My company once put out calendars with “November” misspelled. Our marketing folks were thrilled when I pointed it out to them at 4:45 on a Friday afternoon.
Uh, either an easy sharpie fix or a not so clever author alias pen name.
Hmm. The cover of the comic zine looks a lot like a recently promoted one. Makes me think of Saturday morning Transformer cartoons that would break midway for advertising featuring kids playing with, of all things, Transformer toys. Not at all subtle, but very effective.
brig… Ideas? Maybe new blog pictures featuring this comic and folks reading your matching zine?
Freud said that there’s no such thing as a mistake. Randie’s “Freudian Slip” here could just be her subconscious disguising her likely pilfered, er… “appropirated,” content piracy. Argh, mateys! Argh!
Oh, I did that my senior year of high school. We wanted to give our awesome drama director a plaque, and I was in charge of that. Sure enough, typo on one of the names. I was very, very thankful that my mom was understanding and fronted me the money to get it remade in a rush, otherwise Banni, not Bonni, would have been a wee bit irritated at me.
Worst pain there is. I found a spelling error in my book, I had to fix it and re-order a bunch. I hand corrected the existing one’s with a note saying there’s no spell check on hand writing.
Heh – I remember when, back in the day, covers would sometimes have a black band with the author’s name in white. The reason? A black tape with white Linotype was placed over the misspelled name on the master for the cover…. (It even happened to Isaac Asimov!)
The Auld Grump, then there is the joy of See Page XX… bane of Quark.

Ha. Just saw I misspelled “appropriated.” Can’t win em’ all.

Spencer Tracy’s first Oscar was labeled (in bronze) Dick Tracy…ouch. It all works out.
