What I'm Reading ... @iambeanpie

(OC sporting his Beanpie gear)

The homie Shaun hit O and I up with the first volume of his comic book, Beanpie, in addition to a bunch of other promotional material. It's been a while since I read a comic book. I dig Beanpie's real life approach AND it's based in Connecticut (the state I technically call home). Anyway, Shaun is definitely doing his thing and this is just the first issue in the series. It's definitely enjoyable. Check it.
Beanpie is written by Shaun Bolden. It started in 2007 and is part of an ongoing saga. After two years of writing and promoting a story, an artist was found. Dino Diaz joined up with Shaun and they began to work on their first comic strip which was in Urbanology Magazine in March 2010. On June 5th 2010 they released their first comic book entitled, Beanpie: The Hustle Begins at the Comic Convention located in Toronto.. The response at the release was a positive one and the two continue to reach out to people and embrace new fans daily. Beanpie can be found on eBay. If you are in Toronto you can find the comic at Silver Snail, A Different Booklist, Beguiling, or Studio 47. The graphic novel is scheduled tpo be released in December. Stay tuned and READ BEANPIE!
