As part of his North american Tour, Achewood creator Chris Onstad will be signing books at Rocketship, this Friday, November 7th.

Achewood is pretty much the greatest webcomic ever. This is a fact proven by science and religion. TIME Magazine totally agrees! This is the only New York appearance by Mr. Onstad and Mr. Smuckles, so don't miss it!

The event starts at 7 pm.
