*NEW! The Girl with the Donut Tattoo
The Girl with the Donut Tattoo premiered this summer at San Diego Comic-Con International.
Drawn by Paul Horn, creator of Cool Jerk (also my husband) and written by me, it’s a semi-autobiographical collection of strips about food and food blogging.
It’s 24 pages with color and features four recipes. Retail price is $5 and is currently in its second printing! Please go to Cool Jerk to order.
Thank you for everyone that came out (or sent someone that attended the show) and bought the comic! (Not Bourdain though. He got a free comic. It’s the perk of being a celeb-chef mentioned in the book.)

Darlene, this is so cute. I love the idea, and the title and cover image are a perfect match. Looking forward to seeing it!
That’s cool!
Now I want Paul to do one for the Wine Harlots.
Too cute! I can’t wait to see more!!
That is so amazing! Will you guys have a booth at Comic-Con?
Thanks! We’ve actually had a table in Small Press the last 9 years but for Paul’s comic Cool Jerk. We’ll be at the same place again promoting Cool Jerk and The Girl with the Donut Tattoo this year.
I think Anthony Bourdain is on every woman’s list!
How exciting Darlene! Love the title! So, do you really have a donut tattoo?
If you have any issues left after the Con, please save one for me.
Hi Darlene ~ Congrats! Will you be selling these online as well?
I “know” you through JustJenn; I’ve been reading her blog for about a year and a half now…
So nice to finally “meet” you!
