This weekend is the Toronto Comic Art Festival, so much of the webcomics world is taking a mid-season hiatus. But for the Transmission X webcomics collective, TCAF is simply the next step in their master plan to take over the world -- or at least take your money.

When Karl Kerschl started taking preorders for his gorgeous The Abominable Charles Christopher book, I first began to suspect the Transmission X conspiracy. Now I'm convinced.

Cameron Stewart, comic artist extraordinaire and creator of the Eisner-nominated Sin Titulo, is debuting a new sketchbook at TCAF. The book "Too Cartoony" will be available to the rest of us comic-consuming masses after the weekend for $15 ($25 with a sketch) at the Transmission X store.

Damn you, Transmission X and your wallet-emptying talent.
