The reports of Mark Twain's death were greatly exaggerated indeed! Why, he's been all over the New York area lately, promoting the smash-hit Mark Twain's Autobiography 1910-2010, as transcribed by the wonderful humorist and cartoonist Michael Kupperman.
Here he is, at the New York Comic-Con this past weekend, signing with our friends at the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund…

… and making lots of new friends! You can check out more photos from his NYCC adventures at Mr. Kupperman's Flickr page.

And earlier this month, Twain made an appearance at Littlefield in Brooklyn for the Twain in the Membrane Comedy Party:

Ben Franklin showed up to challenge Twain to a duel, and apparently won by faking a heart attack.

There was a Twain-lookalike contest…

… and as we reported, yes… frog-humping. Although apparently no one was brave enough to compete! Enjoy tons more awesome pics at photographer Edwina Hay's Flickr page here.
As you can see, things have been zany with our good friend, Twain-y, so stay tuned to the FLOG for future dates in the Twain in the Membrane tour!
