The Isotope Communique
James Sime's Mobile Twitter Feed - click here for more Twitter Feed Loading...  Anyone who has ever met a member of the Isotope staff can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that we take our Halloween partying seriously. Which is why each year we hold our annual bash with the glam rock gods and goddesses of TRIPLE COBRA. Who, or what is Triple Cobra? The biggest, the best, the most incredible pure sex confetti cannon blasting white leather and feather be-dazzled "Best Discovery At SXSW 2009" spectacle you may ever see! Click here and agree, the whole world should be this beautiful. So once again we invite you to join us for a night of truly bringing the fun back to All-Hallow's Eve. Thanks to costume designing skills of our very own Kirsten Baldock the Isotope staff continues to rock the San Francisco nightlife with an assortment of awesomely nerdy costumes year in and year out. And this year will be no different, this year we will be recreating in costume form the pride of comics' Silver Age... the single greatest comic book panel ever printed. You read that right... the single greatest comic book panel ever printed! Be there.

The Alternative Press Expo is coming... make your plans now for the most fun weekend of the entire year! It's our biggest, it's our best, and it most certainly is our favorite. The can't-miss annual APE afterparty tradition with the Isotope and 1000 of your closest amigos! Along with the Isotope's planetarily famous after-APE hospitality, we will once again be featuring the TOP SHELF HAPPY HOUR w/ Top Shelf Productions co-publisher Brett Warnock and his surprise variety of brilliant Top Shelf special guest stars from 8 to 9pm. And let's not forget the single best reason to leave the house all year long, the awarding of the seventh annual ISOTOPE AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN MINI-COMICS at 10pm! This year's celebration will be featuring 2008's grand prize champion and rising mini-comics star Jonas Madden-Conner. Who will take home the most sexy (and dangerous) prize in all of comics?! The Isotope's biggest and best party of the year with body-grooving tunes spun by one of SF's finest maestros on the wheels of steel, DJ Bearzbub. This party gets insanely crazy, but don't just take my word for it witness it for yourself, true believers. Bring your spare liver! APE AFTERMATH 09 @ Isotope 326 Fell St @ Gough 8pm - 2am Never a cover 21 and over after 11pm, please Labels: Alternative Press Expo, APE AFTERMATH, events, Isotope Award, minis
