As much as the Company has enjoyed its stay in the City of Brotherly Love, the time has come to move on down the road.

The Company has also struck up a relationship with the fledgling Nice Things Han Made store, outfitting them with a variety of message cards.

But Philadelphians need not mourn the too lugubriously, as the Misanthrope Specialty Co is leaving a little piece of itself behind, replenishing the shelves of the Art Star Gallery and Boutique with all manner Company goodies.

MULTIPLE CRAB WOUNDS...
by Erkuden Sakana, Company Secretary;
Last night, while visiting the American Visionary Art Museum, the Misanthrope Specialty Co. was invited to spend the night in the impeccably curated home of Uncle Ted, a veritable patron saint of the arts.
After a somewhat rushed Company meeting, and knowing that conditions for future Sunday Sessions wouldn't always be ideal on the road, the opportunity to hold an auxiliary meeting and make art in such comfortable and inspiring surroundings was a luxury not to be passed up.

This tasty, salty, spicy roadfood treat is worth the heartburn, and becomes increasingly harder to find the farther one ventures form the area.

No trip to Maryland is complete without the consumption of Chesapeake Bay blue crab in all its forms. And while steamed crabs and crab cakes might be the obvious choices while dining in Baltimore, the Company's Minister of Acquisitions was sure to stock up on Utz "The Crab Chip" potato chips before doubling back to Philadelphia.(photo by Reverend Aitor)

BULLEIT PROOF...
by Erkuden Sakana, Company Secretary;
The misanthropes trickled into Baltimore over the course of the day, eventually coming together for another session of Sunday protocols, business and collaborative illustration.
(work in progress)
The lack of a private meeting place and the threat of rain forced the meeting into the Golden West Cafe; a Plan B venue the Company's Location Manager had previously scouted out and deemed appropriate due largely to their strict no-cellphone policy and to the availability of a mixological wonder dubbed the Bacon Bulleit.
This tasty little cocktail, consisting of bourbon, lemon juice, a hint of maple syrup and garnished with a strip of applewood smoked bacon proved to be a hands-down favourite.
Commissioned illustration for "Savoy Corpse Reviver" -- appearing in the next issue of Pilot Illustrated
Among the Company's sundry projects, the misanthropes are presently working on a series of illustrations commissioned to accompany one of the short stories in the upcoming edition of Pilot -- a Toronto-based literary journal.
