After finding out about Box Brown's comics here at Robot 6 last year, I've been following his work intently. And now I get the opportunity to show off a little gem of a story Brown just posted online for free. It's a short Brown wrote and illustrated called "Sock" about a teenage boy getting drunk and trying to hit on a girl, and being sucked into a sidebar conversation with his nerdish friend. In true Brown style he finds a way to work talk about pro wrestling, but I'm not complaining ... brother.

Brown is offering "Sock" as a print minicomic for sale online and from his convention appearances, so I was shocked to see him put it online for free -- but hey, it's great comics so I can't turn it down.
