Do you JahFurry?  Big thanks to The Happy Corp; their event recap is posted verbatim belowjahfurry toast.jpg
We pulled out all the stops for the official JahFurry Style happy hour. See those flowers? We planted them MONTHS in advance.

We invited our friend, JahFurry (AKA Jeff Newelt) of SMITH Magazine, MWW Group and ACT-I-VATE to peacefully commandeer our official happy hour. We thought the Toast and Team-up would be a small soiree, we should have know that with JahFurry involved we were in for a gargantuan gala.

On the Roster for JahFurry Toast:

Eye-Full:
Writer Doug Rushkoff and illustrator Liam Sharps graphic novel, TESTAMENT has seen huge success this year.
SHOOTING WAR, written by Anthony Lappé and illustrated by Dan Goldman, is featured in online mag, SMITH. At the recent Comic-Con Anthony and Dan signed a deal with Warner Books to put their graphic novel into print. (check out their pics here)

Tasteful:
We kept JahFurrys crowd happy with a cornucopia of free food and drinks provided by Lasso Pizza, Sapporo Beer, High Ball Energy Drinks, Brooklyn Brewery Beer, Pravda Vodka, and Dewars Finest Scotch Whiskies.

Ear-Full:
Jah Furry and beatboxer Adam Matta hit the stage hard with their improv spitting and we kept the beats of SHOOTING WAR soundtrack producer DJ Spookys spinning when Jah needed to break for a little social rotation.

Resourceful:
Forget riding coat tails, one of our clever (and might we add stylish) thehappycorp pins rode Dan Goldman's breast pocket into PublishersWeekly.com. Keep scrolling, its at the bottom!

Check our friends' flicker photos from the party.

Man, wish I could have been there...

Kudos to my partner in crime, the force that is Doug Rushkoff.

Thanks for the trip man.

Best,

Liam.
