to boldly go....

it's the number 1 flick in north america right now, so i'm sure i don't need to tell you how FREAKING AMAZING the new star trek movie is, but just in case: THE NEW STAR TREK MOVIE IS F**CKING INCREDIBLE!! as a kid who grew up watching the original series and was disappointed by the tepid bland pablum of "the next generation" and all of the other namby-pamby series that followed it, this movie was a breath of fresh air and a true return to everything that made star trek great in the first place. captain kirk hitting on everything that walks, shit blowing up left and right, crew members in mini-skirts and bad scottish accents- it's all here, and so much more. well-written, well-cast, and extremely well-executed. if you haven't seen it yet, you need to- now. i know i will be again. hoot!

and just because, here's another set of nico stinghe's awesome photographs. nico will hopefully be shooting the new zbq catalogue later this year, and the next new shirt design is also based on one of his photos. did i mention that i like his stuff? well i do. yes, i think i do.

ATAK of the killer t-shirts

so i was hoping to post a brand new shirt today and i spent the morning trying to print a prototype. but, as so often happens with screen printing, the print wasn't really working as planned, so now it's "back to the drawing board" and hopefully we'll get it done next week. so in the meantime, i thought i'd make another print available for pre-order 'til then. robin antiga's ATAK is one of the older prints we've done on shirts, going back to about 2004, and is still one of my favorites.







and just to keep things interesting, i'm also making another color variation available as well: ATAK (red).





these shirts will be available for pre-order on any size, color or style of your choice, and at a $3 discount, until midnight may 15th. after this run we'll probably be cleaning out the screens, so there's a good chance it won't be printed again for a long time. you have been warned!!

krushty

just posted some krushbot shirts to the database- got some black, asphalt and royal blue t-shirts in stock and ready for immediate shipment.



started working on a new print today, i'm hoping to wrap it up tomorrow and be able to get it online for pre-orders by tomorrow night!

did you know that i do custom shirt printing? well, i do. in fact, i do it so much that i'm thinking of posting some pictures of some of the stuff i do from time to time. i just did these really cool hoodies for a local comic book shop the other day, and last week i did like 360 shirts for a band from ottawa called today i caught the plague. if you are looking for a reliable screen printer to help you out with your band, t-shirt line or team shirts, you could do worse than me. i've been doing this for about 12 years and, i dare say, i'm starting to get pretty good at it. so if you're interested write me at zero@zeroboutique.com.

coming soon: some fresh new polo shirts in prepschool, a contest winner, another LOVECATS set and much more. glee!

speaking of t-shirts (and such)...

just posted some speaking of shirts to the database- everything you see is in stock and available for immediate, free, shipping anywhere in the world. in stock shirts always go in the mail within 24 hours- often much quicker.





so you may have noticed i didn't put up a "shirt of the week" this week. that's because i'm working on a new print that i really wanted to put up next, but it's taking a little longer than expected. plus i'm just getting caught up with printing the last batch of pre-ordered shirts (that being krushbot- and there should be some of those going up on the site within a day or 2 as well). when i decided to do this pre-order thing again, i said i wouldn't allow myself to fall behind- so if that means there are some weeks when nothing is available for pre-order, then so be it. keeps things a little more interesting, anyway. i should have something new for you by the weekend, so keep your eyes peeled.

loving the new shop! if you're in halifax come by and say hi- we're at 2823 isleville (one street west of agricola, just north of almon). we don't have the store set up yet, but it should be some time before the end of may. i'll post some pictures here when the place is looking a little more presentable.....getting some contest entries so i will see about announcing a winner by the weekend as well. get a crack at a free shirt, folks- you'll find the contest on the right hand side of the blog (or possibly on the bottom if you're on a low res monitor). peace out and talk soon.
