At this time, Nellie Woe's physical and e-stores are closed.
Nellie isn't real, but she does exist. Her soul celebrates comic books, magazines and graphic novels, preferably of the horror variety. She's also all about cheesy b-grade, no budget movies, pin-up art, local artists and musicians, truly independent, moviemaking, RPG's that don't involve horribly over-priced cards and children yelling at one another and people into art, writing, talking, and joking about all the stuff listed above.
Nellie's motto: Reading is cool. Reading comics is cooler.
Who I'd like to meet: People who love comics, writing, painting, drawing, sculpture, modeling, music, photography, the occult, horror movies, moviemaking, independent cinema, and whatever else there is that falls in between. Hell, if you're just a nice person, Nellie would love ya.

Hey Nellie Woe!
I think you are one of my HOTTEST FRIENDS, so I nominated you for my Hot Friends list. But are you really HOT enough to be on Hotties for Sale? Find out!
I know this is kind of a cut and paste message, but every year the amount of friends and fans I've made grows. So if you haven't checked out the strip in awhile, this is the perfect time to jump back on the bandwagon!
Hello Jason Santos. My name is Erica Golter. I came into the shop and spoke with Heath last week. I am interested in helping you establish a better marketing strategy for NellieWoe's, possibly helping get your web site up and fully functioning. If you are interested, you may check out my promotional e-folio at www.goltergraphix.com. I had a piece in the Illustratus Modernus Deux labeled "Tweak," if it rings a bell for you. I have been a fan of Nellie Woe's since I discovered your store last year. I believe it has unlimited potential, and I would love to talk to you about it! Thanks so much. Erica G
