I’ll probably leave this up here at the top all next week as I try to make deadlines before the show. Drop a comment if you think you’ll be going to San Diego and might see me. Most of my appearances are piled onto Thursday (I may not come in at all Saturday, it’s a [...]

I meant to post the rest of my memories of the Emerald City show this weekend, but now it’s all gone. Thanks for nothing, brain! But my studio, PERISCOPE did haikus of the experience and in a way that tells you much more than if I’d had a digital camera and took notes. I do [...]

Spring finally remembered where Portland was this weekend, just in time for the Stumptown Comics Fest. That’s right, it wasn’t a CON, it was a FEST. And it was full of great work. What I liked best is that artists don’t try to mug you to look at their work like when you walk through [...]

Hey people who can get to the Northwest, this weekend is the Stumptown Comics Fest! Tomorrow and Sunday at the Lloyd Center Doubletree Hotel in Portland, Oregon from 10am to 6pm; $6 each day. I will be cruising the floor incognito. Spot and identify me and you’ll get a no-prize. I might sometimes sit for [...]

Back from Calgary, thanks to show host Stephen Fuller for keeping us alive and constantly plying us with meat dishes such as they enjoy in Alberta. A few new people picked up Atlas and Interman, so the word is spreading on those fronts.. Matthew Clark was fully booked up with sketch requests, and of course [...]

Don’t forget, Canadians, I’ll be at the Calgary Comics and Toy Expo at McMahon Stadum this Sunday. Matthew Clark will be there, I’m sure of it because he flew in with me. Also you can meet J. Torres, Pop Mhan, Marcus To, and Dario Carrasco. Once again I was detained in Immigration at Vancouver Airport, [...]

And that bubbling growth is going to pop at the end of September! Oh, sorry for the gross metaphor, but I wanted people to notice since I’ve been remiss in promoting Portland’s emerging jewel of comics shows. Here’s the general rundown, cribbed from Steve Lieber… Portland’s fourth annual STUMPTOWN COMICS FEST is coming September 29th-30th, [...]

Comicon is gone. It will not come again for another cycle. You will not have to press through walls of unseemly flesh until then. Whew. My big change was to not set up at a table, and just do my meetings and signings as a free-wheeling, happy-go-lucky loose cannon. But now every day is Saturday [...]

The crushing mass of humanity that is Comicon International, that is. The temptation to run out to the harbor in back and commandeer one of the sailboats and head off to a bright new horizon- is strong. There is a lot of neat stuff to see here, but the walls of flesh block my view [...]

I’m not going to make it easy. I’m kind of tall so that might help, but there’ll be giant Naruto characters who are bigger, plus the collective stank of thousands. If you really want to get me for signing or some such, you could check by Steve Lieber’s table in Artist Alley if you’re on [...]

Here’s my Comicon International appearance schedule in case you want to try and find me. Get ready… SUNDAY 11:00-12:00 MARVEL BOOTH Whew. That’s it. Yes, I’m going to be there more- Friday and Saturday too, but I’m mostly doing meetings and suchlike. I was supposed to be at the Mondo Marvel panel, but I’m not [...]

WHY do I have a picture of me with my glowing thumb like I gots the Power Cosmic? Because Pat Sun has put up his photo gallery of the show! And no one documents the living s- out of a comics show quite like Patrick. I suggest you go check it out. Hey, he got [...]

The word ‘question’ really gets weird and loses all familiarity when you look at it for a bit. Here’s the sketch I did for our own Eric N., where I predict Vic will have to tear the note loose to read it since I jammed the knife into the stone Excalibur-style. Eric wrote a thorough [...]

Man, I’ve got to post another convention sketch before I’m tempted to make the Red Skull portrait a permanent fixture. I just never get tired of imagining dialogue for him. So here’s the piece I did for Chris Ferguson, which again ended up being an odd posing- it feels like the Agents of Atlas cut [...]

“Who, ME… kill Captain America?” John Popa was good enough to send me this digital camera shot of the Red Skull I did in his sketchbook at Heroes Con. He comes across as your creepy old uncle here, as if he posed for a photographer. Thanks John!
