Had a great day at C2E2 yesterday. I was able to pick up a commission from @amartinezbueno.bsky.social Randomly noticed J. Scott Campbell checking out Artist Alley. Met Jeph Loeb, @jamesthefourth.bsky.social Javier Rodriguez, Matteo Scalera, Shawn Crystal, and @stephsmash.bsky.social

Hell yeah! That’s a great piece! I’m currently reading the O’Neal and Cowan run. I met Denys at C2E2 last year and grabbed a commission.

I am at C2E2 & meeting @tomking.bsky.social and @mitchgerads.bsky.social Tom asks if I’m looking forward to seeing Superman. My response was less than enthusiastic. He asked why I answered that way. The guy next to me, “Yeah, why’d you say it like that?”. Superman isn’t dark & brooding. The last…

3 times in as many weeks I have reached out to 3 different comic art dealers, and I have received no response. I guess they don’t need/want the money. #comics #originalart #comicart

This little Batman arrived today. I had picked up some of the Ordinary People Change the World Series for my kids and immediately became a fan. Thank you to @chriseliopoulos.com @bradmeltzer.com and @bostoncomicarts.bsky.social Read comics!

Nice! I ordered a signed copy. I met Chip at C2E2 last year and got a sketch. He’s a fun guy to talk to.

Last C2E2 post. Friday was a blast. Met a bunch of cool artists and writers. The biggest surprise was meeting Dan Mora. He wasn’t posted to attend and I happened to recognize him. I was able to get on his sketch list and blown away by the results. He and his team were incredibly kind. Read Comics!

When I found out Denys Cowan was going to be at C2E2 I jumped at the chance for a commission. What I wasn’t prepared for was his generous nature & his ability to make me feel seen. He seemed genuinely appreciative and was very engaging. A Legendary artist. Read Comics!

Attended C2E2 yesterday. I managed to meet @tomking.bsky.social and @mitchgerads.bsky.social and it was awesome. They bantered back and forth the whole time and were very engaging. Later I managed to run into them while I was walking around and grabbed a photo. Great dudes! Buy comics!

I read this book a couple years ago on a suggestion from @philhester.bsky.social I was pleasantly surprised to come across the trailer for a show.

@alexsegura.bsky.social I just read The Question, All Along the Watchtower, and I am curious for where the idea for the “shotgun” came from. Great first issue!
