Hi all. San Diego was a blast. Thanks to everyone who stopped by my table. This past weekend I was at Wizard World Chicago. Also a good time. I met a bunch of great people. I was set up next to Ivan Brandon, Andy MacDonald and the rest of the NYC Mech crew. They do great stuff, check them out.
Here are a couple con sketches from San Diego and a small (but fun) show I did in Massachusetts. I know there are a bunch more out there so if you have one, send me a scan yo! Particularly if it is a good one. Those who got crappy sketches from me don't need to send in those :)

There is an interview up with me today on Newsarama promoting issue #3 which will be out in September. You can check it out here-
http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=125449On a sad note, comic artist Mike Wieringo passed away earlier this week. I didn't know Mike really much at all. But the one time I met him was years ago at a small show in Chicago. I was showing my portfolio around and he was incredibly gracious and encouraging in his review. I never forgot that. In more recent years he had gone out of his way to compliment my work online, I had hoped to see him at a con again soon to thank him for the encouragement he gave me along the way. I guess that will have to wait. My prayers are with his family.
