So, I'm recovering from an exciting time in Des Moines over the weekend. Wait, let me make sure I just said what I think I said. Excitement...in Des Moines? Yep, that's right. The something-something annual I-CON comic convention was Saturday and it was a blast. Much bigger than the Slash & Bash film fest a few weeks ago, and I met a lot of great people. Thanks a lot for those of you who came out to visit, and to those of you who are visiting this blog for the first time after having met me at the Con.
Unfortunately my phone died shortly after I arrived, so I wasn't able to really take any pictures--wait, let me make sure...Phone...pictures...yep, that's right.
But some of the guys I met there--including Dale Martin, Mike Sullivan, and Bill Hook (actually Bill and I met at S&B weeks before, and he's the reason I even knew about I-CON at all) were taking several pics and I believe we were all thwipping together in one of them. Don't worry, it's not as bad as it sounds.
But if you want to see some great pictures from the event, head over to the gallery on Des Moines's Metromix site. Not to toot my own horn, but--out of twenty-nine pictures total I have two of them. (Three if you count the back of my shirt.) The gallery features 5 creators that were at the event (out of at least a dozen or more), and I'm one of 'em! I guess it helps to be dressed in an obnoxious color.
Don't know what's next on the agenda, other than continuing to work on Issue 5...available soon. But I hope to see you all at the next Con, wherever that might be!

I-Con was a blast - it was great to be able to chat with you there. "Yellow" is a really solid book - you're off to a great start, intriguing characters and some really funny bits. The lunch table seen in #2, for instance ...
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work,
