Got to see a lot of my friends, meet some great fans, and get The God Machine out there!
Also the 2nd volume of Fraggle Rock (published by Archaia) finally came out! (Your’s truly contributed art for it and so did ~lcibos)
Not to mention the illustrated novel, Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes also came out, which i contributed 2 illustrations to that as well!

I also finally got to meet the lovely damphyr :heart:
Speaking of awesome dA peeps, Deviant art did a Video interview with me at SDCC! It’s terribly quirky!
Check it out!

San Diego Comic Con 2011!

*TIMES HAVE BEEN UPDATED AND CONFIRMED, SEE TEXT BEFORE SCHEDULE IMAGE.

Hey everybody!

It’s that time again, San Diego Comic Con time!

So here’s the scoop!

I will be at the Archaia booth #2635 (between the Image and MARVEL booths) and Archaia’s satellite booth #4401-4500 (confirmed) Please see attached graphic for specific times listed each day. All times are subject to change and possible extra time at the booth as well– sorry it’s not an exact science yet, but Archaia is going to have 70 creators/artists at their booth this year. INSANE!

So what’s happening with me at the Archaia booth? Glad you asked! ;D

–this will be the first time the God Machine hardcover will be at San Diego!  YAY!  So those of you who have been waiting for it (and a signature from me) will get their chance! Be sure to get there ASAP if you’ve been waiting for the LEATHER BOUND EDITION of The God Machine. Archaia only brings limited quanities– so be aware, they GO FAST! 

Also I will be signing for Fraggle Rock, and the PREMIERING prose novel I contributed 2 illustrations for- Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes! Written by my partner in crime, Andrew E.C. Gaska! –Lots of awesome news for that! At Archaia’s booth there will be exclusive collectible Apes trading cards, a walk around Zira (from the original Apes movies), and special signings with artists from the book – Jim Steranko! Dave Dorman! and Dan Dussault! 

 

More exciting BLAM! Ventures news is that Critical Millennium issue #4 should  be out for this convention!

In addition- I will have a limited amount of prints on me, but that’s about it for this con. No commissions this time around. But if you want one when I get back from the con please check out my commission rules/rates!

I think that’s it for now. See all of you soon!

The DRAGON wrap up!
First off, DRAGON*CON was amazing!!! Thank you all for coming out! I had an amazing time meeting a lot of you guys!

Photos [if anybody is interested]
Thursday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday
Monday

Thanks to Thom Trainer, Anne-Marrie [DRD] of People’s Republic of Venture, Jessica *DoubtingSalmon :heart:, the Dragon*con staff & and the D*C volunteer squad of awesome, the guy who stalked me with his evil glare [wait, no thanks to him, he was made of awful!] and my amazing friends: Alma Balderas :heart:, Marc Ilagan of Venture Bros Blog, Tiffany Sauber, Kate Sullivan, Holly and Marilee of Very Venture Vodcast, and so many more… seriously, you guys are amazing!

Special loving thanks to Doc Hammer :icondoc-hammer:, for calling me a bastard infront of a 1,000 or so people :heart: That was amazing! [this is not sarcastic at all. Seriously, that was sweet.No one else gets to do that though.] –and thank you sir for so much more. You are amazing, always.
[and yeah, there's video of Doc calling me a bastard.. ^_^ at 0:43 note: Triana [my accomplice] is Jessica *DoubtingSalmon

Always thanks to my poor husband, Jim :iconmrmoldavia:, who at conventions puts up with a totally different Chan and always does an amazing job. [-despite him being fired every 2 minutes. ;D He makes a mean "Hawaiian Coffee" though.]

I look forward to returning next year to Dragon*con, and i suggest the same to everybody else. You’ll never get to go to a more amazing convention than this…
With that said, time to move on to my favorite city of all time…

NY-COMIC-CON!!!

New York Comic-con, Oct. 8th-10th. I will be sharing an artist table with my amazingly talented cousin, Lindsay Cibos :iconlcibos: and the illustrative, Maximo V. Lorenzo :iconspeedking:!

I will probably also make appearances over at the Archaia table too!

Rumors are this…there might be advance copies of THE GOD MACHINE graphic novel at this show!!! –I make no promises…But how cool would it be to get my signature, Doc Hammer’s [on his foreword], some of my pin-up artists- Lindsay Cibos, Alex-Eckman Lawn, and a few others to sign their pages all at NYCC? It’d be like a lil scavenger hunt! Actually- that sounds pretty fun!

At any rate, I’ll have prints as usual. Let me know what you’d like to see if you’re coming. I’m probably going to have less Venture Brothers prints at this con, so if you want any of those PLEASE request.

Further information, like table # and any panel info to come later.

Can’t wait to see you guys!

Local Signings & Such

My fellow Orlando people, so far I have one event planed for Oct. 30th at Sci-fi City. I will be signing my book there and getting into the Halloween spirit. Come out and support these guys, and me too!

More to come, I hope!

Reminder!

THE GOD MACHINE is for pre-order. Find out all about where you can get it! [Click Me]

Also, commissions will be opened up soon.. I meant to open them sooner, but I’ve been kinda sick lately and i’m starting on the short FRAGGLE story i’m illustrating… so patience my darlings, patience! ;)

Til later…

:heart:

It’s that time again! [just 3 days now]

Time to head back to the mother of all conventions, Dragon*Con!! [Sept 3-6, Atlanta, GA.]

I will be taking commissions as well! -I also plan on having an exclusive Dragon*con print for the event as well! [VERY Limited quantities.]

Sadly, I wanted to have Dragon*con to be the debut of THE GOD MACHINE’s Graphic Novel- but it wasn’t possible. :( [Archaia is still in process of getting it out to the printers.]

NOW DON’T FORGET: I will be on 2 panels!!! [please come if you can! I need all the support I can get!]
