I'll be at Winston-Salem Comic-Con this Saturday, now at The Annex!

On Saturday, September 3, I'll be at the Winston-Salem Comic Con at the Winston-Salem Fairgrounds Annex, 421 W. 27th Street. It runs from 11 a.m.- 5 p.m. and admission is $5.

This is a new, way bigger location. The lighting will no longer be dungeon-like. The tables will be bigger. I'll have a dollar-off sale on all College Follies issues, and will also have a box of 50 cent comics from my own personal collection I'm trying to get rid. Come buy something so I can afford the increased cost of renting a table!

Winston-Salem Comic Con: The Con Awakens




So Winston-Salem Comic Con was yesterday. Sold a few comics, talked with a handful of humans and even had a visit from my parents. But mostly I was amazed at how many people could cram into the relatively narrow aisles. Half the convention was like watching zombie hordes pass by. I had my screen set up so people could watch me work, but people rarely noticed. They seemed to be generally in too much of a hurry to get down the aisle.

Travis Tomblin with Canada Jack, eh?
The con has grown over the years. When you see Newsroom cosplay at a convention, you know it's definitely reached the next level. In September, it's going to move to the Fairgrounds Annex, which is a much bigger venue more suited for the size of the event.

I had some nice folks selling art on one side of me and to the other I had Travis Tomblin, a comic creator/writer from West Virginia who does a superhero comedy series called Canada Jack. Amazingly, Canada Jack is a public domain character from the 1940s. In Tomblin's absolutely hilarious modern take on it, we find out not all Canadians are polite. Why? Reasons, Johnson,
reasons!

I practically finished page four of issue five at the con. I put the final polish on it just now. At the very least, it's great the con got me to do another page. 

I'll post some panels from it soon and hopefully start on page five  this week.

And one sad, extremely random casualty of the con was my custom Lavender Ranger figure. One of his spikes fell out when I took him out of my convention supply box. I'll try to super glue it back on and see if it holds

Man down! Man down!

Working on page four...Psychoboy meets Obama!

So here's page four of issue five where Psychoboy meets Obama, I've been working on it for today's Winston-Salem Comic Con. I'll have my laptop and monitor with me so attendees can watch me finish it up!

It runs from 11 a.m.- 5 p.m. and admission is $2.  I haven't worked on the comic in awhile. I'll see if I can get a page (or two) going that I can work on at the con. Psychoboy sends his best!
