Comic Con Postscript

/

San Diego Comic Con has finally left our fair city, scattering to the wind like a plague of locusts, not to return until next year's harvest! When I wasn't working at the IDW Publishing booth (Come visit us at booth #... oh), I managed to snag a few cool things:

–Bought a few prints from Kris Kehasukjaren, who draws some wonderful images! I bought the DBZ, Studio Ghibli, and Smash Bros. prints, but would have gotten a few more if I had more money to spend. Check out his stuff at https://www.etsy.com/shop/minionmeshop!

–Boys Club by Matt Furie. Some truly ridiculous stoner humor. Lots of gross stuff, but I couldn't stop laughing. I'm a simple man with simple tastes.

–Hip Hop Family Tree vol. 4 by Ed Piskor. The three previous volumes have all been fantastic, and Ed Piskor is keeping up the quality. Can't wait to dig in!

I also managed to go to a single panel, the Samurai Jack panel where they showed some new footage for the upcoming Adult Swim show. All I can say is... I owe a lot of my creative career—past, present, and future—to Genndy Tartakovsky and the Sam Jack crew. Beautiful, beautiful stuff.

You know what else is almost as good as all these things? Time Cheetah! Check out today's new page, it has one of my favorite jokes. (Hint: it involves the word FUCK)

Boy do I LOVE Comic Con!

/

Comic Con just started last night, and the world of pop culture holds it's breath! Unlike my labor-slave brother, who toils down in the comic mines, the Con is just a grand old time for me. Hooray for temporary unemployment!

While much is made of the great reveals that happen at Comic Con, I also find it to be a great way to check the pulse of the geek/nerd community. What's up with the kids these days?

1. The Convention was COVERED in Pokemon Go lures. The stench of them filled every corner. Every crevice. Every thought. 

2. I'm seeing a lot more parent/child groups. While Sunday, Kids Day, has always had a lot of children, seeing so many since even Preview Night (which you can only enter by buying a 4 day ticket, AND an additional cost) implies that love of geek/nerd culture is being passed down to kids by their own parents. It's pretty magical, actually. 

3. Time Cheetah is, by far, the hottest new webcomic out there. The Con is CRAZY for Time Cheetah. Take my word for it.

That's it for today, enjoy another new page of Time Cheetah. I'm off to wait in line wearing a magnificent Furiosa cosplay. Bye!

Comic Con! Dear Lord!

Did you know that San Diego Comic Con starts this week? I did, 'cause I'm working there! I figured I could take this chance to list my 5 favorite things to do when the biggest geek convention in the U.S. comes to town.

1. Meet all sorts of new creators: artists, writers, colorists, newcomers, old pros, everyone!

2. Cry.

3. Force my way through the relentless, suffocating crowd, composed of people of all races, ages and creeds, all here to feed at the trough of pop culture!

4. Lie down in a quiet spot and close my eyes, but never sleep. Never.

5. Find a new exciting comic, TV show or movie that I can share with all my friends!

You may have a different list of favorites (SDCC's got a lot to offer), but if you can relate to that last one, how about sharing this cool new Time Cheetah comic with some of your friends? I'm sure they'd love it!

Enough from me, I gotta get back to staring blankly at signing schedules while keeping my hands from shaking. Enjoy the new page and thanks for stopping by!
