Emerald City Comic Con 2014!








 
I ate at PF Chang's near our hotel a couple of times during the Con.  Got these two fortunes.
What does it mean?!
 
Marty's drawing of Rick as Loki vs. me as Ta' Moon, the Gamma Ray Atlantean!  I like how Marty's name is tattooed on my left shoulder blade, like he branded me when we were both incarcerated in state prison.

I like the fortune cookies. Great shots. One of Ronnie and his wife. That's an unexpected plus.
Looks like a great size con. I sense elbow room and still plenty of traffic.
Love that shot of Marty and Rick at the table. What hard cover book is Marty signing?

It's that time of year. The Cons are coming. I'm going to a couple of events at least. Going to do drawings on free comic day at a comic book store. That's one event.

Great shots Tom.

Marty is signing the "Monsters and Dames" Art Book that ECCC puts out every year made up of contributions from the participating artists. The profits go to some charity I think, right guys? A children's hospital?

So it would then be passed on to Rick, he signs his. Big draw for the table.

It did get people to the table. Good marketing strategy, contributing something to the book.

Yes, the benefits went to Children's Hospital. Only exhibitors can contribute to the book and the contributions are judged. It drove a lot of traffic to the table, but all those folks are on a mission to get all of the signatures they can, so they aren't in purchase mode... we got virtually no business from it.

I like that picture of Marty and I... can I steal that image for my profile pic?

That wolverine was awesome! I'm glad you got Doctor Strange... I only saw him from behind at the con. The AIM team was really cool, too... super slick costumes.

Steal away!

Ha! I love these, Tom. Good times. Those A.I.M. outfits were great.

Glad you like the drawing, too!

I think Wolverine is giving you the 3 pronged bird.

MrGoodson2 said...

Great caricatures! Especially Rick.

Glad I got to see everybody again. Hiromi and I were really looking forward to this dinner reunion.

Always great to see you sir Ronnie!
