San Diego Comic-Con!

Hey guys and gals, in one short week I'll be attending Comic-Con in San Diego along with about 130,000 other people. This year I'm honored to be a special guest of the Con and to celebrate the occasion I finally jumped on the bandwagon and produced a sketchbook that I'll be offering for sale at my table in Artist's Alley (that's table AA-19 by the way). But that's not all! You will also have the opportunity to purchase a limited edition Captain America lithograph for the first time. You following me camera guy? That's right, a 32 page magazine sized sketchbook and a limited edition print. The sketchbook features a lot of art from the past several years including commissions and other rare pieces that have never been published. It was fun putting it together and I hope if you're in attendance you'll come by and take a look at it.

Also, on Friday from 3:00 - 4:00 I'll be holding a panel in Room 8 trying to think of something interesting to say. Come by and help me out by asking an interesting question if you're not already attending one of the zillion other panels going on at the same time.

I plan to be doing sketches at the show, but I unfortunately cannot take pre-orders (for those of you that have asked). I just don't have the time. And while I'm at it, let me apologize for not having time to respond to the email requests that have come my way. If I haven't gotten back to you yet please don't take it personally. I'm still working on catching up.

UPDATE: I'll be signing at the Marvel Booth (#2429) at the following times:

Saturday, July 25th - 5:00pm to 6:00pm
Sunday, July 26th - 12:00pm to 1:00pm

2010 South Florida Ride for Kids announced

The South Florida Ride for Kids launches the national event every year in February, and this year 39 cities across the country will host a Ride for Kids to raise money for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.

This year's South Florida Ride is set for Valentine's Day. "So, please make our kids your sweetheart and help save a life," said website editor, Yuergen Boehmke. "It will be the most memorable Valentine's Day you will ever experience."

Rain or shine, registration opens at 8 a.m., Feb. 14th and closes at 9:45 a.m. with the police escorted ride departing at 10 a.m. from the (New Location) Coral Springs SportsPlex, 2575 SportsPlex Drive, just south of Sample Road and east of the Sawgrass Expressway. All motorcycle riders are welcome to participate. Thanks to the significant support of American Honda Motor Company's motorcycle division, Honda dealers, Honda Rider's Club and other motorcycle industry companies, the program has raised millions of dollars for pediatric brain tumor research.

The Ride for Kids program broke all of its previous fund raising records in 2008, bringing in more than $5.2 million during its 25th anniversary year. The 2010 nationwide program kicks off in South Florida and closes in November in Sarasota, Florida.
