2016 Phoenix ComiCon

Post by JCP »

I have my pass for the event. I haven't heard who from VEI will be appearing. I'm actually excited to try to see Arthur Adams and Whilce Portacio together and get my Longshot series signed (or at least #1). There don't seem to be a lot of great guests so far, but they usually get solid talent as he convention gets closer.

I'll be there. I got a double booth.

The guest list at that show is usually great.

Love love the big Phoenix show.

So it looks like David Baron is the only VEI guest so far. I thought I read somewhere that FVL was coming but he isn't on the official guest list.

Jeff Pina just posted his Phoenix Comic Con exclusive cover for 4001 AD. He'll be at the show signing. I've talked to him at a few shows and he is a GREAT guy! I would imagine they might bring him over to the Valiant booty but then again that would take him away from his own table.

Anyway - very friendly, very good dude. Support him please!

Getting stoked! I'm trying to figure out how many books of David Baron's I need to bring to get a "first signed copy" chance.

Had a great time today! Got to meet elveen and David Baron did a sweet commission for me of a regenerating Abram after getting wilted by Mishka Divinity II blank sketch cover. There was a vendor a few booths from Elveen that had a Valiant dump in a $1 long box. Low and behold there was a Shadowman #13 1:50 Davis variant. I couldn't believe it. Most comic vendors were very overpriced, but elveen got me a deal on a fun book. Great cosplay all day and overall was a great start to the con.

I tried to find Jeff but couldn't find him. The guys at the Valiant table said he was next to David Baron in Artist's Alley. I went there, met David, and then asked the guy sitting somewhat next to him if he was Jeff. I got a weird stare and he said, "no, I'm not Jeff." I apologized and told him he just looked like a Jeff and David smiled. I picked up a couple of copies of Jeff's 4001 AD variant. I'm more than happy to part with one copy if anybody is interested. I paid for one at the Valiant table for $15 I think but my LCS got me a free copy (without bag and board). I'll part with that one for essentially the cost of shipping if somebody wants it. I put it in a bag and board of course.

Jeff was just a few yards away from the Valiant booth, sort of behind where Aspen comics was. He is a really great guy. He works at a LCS here in Phoenix. He Was doing sketches for FCBD at a shop here and when I asked he quoted me $15 or $25, I forget which. I said ok and my daughter handed him her sketchbook and said she wanted a catwoman. Jeff says, wait, it's for you? No charge then. Seriously, he is awesome. He also heard my daughter talking about how she likes catwoman because she and catwoman both love jewels. So he threw the diamond into the picture.
