I have SO much to post about the Comicon today, that I've decided to do it in sections - this might take me a couple posts. 
So, I've decided to break up the posts into three categories... Original Art, Owly & The Con.
First up to bat is some original art that we acquired last year. I never posted it, and it's really fun! The First one is by Franco It's Aquaman swimming with some penguins and the one next to it is by Art Baltazar and it's Captain Marvel! Franco and Baltazar are co-creators of the Tiny Titans comic which I read every month... Aww Yeah Titans!
This Kermit was done By Amy Mebberson. She does comics for The Muppetts and Monsters, Inc. I bought a Monster's, Inc graphic novel from her and she threw in this sketch of Kermit the Frog for Free... It's not easy being green so she put him on Orange paper!
This is my beloved character Owly... I got this original art from his artist Andy Runton. Andy was so much fun to talk to but I will save that for the Owly Post. Here Owly is all tucked in with his friends Wormy and Snaily. Andy will draw whatever you want Owly to be... It's a killer deal!
The next few sketches are all Eric's ... well they're "ours" but Eric is the one who really loves this art. The first is Batman...
By : Dustin Nguyen who draws for "Batman Streets of Gotham ".
Here's a Captian Marvel by Derek Fridolfs who is an inker for Batman Streets of Gotham; but he enjoys drawing Captian Marvel as well.
The Next sketch is a Green Lantern Kilowog. It was drawn by Patrick Gleason who does Green Lantern Corps.
Now, here's a happy surprise... I stumbled upon these guys when looking for Eric and Lee. They wrote / created my favorite Halloween book; Dear Dracula.
Joshua Williamson & Vicente Navarrete were both at the booth, and I was so bummed that I didn't bring my Dear Dracula book!
Vincente was the artist of the two and he did a sketch of the vampire in the book for me for free!
Eric and I both agree it was one of the best of the day... especially for the price!
Here's the last sketch we got as we were walking out the door of the comicon; Wall-E by Derek Thompson. Derek was a story artist for the Wall-e movie, which is my favorite pixar movie... hands down.
We had a really great time! It was so awesome seeing art we love and seeing the people behind it!
