You've Been Waiting For This And You Didn't Even Know It

To say I've been busy lately is a massive understatement.

I've been drawing my ass off. Work is moving forward full steam on the Bowling For Soup comic. This is going to be a real fun book that you wont have to be a fan of the band to enjoy. Brett Pinson is even writing a new story that combines some elements of our childhood television watching and creates a pretty funny adventure that the guys are throw into.

I have new scripts for Killer Robots Love You from Chuck Moore so work will start up on that strip again soon. I'm really looking forward to getting that series going again because it's just so much fun to work on. And I'm doing character designs for an all new comic strip that will hopefully be launching this fall.

Work continues on the Chiller Drive-In comic and there will be some big news on this front coming in the future. Bur non of this is the reason why I missed a whole week of updates here.

For years I've complaining about the local comic con in this area. I don't like that not only doesn't it focus on comics, the artist are treated like dirt and the promoter seems to not even want us at the show. That's fine. If he want to treat us like shit we're really the assholes for going back to the show year after year. But we really had no choice. If we wanted to connect with local fans, they were the only game in town. Until now.

I decided to put up or shut up and I'm helping my good friend, Dennis Barger, promote a brand new show here in the metro Detroit area. Detroit FanFare will be a return to the glory days of comic cons in this area. This show will me a major force on the con scene for years to come and it all will start by pay homage to what has come before, the Detroit Triple FanFare, which was the precursor to the San Diego Comic Con. I promise this will be the biggest, best, must fun comic con to go on in Detroit in years. It will take a lot of work and some times it might take me away from GAPO the Clown, but that's just the way it has to be. I'm proud to be a part of what will be a new chapter in comic con history. Keep checking the Detroit FanFare web site for updates. If you love comics just wait and see what we have in store for you. You're going to love it.
