A brief note about the L.A. (Claremont) Comic Con: The Con was small, but it was a first-time effort, and done with little promotion, so all said, it wasn't a bad turn-out. I'm not sure it did much for me -- certainly not as far as my wallet is concerned -- but I was able to network a bit, which can always be helpful down the road. I also met and was able to chat a bit with Danny Miki and Dean White, both very talented, and both very nice persons. It's always encouraging to get feedback from other professionals.

As it will be a monthly event, I'll be attending in the future to monitor the growth and see how it develops. Hopefully it becomes a significant event for the community of Claremont and local shops. Only time will tell. Here's a small video-clip taken at the event. That's another artist, Rob Zailo, there at the table with me. I'm the one gesticulating, proving I have Latin blood coursing through my arms, from the elbows down. It also proves my old boss, Mr. Sherman, was correct after all: I can't talk and draw at the same time.
