Thanks to everyone at Fan Expo and especially to Kevin Boyd and Peter Fisico who made the trip possible. The show was a lot of fun, and I’m overwhelmed by the friendliness and generosity from fans and pros alike (Greg - thanks for the donuts! Jeff and Stuart - thanks for the inspiring books!). What I saw of Toronto was pretty great (thanks, Dar and Marsha!) and I hope to come back soon.

NOTE: A CALL FOR SCANS!
I’m trying to collect material for a future sketchbook, so if anyone has gotten a commissioned sketch from me in the past, I’d be grateful if you could send me a 300dpi grayscale scan. My email’s in the ABOUT link on the left. Thanks!

Heading out for Fan Expo 2008 in Toronto tonight.  I’ll be back Monday, but until then, you should check out Steven Gettis’s Hey, Oscar Wilde! It’s Clobberin’ Time!!  I’ve mentioned the site here before, but I recently added my own contribution to Steven’s brilliant and eclectic collection. Enjoy!

Green Arrow & Black Canary #11 is on sale this week and we find out the real story behind Connor’s shooting. This cover was mostly about the color for me, playing the acid greens against the darker forest green of the suit, and all the contrasting warm tones.

Hey, if anyone is interested in picking up the upcoming Green Arrow & Black Canary Wedding Album hardcover (collecting the wedding special and issues 1-5 of the series), you can get it for a great price at Khepri.com. Act quickly though, as that’s the pre-order price and will go up a little by the release date.
