Thanks for stopping by my table and saying hello!
And it was fun taking pics with you.
It was good to see all you friendly Bendis boarders at the show and
at the hotel lobby and bar
All hail Bendis!
Bendis La La La La!
Seriously, you were great.
I'm glad Brian has such wonderful readers here.
And thanks for all the support of the M.O.B. and for making our ICON
imprint succesful!!!
It was great to see so many Powers and Kabuki readers and hear your feedback about our work.
Warmest wishes!
David

I just had to throw this one in.
Issue eight is in stores tomorrow. Check it out!
HI Raven,
I read the issue you gave me, I think it was #8, when I was on the
plane.
And I was very impressed by your writing on it.
In answering your question, I guess I had not read it before, cause
some of the Images I had seen made me think it was not really my cup of
tea.
But the cover, and art, and story on the issue I read was a welcome
change of pace from most things I see at cons and was very emotional. I
can see why people really appreciate your writing.
PS. Sorry for running off with your silver pen in Arizona
Glad you picked it up from me in Texas

David,
Thanks for being such a great guy on top of being such an amazing
writer / artist. Donna is really enjoying the trade and Bryan had a blast
playing gymnast with you in the lobby Saturday.
You make people smile.
Jason
That was so fun! It looked like Bryan really got a kick out of it! I did
too
It was great to meet your family.
And thanks for the shirt!
I'm glad you made the trip!

the intreptive dance, but never fear! next time.
I did however, stop by your table on Sunday and you were MIA, and
I was a busy little bee in artist alley tis' a good thing though!
Until next time, keep up the beautiful work... the trades I'm reading
of Kabuki are awesome by the way!

Was great to see you.
I was willing to pop down the interpretive dance at the bar
But at least we got some fun pics!

Oh..
I sent a young lady to you late Sunday. She was a really cute girl
with dark hair and glasses who I met in line for Michael Turner. The only
book she had read was Fatham, so I suggested that she go and see you and
pick up Kabuki.
She found me later and thanked me. You had hooked her up and, if
I heard her right, had even given her a set of masks, which she ADORED!
So thank you for making me a man of my word! I told her she would
not regret going see you and that any thing she bought would be money well
spent... She clearly felt the same way.
Jeffery
Thanks for that!
You are always welcome to send the young ladies to me
Happy to make you a man
of your word
I'm glad the owner of your shop liked the print I signed to the store!
Great to see you and Tonia again!
Best!

You looked like you were having a lot of fun at the show.

Mack you were awesome! Thanks for being so cool. Like I said I loved
your artwork. It was really cool to get a personalized Daredevil picture. I think next to the Silent Devil guys you had the funnest table. Sweet girls that ran at guys and hit them. And then you sitting there taking
compliments left and right. I liked hanging out at your table, thanks for
not kicking me out.
Good to see you there!
You seemed like you were have a great time in and out of the con
You are always welcome at the table.
But I know the ladies there at the Beckett Booth were the REAL draw
I have to give Jeff Amano, his daughter Mandy Amano, Claire Beckett
and all of the Beckett crew (Gabriel, Sonya, Jennifer, Jamie) a big shout
out for hosting me at their booth and bringing me to the show as thier
guest at the con.
I'll be doing the cover to their new trade paperback of RUULE: Ganglords of Chinatown that should ship in April.

how much for the original art of that wonderfull 2 page spread in
the avengers?????
that was just awesome!!!!!
and it would look great framed on my wall!!!!
your da man!!!
Hey thanks!
I've been getting a lot of inquiries about that Avengers piece.
(The only Avengers-related work I've ever done).
I had that on display in Portland and at the Texas show.
I have it priced at $1,500.
That's pretty much the starting price for a double pager from me.
I'm glad to see that image in the issue has been getting such a good
response so far.
Some people had preview copies of the issue at the con.
I guess it shipped to all stores today.

Sorry for putting my hands on you
I'll act better next time!
I kid
Hey thanks all for mentioning me! In mostly good ways! Even though Eddy
Newell called me a mutant freak (I'm not sure if that was a compliment
or not
I really enjoy the cons.
I try to be all ready for them. but like Bendis said, usually our bedtime
is at the time of day the con starts, and it may take a day for me to catch
up to the new schedule.
So If we ever spaz out give us the benifit of the doubt
Usually when I spaz out people still seem to like it
Or if you ever feel like there is a misunderstanding, feel welcome
to bring it up to me and I will do my best to make it right.
Usually everything seems to go great, but I never seem to have enough
time to do sketches for everyone who wants it.
But some of these stories are funny

Anyone know where can I get my hands on a Cirle of Blood Hardcover?
Hey Will,
Thanks for looking for it
The Image version of the Hardcovers are all sold out.
There are still a couple of the Hardcovers from the previous publisher
left, but they have a different type of cover etc.
let me know if you are interested in those and I'll check to make sure I still have them and give you more info on them.
Best,
David
