I love comics. That much should be obvious. But what's also great about comics are the people in it. I mean, I don't like people as a general rule, but the folks who work in/with/around comics are really awesome. To wit, I received two packages in the mail today containing the following...
The two posters were from a quick Twitter contest the C2E2 folks had last week. The one on the left is signed by Alex Ross. The show is March 18-22, 2011 and tickets are already on sale here. I was disappointed that I had to miss the inaugural 2010 show, but I'm hoping I can make it this next one.
The other piece on the table is a special Artist's Edition copy of High Moon chapter four. It was an extremely limited run and, I believe, only made available at this year's New York Comic Con. (Coincidentally run by the same folks who run C2E2!) Writer David Gallaher and artist Steve Ellis were nice enough to ask me to write a foreword for the book, which they went ahead and used anyway even though they were just being polite to ask me in the first place. And they're so cool that, not only did they send me a copy of the book, but they added this to the interior...
A print edition of the first three chapters of High Moon can be purchased here while the whole thing can be purchased and read online via comiXology. Good stuff, and it works almost surprisingly well in both print and online!
Big shout-outs today to Kristen over at Reed Pop, and Dave & Steve of the High Moon crew. Some great folks doing some stellar work, and I owe them a huge thank you for brightening up an otherwise long and dreary Monday!
Now Available!
