i have a very dedicated follower of the blog and of my work – i am proud to call him a friend. anthony is a native new yorker and when i lived in the city, he’d always show me the best and most authentic hidden parts of that huge playground. anthony always knew {and knows} about the coolest things to do in the city – it seems he always has tickets to the best stuff, too!
a couple years ago, anthony had an extra ticket to the new york comic con… and he was generous to share it with me. i had never heard of it, but once i found out what the event was all about, my camera and i got super excited. the javits center was no stranger to me… i had been there a few times for photo events…once for the PDN expo in 2008. the building alone is cool to visit – when they have events inside, as they typically do, it’s even cooler 🙂
i had a friend at the time that was/is an outstanding illustrator. you can see his work here. i plan to hire him if/when i do a childrens book… he is so incredibly talented. he was an artist at comic con that year… i’m so glad i got to go! it was really fun.
this year, the NYC comic con is this weekend – October 11-14. so in honor of that, here are some fotos i took when i attended this famous event.
this one’s for you, anthony 🙂 Continue reading
