Heroes Con 2011 - Part 8

Three of the many (12) pieces of art that I purchased at Heroes Con...

Jack Tenrec and Hannah Dundee by Robbi Rodriguez



Jack Tenrec & Hannah Dundee by Robbi Rodriguez - this was another pre-order; I sent the man my money and the names of the characters I wanted a month before the show but I didn't hear back from him; I was nervous about whether he had finished it because he hadn't posted it on his blog even though he had posted there a number of other commissions he had done; bottom line is he did a great job with it

Pirate Dreams by Robin Holstein



Pirate Dreams by Robin Holstein - very impressive work by an artist with whom I was previously unfamiliar; I asked for something involving a female pirate and a djinn and left the rest up to him

Exterminators #6 page 8



Exterminators #6 p8 by Tony Moore (pencils) and Ande Parks (inks) - I ran across Tony Moore's table early in the show. He had a box full of pages for sale. I rumaged through them twice before settling on this one. I'm sure the guy standing behind me, waiting his turn, for approximately 10 minutes, didn't appreciate that. *shrug* I've wanted to own a Tony Moore piece probably since I first saw his work on Walking Dead. This is my kind of page: no action, it is more like a page of meaningful interaction.

Heroes Con 2011 - Part 4

Heroes Con 2011
Jun 3, 4, 5
Charlotte, NC

Two of the many (8) books I purchased at Heroes Con...





Frankie Get Your Gun #1 by Robbi Rodriguez - I didn't have to pay for this; it came with the commission I got from Robbi and he did a sketch on the inside cover; it is a heist story but that's about all I know at this point - more

Pinnochio, Vampire Slayer by Van Jensen and Dusty Higgins - I didn't plan to buy this; I was curious and got sucked in by Jensen's sales pitch to me, especially the fact that it is based on the original book and not the Disney movie; both creators signed the cover for me although I wasn't careful enough handling it immediately after they did so and both signatures got smeared a little bit - more
