Hola!
Well, after a trip that I’m calling a ‘comedy of errors and fail’ (including a 26-hour layover in Denver b/c of snow the first day of the trip), I lived through the harrowing ordeal of my visit to the midwest for Planet comicon and family visits, and have returned to the sanity of the Pacific Northwest. I apologize for the absence of the sketch blogs recently. ECCC and trip planning took up all of my time before I left. But I’m back.
So, not much to say about Planet Comicon. The fans were great and I got to meet and hang out with some cool local people. Also, Clayton Crain‘s table was next to ours. He was super cool, and he bought a hat from Ashlie (we couldn’t get a pic of him wearing it, tho… LOL). I don’t know if it’ll go on our list of ‘must-do shows’ tho. Oh well.
So, the sketch! Well, today’s sketch is something that has been playing around in my brain for the past year or so and I sketched up this morning on my bus ride to work:
SPIDER-KID! Everyone remembers as a kid tying towels and pillowcases around your neck and jumping off couches and boxes pretending to be superman. Well, this is kinda my version of that memory. I’ve always been a Spidey fan. I used to throw yarn around pretending it was webbing, too. It was awesome. I may do some more ‘kid super heroes’ in the future. Who would you like to see as a kid? Who did YOU dress up as when you were young?
In unrelated news, I was interviewed (along with good friends Daniel and Rebecca) by the fine folks at the Seattle Geekly podcast at Emerald City. You should go check that out, for sure. I’ll be putting that in the press page for future reference, as well.
