If This Town Is Just an Apple

...then let me take a bite! That was MJ back in the day before his...umm...troubles.

The New York Comic Con was a sold out success (yeah, that's right, SOLD OUT) and Dwight and I, as your two resident art nerds, are happy to have been a part of it. We owe all of our participation to our friend, artist Paolo Rivera, and also to Peter Tatara and Kim Mueller of the NYCC staff. Everyone working for the show was awesome, gracious and helpful as all get out.

We moderated a panel called The Do's and Dont's of Being a Comics Professional which, by the way, turned out beautifully. Very well attended, lots of good information imparted and we didn't come off like complete idiots (notice I said complete).

Our panelists were, of course, Paolo and also another friend, Eric Canete, who from now on shall be referred to as "Our Hero". Our Hero stepped in at the last minute, joined Paolo as a speaker, and they both rocked the house with their insight and honesty. The crowd asked a ton of questions and those two guys did their thing. We thank them much...
