Okay so I was back from this years Bristol Comic Expo. The 1st show I ever went to as a fan and eventually as an industry insider.
So what do I think? I thought it was great. It was definatley busier than last time, and although I did not hang around for the Sunday last year. This year there were decent numbers on this day, which is a one of the difficult things for any 2 day show.
The Saturday started with being asked to draw a Slag. A Dinobot Slag that is, after all this was a comiccon! From there the requests came thick and fast & a nice mix they were too. Optimus Prime, Game of Thrones, Loki, Hellcat, Wolverine, Deadpool, Quentin Quire, a nice mix indeed.
There of course was a tricky one, there always is. Iron Man, Full Colour, but within his latest movie garb. Now Iron Man's not a problem but have you seen the level of tech on his new armour?
Yep Tricky.
It worked out just fine though.
Normally at a show I would be locked behind the table for the full weekend. This time however I was asked to join a panel on Nostalgia in Comics and quite interesting it was too. I was joined with my good pal's John-Paul Bove & Liam Shalloo for the talk. We had a few laughs and all found it far deeper than we expected. The last contributer made the greatest observation. Wether Nostalgia will actually disapear. As with this internet age, nothing truley disapears and everything is accessable. So we never really have time to miss or remaniss about anything anymore. As it is always there, readily available.
Overall this was a good show. Not as busy or as intense as the larger shows. But it did have a nice feel to it. People had time to chat, get sketches, and have a browse around, without being overwhelmed. I like the direction it is heading and personally think they did a great job.
Long live Bristol Expo!
Dave asked for a Slag, he look's happy enough.

Another Weekend, another show though this time it was local. The Memorabilia show was the 1st venue I ever sketched in Public. Though this was way back when The 'Draw The World Together' Charity was there sponsored by NCSOFT. Back then I was drawing under the charities banner with requests from City of Heroes.

Fast Forward the last few years and the Memorabilia has now become the MCM Birmingham Comic Con. Although the name Memorabilia and branding is still there, how long will it last?
All I know is the Show didn't just seem busier, it was busier. More people were in attendance at the show than I have seen in many years. With long cues to get into the venue and an interesting crowd of new younger people added in to the mix. Many of the people I had spoke to had never been to the show before, this was there 1st time at the MCM show and the 1st time they had attended a Comic Con. It was great to see so many were in awe of the event.
I was kindly asked to draw a nice mix of sketches, a few of which are posted on here. Some I forgot to photograph, such as a Tubby Dr Octopus wearing a Superior Spider-Man suit that didn't quite fit. I enjoyed Drawing Howard the Duck's alter egos, plus others such as Zombie Prime & Supergirl.
A good show and I met some great people in the process. All in all a very successful weekend!

The Second ever London Super Comic Con began early for me. Not just with an exhaustive Pre-Sketch list, but heading down to London for an early set up & boy am I glad I did. Friday Afternoon Set-Up is always preferable to a Manic Saturday Morning Rush & this time was no exception.
I was there nice and early to see the crowds literally run into the hallways just so they could cue in front of their favorite Artists. My gosh was I busy. Although I was well prepared with all my nesissary items of nutrion in place, I never quite found the time to enjoy them. Batman, Spiderman, Hulk, Starscream x4, Maverick etc.. & the list went on...
The usual aftershow drinks are fun, however I was not there. I was working in The Shalloo's studio until 2.30 in the morning in an attempt to play catch up. Though the take away and good company kept me going into the small hours.
The Sunday allthough quiter than the Saturday before it, was good too. Though it did luckily privide me with the opportunity to make headway into my sketch list. This was the biggest Comics based show I have been too. Though was missing last years Stan Lee affect. It will be interesting where it goes from here.....
