Free comics you say?

Went down to the comic book store to take advantage of Free Comicbooks Day. (Devon, I picked up some for you :) ) At Comic Kazi (because I convieniently decided to stop there on the way home), they had 5 comic artists and a writer. Two from Udon Comics ---Street Fighter--- Art Thibert from DC and one fellow who's names starts with an H from Marvel. The writer was Rich Birdsall who works with Art Thibert on Chrono Mechanics (which, by the way, is a series you should all look in to because it's funny!) I talked with --Rich Birdsall---and as I read Chrono Mechanics, I couldn't help but laugh. The first page, you're greeted by Geraldo in the middle of a newscast and I was like "Teehee!". He basically gave me a rundown of the story and mentioned that Warner Bros. had approached them saying they might do a cartoon which would be really neat. He was pretty enthuastic about the series and was really friendly! He says he loves Canada, btw. (and wishes to live here. lol)

So I can officially say, I've talked to a comicbook writer and watched Art Thibert at work on a pic of Superman. *nods* Actually, two comic writers. The second works with a fellow at Another Dimension whose art is on display right now at House Coffee(?) on Kensington and he talked with me about the comic industry and becoming a comic artist and such (it was purely random, mind, I was reading Superman/Batman so...). I did know who he was as he seems to be one of the regulars at House. It was pretty interesting.

Hm.

I think that was perhaps the brief moment of art-geekery in my life I must say.

Report card remains hidden. Off to read Gatsby aka catch up in English.
