Baltimore Comic Con -- August 28 - 29, 2010

i think you should have this year.

Short on cash my friend.

Why don't you just get Andy to pick you up on his way down from Boston.

cause andy is going down the whole week pior to the con to vist dc with his girlfriend a couple of buddies and his mother. otherwise he would be all about it.

So can someone let me cut in line on Saturday? I've got about a 4-5 hour drive in order to get there and I REALLY want to get a Ryan Ottley sketch. His list fills up ridiculously quick and Saturday is my only shot. I missed out last year. I'm going to try to leave as early as possible, but by the time I get there the line will be impossibly long.

So you didn't get the okay to stay the night I take it. Remember you can crash with us if you want to.

I will be going to Ottley as soon as I am allowed it which is usually a lot sooner than you guys. I will try to add your name when I do. He is only charging $40 for a penciled sketch so I can understand how he fills up quickly.

Not sure how far up in the line my boys will be but I am sure they will let you jump in with them. Remember Damon? He will be there so just look for him and last year Andy's gang and Adam were pretty close to the front as well. So you should be good.

Cool thanks man. Where'd you get the $40 figure? Last I read on his website he was charging $100 and only doing like 5 a day.

I got the $40 from Ottley himself.

So what are you guys planing for Baltimore? Hitting up any people in particular for sketches or signings?

I have some art already ordered. I plan on hitting up Ottley for sure for $40... it will be one of his very few Punisher sketches.

Interested in Hamner, Luna Brothers, Phil Noto, Sean Murphy, Klaus Janson, and many more... but my eyes and wants are way bigger than my pockets. So more than likely it will be me getting the piece from Ottley and then paying for a bunch of smaller guys to do sketches and pounding out all the free ones.

Josh, Erik Larsen does free head sketches.

For myself, it is all about the autographs and finally meeting Todd McFarlane. The last orginal Image founder to meet. My friend and I are going down like 6am to get in line. I know at San Diego he had a limit of one but I hope I can get 2 because I have 6 things but 3 friends that are going to help

Tito, there is two weeks before I leave, is there anybody for your book that you want? I will stay away from Trimpe so there should be no coffee spills this year

There is a UFC fight on Saturday Night. My buddy and I will be going out to the club, any and all are invited to join us.

Gabriel Hardman posted this earlier, looks like he is doing pre orders for the show:

The bad news is I saw him tweet that he would only be doing Frankencastle sketches at the Con.

lol....

sadly he didn't have anything to do with that crappy shit.

OK it's official, I just booked the room I'm at the Sheraton on Saturday night.

So what's the game plan? I'm totally down for going to UFC on Sat. night.

why didn't you just stay with me?

Because I have my friend Pat with me as well.

So what's up with Sat. night? What's the plan?

We are good to do whatever man!!!

Glad there is someone that we will be able to hang out with.

We were figuring we can go get something to eat and some cheap beer and then maybe hit up the Hustler club since they will have the fight. My cell is 443 206 4363 for anyone that may want to get a hold of me this weekend... Doug give me a call I will have the phone on me all weekend long.

Looks like I am all set. Barring any last minute additions or cancellations, I am bringing 142 books to get signed. If I get them all signed that will leave me 18 short of 1000 autographed books and that is a very doable number to get in one day at New York

See you guys there

Josh,

Look for me. I'll have that Chuck Dixon Punisher sketch for you.

Jeff

Geoff Johns backed out. He was a big chunk of what I was bringing now I have to scramble to replace those books

Thanks Jeff... I kept meaning to come on here and post something for you.
