free sketches

Another Fan Expo has come and gone, marking the third complete year that Mike and myself have been attending conventions with our comics (our 4th Fan Expo).  Our table is looking a lot fuller, than 2006, when we had 3 issues printed between the two of us, and we are starting to see some momentum building over the last 3 years.  Here’s a few photos of us hard at work.

And now some of the sketches:

What happens in the first minute, when The Possum fills in for a vacationing Spider-man?

And now an endorsement from the Joker and Scarecrow:

See you at Word on the Street!

Once again, Possum Press and Ultraist Studios spent Sunday, September 28th, at the Word on the Street Festival, in Toronto. This is an annual event, and our second time attending. We were blessed with two consecutive years of nice sunny weather, and lots of people visiting our table. I always love this event, because it brings out a lot of young kids, which is always fun.

This is the first show that we brought out our life size cardboard cutouts of Spy Guy and The Possum, which were used for the “Superhero Movie”, which came out last spring I believe. (I’ll have to do another post about that soon, as the stand-ups and my ugly mug made it into the movie)…….

A big thanks to everyone who came out, and spent a little bit of their hard earned money supporting our comics! (or their parent’s hard earned money). Maybe we can do it again next year!

Here’s some more free sketches done at the Fan Expo. 

This just seemed like the natural thing that Jughead and The Possum would be doing if they ever hung out.

Mike may have been AWOL this convention, but at least Spy Guy showed up!

We’ve done a few Secret Invasion covers now.  It’s always a pleasure defacing Marvel merchandise.

Batman is always fun to draw, and since Dark Knight came out this year, I got to draw him quite a bit.

Well, another Fan Expo has come and gone.  This show is usually one of the better shows for sales, and that means that I’m kept busy doing lots of free sketches for all of those wonderful Possum readers!  Here’s a few of the ones that I did on Friday and Saturday.  Unfortunately, my camera’s batteries died on me (I think I left it on overnight), so I couldn’t take pictures of any of the sketches I did in the morning and early afternoon on Saturday, until a trusty fan was able to pick me up some batteries while he went out to lunch! 

I did this She-Hulk sketch for someone, and he never came back to pick it up.  If this is yours, give me an email, and we can work something out to get it to you:)

Next up: Sunday’s sketches; coming soon to a blog post near you!
