I have done commissions on blank trading cards, but I was referring to any of a number of Usagi trading cards--in the TMNT set, the Comic Images set of 9, the DH promotional sets, or even my own card from the Famous Cartoonists or Groo sets.

I can't wait to see you again, Stan. I will be picking up a Sketchbook for sure, and hopefully one of your con drawings you have available.

As far as those 25th anniversary posters go, is there enough that people don;t have to worry about getting one, or do people need to ask to have one held for them?

If anyone needs a sketchbook and hasn't found a "buyer" for them yet, let me know.

Here is some last minute San Diego Con stuff--

Roel said he will bring the new figures to display at my booth. I have seen photos of the display, and they are beautiful! Unfortunately, I probably will not be able to put them on my tables, as they are already cluttered, but will be in the booth in full view.

Even if you ordered things from me, you are not obligated to buy them if it you decide against it after seeing it--even that copy of Albedo #2 that was requested. Most items will be put aside, but not those that have no danger of running out such as the new Sketchbook 6.

If you want one of those signature plates for UY 23, please ask for it. They will not be given away automatically, even with the hard cover editions. These are free, but I only have a very few.

Speaking of free, don't forget to pick up one of those 25th anniversary posters or a CBLDF signature card.

I did not have the time to complete the commissioned art that Dojo members asked for. My deadline for UY 123 is a week after Comic-con, and I have not yet started lettering.

Remember--we can always use $1 and $5 bills, especially towards the end of the con. So if you can pay with smaller denominations, please do so.

I did not have time to order silver cloisonne pins for this year's 25th anniversary. In fact, I'm about out of the classic red ones. I will just have the limited edition blue ones this year. I'll get more red ones, along with either yellow or green in time for next Comic-con.

I will be at Booth 4906, as usual. No karaoke next to me this year!

Will these still be available to people who aren't attending the con?

Yes. I am leaving a few at home, and will offer them to members who were not able to go to Comic-con. It will probably be a week or so after the con, once I start to get caught up with my regular work.

The same applies to Sketchbook 6. I will offer it for mail order after the con. It will be $10 plus postage, so please do not buy them on eBay at highly inflated prices.
