Stan has agreed to do 2 sketches for board members at MegaCon.

I'll mail the sketch to each fan for free.

Last time, I did it for the international fans. So this time it's for the

U.S. fans.

Here's the rules:

1. U.S. fan

2. Doesn't already have a sketch from Stan.

3. Won't see Stan in the near future at a con or appearance (6 months).

4. First 2 people to reply to this thread that meet the 1st 3 rules.

5. Sketch MUST be personalized.


Good luck,

Well, that puts me out of the loop...

Although I don't qualify, I want to say this is really awesome of you.

Ditto

I meet the first three rules. I wouldn't mind having a sketch.

I meet the rules, however, there is no way I can make it to MegaCon.

Does that still count?

Tinlantern,

Yes, it counts. This is meant for those NOT able to see Stan.

So the 2 are picked.

ahhhh... man! just missed my one chance to get my first sketch. sigh... congrats to you guys though!

It's already been said, but here it is again:

This is really generous and caring of both of you; thank you very much for your trouble and concern, John H. and Stan Sakai!

And congratulations to the winners! I hope you'll grant us the privilege to see some scans/photos of these sketches, right?!

Yeah, I'll scan mine and post it when I get it. I'll get a nice frame for it too.

Thanks, you've made my day! I live somewhere that has very few comic book conventions, let alone any that Stan goes to, and I don't travel very much, so I don't have many opportunities to get sketches.

This just goes to show that you meet some pretty cool and generous people on the Internet sometimes! I actually once got a lobby card signed by Italian horror legend Dario Argento like this once!

I just want to thank the both of you (Mr. Sakai and John) for their generosity. I have been reading Usagi since I was a kid (now I'm an "adult").

Every Friday my mom, sister, and I had family dinner out somewhere in downtown Bloomington, IN. I would always walk down the street to Vintage Phoenix (our comic shop) and pick up Usagi from my box. I couldn't believe they let a 10 year old have a reserve box!! Then I would read Usagi at the table (secretly).

Sorry for the personal stories, but I really respect an artist's dedication to his/her fans.

Simply, thank you.

Good on you, John. And Stan, of course, as well.

John did this for me a few years back I cant tell you how happy and thankful I am to him everytime I look at it and show it off and tell the story of how cool he was to get me mine and of course Stan also

John, not sure why you wrote this a second time, but just in case.
I meet the requirements and would love a sketch.
