I'm outta here, and on my way to Kansas City. If you asked me to bring anything, ask for it at the con.

Probably to late to ask, but could someone grab me any Usagi or Groo promo material and / or program book? I would really appreciate it.

That show was a total blast! It seemed like a perfect fit to be doing a signing in the same room as The Groo Crew! But the locals were there too like Kerry Callen and many others....

I wrote a good blog about this show in my Myspace blogs....it is rather detailed about my views of the show....

Oh yeah, and I found this video of Stan Sakai doing a Usagi drawing at the con....

He draws faster then me! LOL! And speaking me at Mo-Kan pushing fuzzies to the unsuspecting Furrlough victims....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOMPrqoFrJg

And one of Groo-like Sergio....

And the last one of Tom Luth....

Gosh, I wish that show was an all week thing! Hah!

:lol:

I finally have time to visit the forum again! Yay! :D

The con was great! Meeting, chatting with, and listening to Stan, Sergio, Tom, and Mike was fun and insightful. Thank you Stan for your many autographs. All my friends are in awe of the sketch you did in my artbook. Monkey, I'm sorry we never got to meet up. :cry: Maybe next time, huh?
