That doesn't surprise me. Coolest UY cover OF ALL TIME, baby. Perhaps this could give Mr. Sakai a little hint to the future potential of Jeisagi.

Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.

Thank you , Steve, for helping me by posting my pics for me!!!!
I appreciate it.
So, yeah, the drawings I did for Stan and Sergio and they seemed to like them. I also did a block print (carved out of wood) for both of them. It was such a treat to meet these fine young gentlemen!! I appreciate their patience with me, a mere lifelong FANBOY!

Layne Toth writes a nice review of the Motor City Comic Con, illustrated with quite a few photos, including the one below

Image
Ten year old Layne Toth is the hardest working kid in comics! She's worked on several comic books including her Faith Warrior Princess and Meow-Wow, appeared in a few television spots, was featured in newspapers and magazines. Now she's working on taking over the world. She's got moxy and gumption - and we like that here at PULSE! You can learn all about her and see some cool pictures at her website http://www.sisterscomics.com/

Concerning Gary and Morna-San's newly aquired obsession with Usagi Yojimbo and all their loot from the Motor City Con, the following comment sums it up perfectly...

Thomas sent me a PM just a bit ago saying that he finally received the package containing them yesterday. He should be mailing out your Sketchbook #4 sometime in the next few days, I would guess.

Dear Readers,

"You guys are going to have to call your house the Stan Sakai Art Museum from now on."

Is shrine a better word?

Best wishes to all!

hi all! We're still travelling, going to the wedding today and might try to get to the Toronto comic con to see Petersen again - just for the fun of it.

We just can't wait to get home to start intergrating all the new art into our poor overcrowded home. I will get the uy 101 cover framed as soon as i possibly can. just a few more days

I love him when he's pissed off
