I am amazed and humbled at the generosity of complete strangers and the continued generosity of Stan to make little requests like this possible for those of us that can't make a con on the coasts.
Also a big thank you to the Dojo for giving us all a forum to have opportunities like this to get more and more out of this wonderful world of Usagi!!!
Here's hoping for a Con appearance somewhere in the middle states within 6 hours of home so I can finally meet Stan and repay the favor to somebody else.
Thank you again...
My pleasure Trevis!
I'll be getting in touch with everyone that is expecting something very soon.
I'm sure you'll get the chance to attend a con one day & meet Stan!
Steve Hubbell wrote:Hey Mike, Thanks again for all your help.
I also just wanted to add a quick note to complement you on the great sketches Stan did for you. They look awesome!
I Love them both, and if for any reason what-so-ever you decide you no longer want them,
I call first dibs!!! :D
Hey Steve, you're welcome!
LOL, I keep your 'offer' in mind, but I don't think I'll ever part with the sketches. If anything, I'll put you in my will! :wink:

Here's an photo of the dojo at WonderCon (Mike, sorry we couldn't get you in it. But you did get that awesome sketch of UsagiStan)

Mark, Maka, Robert, Sharon, Stan, Anthony and Todd.

Here's Groo vs. Usagi by Sergio (WonderCon 2011) and Stan (WonderCon 2012)

BTW, Stan's work for the color sketchbook looks amazing! Something to look forward too. Stan also mentioned that the 47 Ronin comic is official. For now it's 5 issues and he is already started on the first issue. I don't know who the writer is.

Peace, maka

Ah, what a motley looking bunch! :wink:
Sorry I couldn't stay for the group photo, but duty called & I had to head home early.

Awesome Groo vs Usagi sketch! Two of my favorites - together! :D

Oh yeah, the watercolor sketchbook..... wasn't that cool! I really enjoyed looking through the book, and I'm looking forward to seeing something materialize from it. Watercolors work well with Usagi!

A big THANK YOU publicly on the Dojo Forum to Maichan for taking the time to help a fellow Dojo member out. I received everything today!!!
I would also like to thank Stan for making this possible and allowing Maichan to pick up these items for me. I immediately showed everything off to the family and My kids simply loved the cover to the Katsucon program! To the Best fans out there and the greatest man in comics!!!
Thanks again to Maichan and Stan!!!

Ah, missed out on the Dojo photo op. Well, I did mention earlier that my attention would be split between the Rabbit and the Mouse. ;)

It was great seeing Stan again, and talking with him for a short time between sketches.

Still no true confirmation as to where Wondercon will be next year, but hope to meet up Sensei again sometime in the near future.
