First off, I wanted to say that I probably won't be posting new blogs for the next couple of weeks because I'll be on vacation in the U.K. Woo Hoo! I leave tonight. I'm a long time anglophile and this will be my first trip to England, so I'm super excited!
As for how Comic Con went, wow. Lots of craziness! I showed my comic sample around, but I don't think that anything really solid came out of it. I think that the San Diego Comic Con has just gotten too big for a little person trying to break in at that event in particular. I did have a lot of fun though.
The highlight was probably getting to talk to Peter S. Beagle, author of The Last Unicorn, at his table in the Artist's Alley section of the con. People who have followed my blog for a while know my love for The Last Unicorn movie. So cool to meet the author of the original book! He was super friendly, and signed a copy of the new graphic novel of the book that came out in 2010. I was kinda star-struck.
My next goal for my Snow comic is to show it around at the Long Beach Comic Con that happens around Halloween. I just got notified this morning that I was approved for professional free passes, so I'll definitely be headed there! It's a much smaller event, so I'm hopeful that I can have some quality networking opportunities for my work there.
After that, there is another event called the CTN Animation Expo in Burbank that I'll be headed to with my stuff. That one starts November 18, which just so happens to be my birthday. Perhaps that'll make me extra lucky there!
Alright, gotta get going to catch my flight. I'll bring back pictures :)
