Day 4 of #ic3tober: Sin City
Taking a break from markers to focus on ink. Already looking forward to tomorrow’s.

Day 3 of #ic3tober: BONE
A really fun character to draw. Decided to commit to doing a full sky in the background. Felt too empty without it.

Day 2 of #ic3tober: Savage Dragon
I don’t know why this pose came to mind when I thought of this character. Had to get some reference for those muscles. Good thing I had a mirror handy 😉

First day of #ic3tober!
Had a lot of fun draw CEREBUS. Thought I’d try out the greytone markers on this, with just a pop of color.

Day 2 of opening the store with an upside down “We’re open” sign 🪧
I am going to return it and get a new one, but it seemed appropriate for the first week 😏
August 28, 2025 at 2:13 PM
Trying to open the store, but not sure how this is supposed to work. Am I missing something here or did I just get sent a defective sign?

Swung by Postmark Books to see @yourfriendjesse.bsky.social and the new store space (they moved down the street).
Good to see so many AWBW books on display including both Young Men in Love ❤️anthologies with The Color of Always 🌈, as well as the Broken Frontier anthology face out on a shelf.

Spent some time today putting together a new toy for the shop: an industrial cart w/ mail bins (blue of course) to hold lots of packages 📦 ready to be mailed off!

Can fit up to 10 markers in each slot.
August 7, 2025 at 8:18 PM
And room at the bottom for sets!
August 7, 2025 at 8:16 PM
With spin action!

Rescued this old marker display rack. Spent a few hours cleaning off the dust, but now it’s looking pretty good! Don’t know if I’ve got enough markers to fill it all, but I can get a good variety in there & room for box sets at the bottom.
What are the best sketch & acrylic markers you’ve used?
August 7, 2025 at 8:15 PM
The countdown has begun. Can I get the space ready in time? Stay tuned!

Went to get an ice coffee this morning and the lady who took my order didn’t even ask for my name. She just put down “Wolverine.”
It did not disappoint. When they called it out, I thought I was in X-Men United hearing Brian Cox’s Stryker.

A #signedcomicsaturday blast from the past w/ the 3 issue series Memetic + variant for #1) signed by writer James Tynion IV & artist @erykdonovan.bsky.social This was my first time reading either of their work (I was tabling next to Eryk at Heroes Con ‘15)
Been a huge fan of both of them ever since!

A big highlight from #heroescon was seeing @thewolfmaria again, who is an extraordinary talent and positive force in the comics industry.
Maria shared her recent journey to improve her health which includes power lifting 🏋🏽‍♀️
Consider me inspired and I look forward to seeing more gains 💪 at NYCC!

Fresh signatures on a couple of #firstappearance issues here at #heroescon
They were both already signed by the writers with Roger Stern signing the first Captain Marvel/Photon and Ann Nocenti signing the first Typhoid Mary. Now the both have artist John Romita JR’s signature too!

Did these 3 for the Drink and Draw event at Heroes Con to benefit Parkinson’s research on behalf of Team Cul de Sac.
Storm is probably my favorite, followed by Nightcrawler. Madman was worth giving a shot.

Look who made it to Charlotte!
Doesn’t the Westin know we require a better view of the convention sign than this.

Mail delivery! Got my rewards from the @invadercomics.bsky.social Double Feature campaign with these great VHS-style covers of “Kodoja” and “Three Protectors”.
Even came with a Blockbuster Video homage metal bookmark!

Ridiculously huge #ncbd pickup
Good to see 🌟 indie comics alive and well!
Too many to list but titles & creators are on the covers.
Might do some focused videos to recommend these amazing series properly.
Until then, time to get reading 📖 You should go pick up some of these for yourself!

📫Latest mail delivery from @lianakangas.com with a cool Queen of the Damned stamp on the envelope! Inside there’s some shiny DC Ladies sports stickers, I don’t know who’s on the miniprint, and a small piece from White Lotus!
