This past weekend I attended
Megacon in Florida along with NEVERMINDS artist, Jamie Fay! We love this
convention and look forward to it each year. This year in particular, we REALLY
wanted to visit Florida because the winter in NYC has been extreme! I don’t
think I’ve ever seen a winter with so much snow since I moved to NYC over 20
years ago! It’s been crazy. So, getting to relax in the sun and warmth was
amazing! Megacon was in a different hall this year and the layout was also slightly
different. I was told different reasons why this was, but it was obvious to me
there were a lot more people at the convention this year. So, maybe that had
something to do with it too? Whatever the reasons, it was an exciting show!
Friday, the first day was a little slow for me, but Jamie had his commission
list filled within the first hour. He was banging out some amazing sketches the
entire weekend and had to turn people away due to so many requests. On Saturday
and Sunday, I was slammed busy and sold out of all Sentinels and Neverminds
books that we had brought. Bugged wasn’t as big a seller, but it’s a different
type of story and can be a bit much for some people because it falls under a
more mature theme. But my prints were selling incredibly well and I was very happy
that people enjoyed them too! I want to thank all the old and new friends we
have made at Megacon. We really love interacting with fans and talking comics with
everyone. I especially want to thank Andrew, Kam, Korey and Stacey for stopping
by and always being such big supporters of Drumfish and special thanks to David
and Todd for helping with the heavy boxes of books I sent to them before the
show!
Here's a cute picture of a girl cosplaying as Death (from DC Comic's Sandman series) holding my Death print that she bought from me.
Our next show is Awesome Con in Washington D.C.! We hope to see you there.
