2006 FallCon

Well that went pretty well. I got to do several sketches for con volunteers (free), more to pay for the trip, and a few in exchange for my dares.

This girl got the first one. Last year at the Fall Con she performed the origin of Mary Marvel as live theater. When she flew I carried her around the convention hall. But this year she was first in line so I didn't torture her too much...

But the big dare was painting a fan up in Elektra's costume. Originally, the fan wanted to pay for the sketch. But he came back later with a friend willing to get hair spray painted to save his buddy $125. Here's what Elektra is supposed to look like:

I was going from memory, so here's how he ended up.

I think someone owes his buddy a few rounds of drinks this year. Mr Elektra went around shirtless for the rest of the FallCon.

I also traded Ryan Kelly for a page of comic artwork. But I did it on the condition that he let me pick a page five years from now, after he's bloomed into a pop culture phenomenon. Like Paul Pope and James Kochalka rolled into one! So join me on his coattails and check out his latest book Local with writer Brian Wood. You can see some of Ryan's painted work here.
