Post MoCCA Post and more

So MoCCA was good,
others have blogged about it, so I won't really, I just had a good time. I also didn't take any pictures, but
Colleen Frakes and Penina Gal did!
Thanks to Penina and her parents for providing us a space to crash. Despite the heat and everything this was still one of the easiest times I've had a a convention.
Also, Amelia Part 2 is now available for purchase online at I Know Joe Kimpel

AND...
here's a free preview of the first 8 pages!

I'm heading down to New York tomorrow morning for MoCCA.

Bryan Stone did a real nice drawing for me that's the interior back cover of my comic, he's got it up on his blog with a couple other nice drawings,
check it out

I'll see you in New York!

I also watched two movie marathons in two days. A Star Trek-athon on Monday and a samurai fest yesterday. I'm actually a little movie exhausted, a little.
I'm super excited to see Drag Me to Hell this weekend though!

Also, check out this particularly disturbing panel from Chapter 7 of Amelia,

SOLD OUT

Amelia cover
Monsters & Girls is sold out!
I just received word that Monsters & Girls: Amelia is sold out at I Know Joe Kimpel and there is a back log of orders!
Not to worry though, I'll be making a new run of M&G shortly, and for anyone who has to wait for an order because of me I'll throw in a secret gift!

In other news, I'm getting ready for MoCCA, I have a place to stay and a table to put my stuff on! I'll be at the I Know Joe Kimpel table again this year. So I'll see you there, June 6th and 7th!

I'm working on coloring the back cover for the new issue. I want to emphasize that this is still a work in progress.

Amelia sketchbook drawing

ameliapinup1
Yet another Amelia pin-up!

This one I did in my sketchbook before starting Chapter 7, both as to practice using a brush and as a test for the bra I'd be drawing a lot in the upcoming chapter (also just for fun).

As for the graduation pictures, I took them, and I'll update you soon on them.

Also, I saw Forbidden Zone again last night. I love that movie. Why can't more movies be influenced by Fleisher cartoons?
