I also had a cartoon for C2E2 in the magazine Time Out Chicago:

and I did a ton of Mini-paintings for $5 that flew at the con!

A huge thanks to Gail for the shout out on Twitter and to my friends at Geektress for their support. It was nice seeing Kevin again and fellow Sketch Knight Tom Stillwell was kicking ass at C2E2 as well.

It was a great con, Lots of fun!

Congratulations, Brian, and thanks again for the paintings and the comics.

That is an excellent dead Robin, BTW.

Thank you both for the support! I'm glad you both liked the mini paintings, next time I'll have a Cyclops for you. :)

Congratulations! It's always great to carry home money in your pockets rather than boxes of unsold books!

Thanks very much. My friend Chris Burnham gives me really honest critiques when I ask him for advice. I've even redrawn entire pages based on his advice.

It's making me a better artist.
