World Horrorcon 2012 is now over, and I am sad. I had an awesome time. Sure my voice is broken, my head is pounding, and I feel like a truck ran over and then had it’s way with me, but I wish it had never ended.
I got to meet so many cool people. You would not believe the amount of aspiring writers who came to this convention. My wife is now obligated to write reviews of several writer’s novels for the site or those same writers have sworn a blood oath to track us both down and bath in our steamy blood… or they might just be upset… one of those two options.
Regardless we’ll be having some book reviews on the site soon as I’m not sure which option they’ll choose. That makes me afraid.
My prize that I’m taking away from Horrorcon is this awesome sketch and autograph done for me by Mike Mignola, the creator of Hellboy. He sat across the hall from my wife and I and I got to listen to a tonne of amazing stories about behind the scenes stuff in Hollywood and Comics. Mike Mignola was really cool, I was almost too intimidated to come up to him and ask him for an autograph, but I’m glad I did.
I even managed not to embarrass myself or say anything dramatically weird or insane for our entire conversation. That’s a new personal best for me.
This Hellboy sketch and autograph by Mike Mignola is going in a frame and going in my office for sure. Officially one of my most prized possessions.
I met him at Comic Con, he was really nice.
Mignola is one of my favorites illustrators. Very cool you got to meet him and get a signed sketch.
The whole con was a great time. This sketch though really is my prize possession though. I love it.
First off love your bunny sketch. Next you should draw a zombie cat… I’m trying to think of ways of bringing my cat back… I’m thinking construct kitty. Im not a huge fan of having my face ripped off if we try to bury him at the pet cemetery. Poor old thing just died this morning
Aaaaww I’m sorry about your cat. That sucks.
Do take a lesson from Pet Cemetery though, don’t try to bring them back. It NEVER ends well.
I dont know if I take the frankenwiene route it might work.
But only if you get Tim Burton’s help.
Somewhere in the world it is midnight. Somewhere in the world when it is midnight, there is a graveyard. And in that graveyard the dead come forth. For it is the Zombie Jamborie.
Will you be there for the Zombie Jamborie?
I will certainly try.
carter dont take this the wrong way but when I first looked at the scetch all I saw was you doing the fan girl squeel … when I read it was hellboy I looked back and laughed
I won’t lie, I may have done that, when Mike Mignola wasn’t looking. In fact I’m doing it now. Squeeeeeeeee!
