Exhausted, excited, overwhelmed. Our first convention since launching Our Last Gasp was phenomenal! Heroes Convention in Charlotte was an incredible chance to share the new book and prints with so many comic lovers. We made a bunch of new friends like Sue S., Little John, Kate, Chris and others. We met an accountant, a doctor, and a design student, some young fans, and others still young where it counts. To everyone that came by the booth and chatted with us, got the book, or one of the prints, thanks for making our first convention amazing. We only got a couple of pictures unfortunately, but you can find them after the jump.

We’re bouncing off the walls around the office because the first-ever collection of Our Last Gasp just rolled through the door today! It looks awesome and we can’t wait to get these into your hands! “Eye Candy for Eggheads” collects the first 160 strips and is filled with extras like concept sketches, fun facts about the series, and even the first three strips as originally drawn by Stephen before David joined the team. Limited quantity will go on sale at the Heroes Convention in Charlotte June 19-21, so stop by and get a signed copy while we have them.

If you’re going to be in the Charlotte area on the weekend of June 19th, make sure you stop by and see us at HeroesCon. David and I confirmed this week that we will both be there to meet the fans of Our Last Gasp. David will be doing sketches and taking commissions and we’ll be bringing several cool new OLG things with us too.

Coding the new Our Last Gasp website is moving along… slowly. You’ll see it soon though, thanks for the patience.
Anybody out there headed to HeroesCon in Charlotte at the end of June? The Iconograph gang went last year and had a great time. Definitely a great convention for comic book lovers.
Speaking of comics, he wasn’t loved by everyone, but you gotta admit Rich Johnston was always fun to read. I’ll miss his Lying in the Gutters column.
I’m really crazy about some of the posters over at OMG Posters! Reminds me that using posters has truly become a lost part of advertising outside of movies.

This weekend I finally had a chance to watch the 1995 mockumentary Forgotten Silver by Peter Jackson and Costa Botes and found it quite fun. I had some trepidation about this because I wasn’t sure how this joke would play out for a full 60 minutes. It only took a few minutes before the story of New Zealand’s greatest filmmaker captured my attention.
