Lea @ CCI

roaring dragon, spore, monster friday
Yannow, I dunno why it's called "Comic Con International", 'cause it's really "entertainment international but with comics."
But what do I know, I only make comics.

Here's a couple of pics of me by my former Hardy Boys ed Jim Salicrup, who took LOTS of pics and then wrote funny captions for them. Doesn't he have graphic novels to edit?


Me and Sergio Aragones.


Me, putting on my best sweet face.

Me? I slept from 4:30-ish yesterday until 6:30 AM this morning. I just had to shut down the system for a cold boot. I feel muuuuuch better. Near-Life will update tonight.
I only made less than half my usual take at CCI this year, so I got to face a "how the fuck do I pay this?" electric bill upon returning home. Here's hoping some of the business contacts I made at CCI pan out, and I can get back to sending other people money, rather than saying:
HURT COMICS with a fine, locally-made "I'm hurting comics" t-shirt. Others hurting comics include Scott McCloud, T. Campbell, editor of GraphicSmash.com, Lisa Jonte, Spike, Dirk Tiede, Karen K., and many others.
Scroll down for the pretty PayPal button for the usual donations.

As soon as I pay my electric bill, you've got a deal.

The concensus seemed to be that less people showed up for the convention floor and more people showed up for the movie panels. I'm curious what their attendance was?

Yay, bangs!

Had a friend put in my shirt order for me in exchange for sending her something British while I was across. Looking forward to joining the hater horde!

totally hijacking the comments!
I sent the Paypal in, but I ended up doing it manually instead of through the order form in order to add the extra postage. Did you happen to get it, Ms. [info]divalea? :D



p.s. The bangs look super-adorable, and so do the pics! XD

Did you get to read the Comics Journal shoujo manga issue? There's a pretty good rant in the beginning about why your local comic book store sucks. Nothing really we haven't all said but it was entertaining to see it there. I haven't finished the issue yet.

I'm in that issue!
I love Dirk's essay. I feel apologizes a bot too much, maybe, but the bulk of it, especially the beginning and conclusion, had me a-grinnin'.
