New York Comicon #NYCC 2013

I took a little trip last friday to my fav city NYC for NYCC2013

here's my Comic Con image dump - with comments, since my upload didnt put them in any order.


Met Clay & Seth Mann, briefly. Seth looks like Val Kimer.  They look too cool for the convention.  Clay seemed to be off looking to meet Tom Selleck before i could pick his brain.


My swag: A Suckerpunch print by Clay Mann, love his work and love the action of this flick, i dont care how unbearable you thought it was.


My swag: Teela print by Gerald Parel, his art is siiiik, and got to chat process with him, good guy~!


My swag: an Adi Granov print, dude is incomparable, he basically designed the iron man look as you know it.


My swag: another Adi


My swag: I bought a 3rd Adi?


My swag: and a 2nd Parel =)


Casey Baugh, artist extrodinare.  I got to chat him up a bit and see his process first hand.  Amazing!


Ha, towards the end of the day i met Eli.  Well the cutout is basically as accurate as the real thing as my 4 fantasy teams can attest to - who drafts Eli in 4 leagues???


My swag: another Clay Mann, basically the reason i started to like his art is this image!


My swag: on man that's a sweet shirt


My swag: almost sweeter!

in hindsight, i would have taken more pictures but my phone was bleeding battery life as the day went on and the charging stations were insanely slow and growing more crowded by the hour.

I saw a lot of art things and really got inspired, that's my summation - A nice trip if you like geek culture and dont mind crowds.
