Had a great time at the Chicago Wizard World Con!

For all of you who came by, thanks! We had a great show, and it was nice to meet the first timers and see the regulars.

Image had a great presentation booth for Brian and I and they made everything great. Thanks Jim, Sean, and Bozzi!

We had some fun discussion panels, and I was happy to see Brian win awards at the Wizard Awards. I was nominated for best painter, but Alex Ross got it. We ran into him and his lovely girlfriend at our hotel later that night, and he actually was trying to give me his award statue. At one point he actually placed the award in my hand and insisted that I take it. It was a surreal moment. And Alex was cool as always. Bendis said he would have taken it.

Everyone was very nice. The entire thing was very fun. Image brought a BIG birthday cake to Brian's table on Saturday and all of our fan's sang to him and got cake.

Saturday night at the Marvel Knights dinner, Brian also had a surprise birthday party. It was a lot of fun. All of my favorite artists and writers were there, and it was good to hang out with them and talk and eat the GREAT food that Marvel Knights provided! Thanks Nanci, and Joe!
I talked there a bit with Paul Jenkis, Jose Villarubia, Joe Linsner,Jenny Lee, Kevin Smith, jeff Loeb (who I had not spoken with very much before, and he was very nice and friendly to me. Was good to speak with him), Stuart Moore, Joe and Nanci Quesada (Anh was holding their baby most of the time), Greg Horn, and a who's who of the industry.

Mostly Brian and I were just delighted by all of the great feedback from our readers and the positive feeling that everyone at the show seemed to have. It was a very great experience.
