This past weekend, StarWarp Concepts attended the latest Baltimore Comic-Con to meet old Pan-atics and greet new ones. It’s a constantly growing venue—expanding to three full days in 2014—dedicated almost solely to comics and their creators, so it’s a good thing we had copies of The Saga of Pandora Zwieback Annual #1 available so we could fit in! 😀
So how’d the show go? I’ll have an in-depth con report over at the StarWarp Concepts blog this week to tell you what went on.
Meanwhile, here are a couple of sketches of our favorite Goth adventuress that I commissioned from local artists in attendance. Check ’em out!
First up, we have pencil art from Cheltz. She was part of the PLB Comics crew at the next-door table, and at one point on Saturday afternoon she got a deep cut on one of her fingers. Since I just happen to carry a small first-aid kit in my messenger bag, I was able to provide immediate medical assistance. “Just for that,” Cheltz said, “you’re getting a free crappy sketch!” Not so “crappy,” in my opinion; in fact, I think it’s great!
This color sketch I commissioned from Danielle Sylvan Dernoga, who was sitting one aisle over. I’d passed her booth a few times and really liked her art style, so I had to have her draw Pan. Then we discussed the possibility of her doing a Pan Annual cover at some point. We’ll definitely be talking again!
Next up: the Brooklyn Book Festival on September 22. Hope to see you there!
