If you're in the Memphis area the first Thursday of the month stop by Garibaldi's Pizza in the U of M area off Walker and Highland around 7pm. Lots of good cartoon fun and comics conversation to be had.
Here's a few pics from the last meeting-
Antone, me, and Janet with a copy of the War of the Independents pin-up book from SDCC 07.
Speaking of indies- Antone and his Steve Rude "The Moth" shirt.
Jane and some of her boys.
One of her others, Matt, who's a real "Stand Up" kind of guy.
Kevin and Sam. Kev's still getting over the SDCC jet-lag.
And some BIG news!
Some cool news when we got home fro the SDCC. Our buddy and fellow Memphis Mafia member Andrew Chandler won the HEROES comic contest that was held on-line at their site. Jeph Loeb announced it at the HEROES panel.
Recently, NBC issued a challenge to fans of the hit TV show HEROES. The contest was to either adapt a comic book script or mix and mash a music video. Andrew Chandler accepted the worldwide call to apply his artistic merit to the graphic novel challenge, on the grounds that he had thoroughly enjoyed the first season and had nothing better to do at the time. The winner was announced by none other than Mr. Jeph Loeb himself at the HEROES discussion panel during this year's Comic-Con in San Diego. When the dust had cleared, Andrew was left standing alone as the triumphant conqueror. Sadly, the hero of HEROES was unable to accept the honor in person and is still awaiting formal recognition from the National Broadcasting Company. Amidst accolades, he has tried to retain his humility above all and insists that he could receive no greater prize than the respect and admiration of his fellow cartoonists.
