I remember meeting you, Leanne, and Jason in the artist alley at SDCC many years ago. I was blown away by all three of you, and still am! Empty Zone was the first book I read that made me want to seriously draw for a living. It hasn't happened for me yet, but I'm on my way. When I'm not running my comic shop, I'm hunched over the table getting ink fingers. You guys, however, all got big. I knew it would happen, but I still hate you. You suck...in a good way. Keep working that magic! Oh yeah, since you're handing out signings, you want to come to my shop? :) I just had to ask. You're preaching to the choir here.

Kids deserve great art too. Mike is spot on about Jason Sean Alexander. Jason is so talented. I was able to sell many sets of Damn Nation just based upon the incredible painted cover art. Awesome stuff in IDW's Swallow (one of the reason it sold out). He is a really cool guy to meet in person. Jason's work is available this week in Dark Horse's The Secret, so buy a copy. And show SpazDog Comics some love if you are in Phoenix, AZ. Shawn I really enjoyed Mike's work on the Marvel Adventure. Kids deserve great art too. Mike is spot on about Jason Sean Alexander.

No one else seems to know how to succeed as far as I want to. You knuckleheads may be content succeeding only so far, but I want to succeed VERY far indeed. Maybe even VERY VERY far. And I liked GRAVITY, Mike. I haven't seen enough of your other work to know if I hate you or not. Though you can be sure that if I do, I'll hate you very far. Farther than you've ever been hated before. Regarding Dwight, I'm just glad to finally get some sound advice on how to "succeed very far" in comics.
