Here we go.

Sooo, how ya been? Been a while, no? I realized that I haven't really been drawing lately, mostly because I’ve been doing other things. But I am trying to get back in the habit. But I haven’t. Well,  I have but not really. You know? No?

How to explain...I am doing a pro-bono free lance gig. And that kind of saps me a bit. So here is one of the rejected images, because despite being a reject, I still think it has it’s merits...

And then there's this cat. For no reason. I just like him.

I think I might have to find something to do with him. I mean, he’s a sketch. I told you I am trying to sketch more. But he has some potential.

And then there’s this. Because it's a freakin' gummy bear, ok?

Ok. Well, back to it. I gotta go do some sketching. No, really, this time I mean it.

Still pretty tired.

I feel like there are probably things I should be telling you about Comic-Con, but I can’t remember any of them. It was long. It was fun. It was exhausting.

I talked to a handsome man who I think was named Ricardo, and it wasn’t until he had purchased a print and we had a discussion about it that I realized that he was surrounded by cameras, both video and non, and that he was “someone.” But I don't know who. He was very nice. Knew his comic book history, spoke with an accent, mentioned his girlfriend and when a young woman asked him to pose for a picture as he walked away from me, I heard him ask her if she was “a Latina” and when she confirmed that she was, he spoke to her a little in Spanish, told her that her costume was beautiful and that she was beautiful and then strode away, calling over his shoulder, “Be sure to watch me on....” and then I couldn’t hear him anymore. And I wish I knew who he was, but have you ever tried to good “handsome Latino actor named Ricardo” because while it's a very pleasurable way to spend your time, it doesn’t help.

Ok, so, there was a little bit of new stuff this year, and I am just gonna show it to you because...well, that’s what I do. Ok? Ok.

New Batman charm...

New TARDIS button...

Proof of early man’s cupcake hunts...

And my preferred house of worship...

.

That kind of sums it up, no? 

This one goes to eleven...but first it goes to ten.

New blog card art.

Are You My Mummy?

New for SDCC 2012...if you are a Whovian, than it's a question that makes your skin crawl. If you are not...well...sorry. Just trust us, it’s totally creepy.

Preparations.

Getting ready for SDCC is always kind of harrowing and twitch inducing. No kidding. I get an actually tic in my eye from the stress. Every. Darn. Year. *sigh*

I was trying to get ahead this year, but I also was trying to move into a new home, paint, decorate, pack, unpack and you know...it just got away from me.

But things are moving and there will be some new stuff at SDCC. Like this lovely button...

And last year we debuted our  “Superpower” line of...let’s call them talismans...intended to remind you that we all have some powers. 

I intentionally didn’t call them “Superhero” because of this guy (who was featured on bracelets and necklaces)...

...and is intended to remind you that sometimes you have to laugh at the absurdity of it all.

This year, his sometimes girlfriend will be joining him on rings and hair clips...

So, if you’ve got your tickets, please do come look for me at Comic-Con with the Tired Girl Collective (I’ll post more info later). And if you don't have your tickets...well...maybe next year.

Rock out.

I could swear she was here before...but if not, now she is. Ladies, commence rocking.
