Go con go
Thanks for the swell time, Fan Expo Vancouver attendees! I understand some of you had to wait in some pretty epic lines to get into the show, but it doesn't appear to have hurt your friendly demeanor any.
Of course, no sooner is Fan Expo over than it's time to start prepping for Calgary Expo. There's no rest for the wicked! (I am assuming cartooning is a form of wicked behaviour.) I've also got some serious colouring to do today, since a bunch of folks have exercised the "marker colour" option when scooping up the remaining "Surprise Plot Twist Sketch Off" pieces. Time to get Copic-ing!
Most of the originals are gone now, but for those interested, I still have a handful left. You can see what I've still got and what has already sold by clicking the image below, and can nab one by dropping me an email.

Fan Expo Vancouver
Alert, Vancouverites! Fan Expo Vancouver is this weekend. You can find both me and my pal Alina from Weregeek at Booth 309, where we will be drawing commissions and peddling a wide variety of books, shirts and other comic swag. Hope to see you there!
Thanks to everyone for all your great plot twist suggestions for Wednesday's Twitter Sketch-Off! In the end, I was able to draw 30 of your ideas before I passed out. You can see all 30 by clicking the image below! As always, I'm selling the original pieces for $25 each (or $50 for marker-coloured). Half of them are already gone, but if you'd like to get any of the remaining ones, just drop me a line and I will set you up!

"Surprise Plot Twist" Sam and Fuzzy Twitter Sketch-Off today!
When is it happening? Once at noon for the day crowd, and once at 7pm for the evening folks. (Pacific time -- click here to figure out when that is in your timezone.)
What am I doing? I'm spending the day drawing sketches based on the suggestions you tweet at me. (Or email me, if twitter isn't your thing.) This time, the theme is surprise Sam and Fuzzy plot twists. I want to hear all your best ideas for:
-unexpected career changes or life reinventions for the core cast (Fuzzy becomes a superhero! Buddy takes over the Ninja Mafia!)
-inexplicable secret conspiracy and explanation reveals (Noosehead enslaves the world with mind-control music!)
-surprise character returns, hidden identity reveals, secret villains and double-crossers... whatever you can imagine! (Fridge is back! As a time-traveling disco sensation!)
Just try to keep your suggestions to ones that don't require drawing a billion characters at once -- to keep things rolling, I will tend to favour the ideas that only involve drawing a couple of characters at a time.
Where can I see 'em?
I'll post the drawings on twitter as I finish them... or, you can watch a stream of the drawing process on livestream!
How can I buy 'em?
If you'd like to buy a drawing -- be it one that you suggested or just one that you like -- email me and let me know! As usual, I'll be selling the finished drawings for $25 each, or for $50 if you'd like it marker-coloured.
All right! Let's do this thing.
