I was sharing tables with the Digital Kontent guys. The Digital Kontent table was already set & looking great. http://www.digitalkontent.com/
The show was held in one of the rooms at the Convention centre. To be honest, it was a little smaller than I hoped, but I guess that was the size that the amount of attendees demanded. cool.
the main things that stood out for me ,
Digital Kontent Table - it was easily the dopest table at the show. and exciting, don't forget
exciting.
- JohnBoy was doing a great job promoting all of our books & our raffle. & the Digital Kontent
DVD. thanks John.

- Milo was selling his great dialogue books , 'Camel & a Kiosk' (with covers by ME)
Milo actually sold out. good job Milo , it's really a great book.









- Iby was pimping his, wicked ass Sketchbook.
If you got a copy of this book then you are a lucky duck, cuz it is awesome.
It was good to see 'Toronto Convention King', Jason Troung at the show http://jtruong.blogspot.com/. I did a Usagi Yojimbo sketch for Jason the came out pretty good.
Jason also hooked me up with a Captain America Fallen Son blank cover , that I'd been looking for. Thanks Jason , you are alright.
