So New York Comic Con has come and gone and it was a great experience. New York is easily the largest con that the Identity Crew has ever set up at and we did a great job networking and selling. Icouldn't have asked for a better show. New York con goers showed us so much love that it was unreal. I guess what they say is true. "If you can make it there you can make it anywhere".

Everyone in the studio sold a bunch of their new art books as well as The Brotherhood: Behind the Cage (Con Exclusive). The response from Everyone was fantastic.

I do still have some of my artbook theFranchize: Start Up Capital available for purchase. If you are interested just shoot me a note. Each book comes with a free sketch of the character of your choice. The book is $30 plus $10 shipping. It's 72 full color pages of my personal and professional work.

I have to say thank you to everyone who came out to say hi and show support. Yall have no idea how much it means when you guys take time out of your con experience just come and chat with me for a sec.Below are a few of the commissions I worked on at the con. Lots of fun stuff. Hope yall dig it.

Baltimore Con and New York Con in Full Effect

So to start I wanted to give yall a first look at Identity Comics Studio's "The Brotherhood of Fighters". All of Id has been hard at work retooling our ideas for the Brotherhood and we have some really big things on the horizon. We will be producing a brand new graphic novel featuring these characters. The book will be released in time for San Diego Comic Con in 2012. But we will begin promoting the book right now and we will release a preview book at this year's New York Comic Con.

Aww man! The world tour is going strong. and I had a blast in SDCC. We really made the best of our time ( I may have even gotten some work out of it)and had an opportunity to hang out with some of the coolest cats in comics. We got to chill with fellow Deviants like just to name a few.

From there joined and I at the Steel City Con where we got to hang out with our homeboy and we met . We really had a chance to meet some great people and do a bunch of sketching.

Next up is the Baltimore Comic Con which is our hometown show so we are really gonna go all out. You can look for the crew to be in full effect. and myself to be doing commissions signing prints and talking up our book, "The Brotherhood of Fighters". Also the first 4 Deviants to mention this journal will get a free commission! what could be better than that?

Finally and myself will also be setting up in artist alley at the New York Comic Con for the very first time. Again we will all be signing prints and doing commissions plus we will have the preview book for "The Brotherhood of Fighters" in hand and available to buy. Be the first kid on your block to be in on the hottest project we have produced to date!
