Here's what you can do to help
1) Click lots and lots of pages, especially comic book article pages here at Suite 101
2) Write in to editors clamoring for more comic book articles.
3) Insist they give me a stipend for this work. That way my family will approve of my writing here and I can make a few bucks.
Well, I can dream, can't I?
Here's a picture of Green Lantern Artist Ethan Van Sciver - It has nothing to do with today's article, but it's a great picture; also, a not so great picture of silver age artist George Tuska.
Okay, here's the scoop on MegaCon 2005
First up, Arnie Star (The longest running artist on Star Wars comic books) with movie previews. (Yeah, I never heard of him either, except for trailers at conventions. I have seen some minor work he did at Marvel.) I could not stay for all of the trailers, as Arnie put on a behind the scenes look at the Discovery Channels "making of" some TV show on "What if Dinosaurs were real in Medieval times? It was good, but went on, and on, and on twenty plus minutes. So if I missed some important announcement at the end of the movies, add it to the discussion here. Or you could sue me. Or you could send me a check (Just kidding).
Again I digress. Here are the comic related scoops
