Mid February Update

So i'm sitting here waiting on the new Walking Dead episode so I thought i'd do an update. I'm also printing today to restock for the coming conventions I have. First up is the Great Lakes Comic Con, www.greatlakescomiccon.org. This is a great show at Macomb Community College Feb 28 - March 1st. This year they added a Friday night preview night. While the GLCC is in it's second year the guys putting on the show have been doing smaller shows the last several years under Great Lakes Comic Expo. It's been great getting to know Mike and Marty and as a participant in their shows seeing it grow this last few years. If your in the area and are able to make it out I know I'd like to see you and they would like it also. Next up is the Lexington Comic Con March 14-16th in Lexington KY. www.lexingtoncomiccon.com This will be my first time appearing at this show, I'm real excited about it. I met Jarrod a couple years ago at the Cincinnati Comic Expo and he is a great guy. I had to bail out his first show do to a scheduling conflict, and missed last years as it fell on the same day as another show. I'm excited that this year it falls before the Megacon show in Orlando Florida. Yep I said Orlando Florida. Florida in March. Hopefully some really nice warm weather. Megacon, www.megaconventions.com is a great show i've had the pleasure to be invited to going on 7 years now. Beth and Christine who run the show put on one of the best run shows anywhere and continue to pack in more and more people. Its grown since I started going there from about 40,000 to over 60,000 people. Now I could take full credit for that, but i'm sure i only brought in just a few hundred my self. lol. But there are great fans there I love to see every year and I am super excited about the show as usual. And the warm weather. :) Besides all that i'm still working on issue 4 of the Boomtown Scabs. I have a couple more pages to draw and it's taken longer than i had hoped. I will have it for the Motor City Comic Con in May and I apologize it most likely wont be ready for Megacon. Until next time I am still and forever... Brett R. Pinson www.brettpinson.com

Let's reboot this yet again!

Hey everyone, Well i'm trying this again. Helps that where i have my internet setup, 1 and 1, as an app for that. Well for this I guess. I I've been busy working on finishing up issue 4 of Boomtown Scabs. My longtime fans are probably like, "yeah" "sure" "heard that crap before scabbie." But i swear, the first 26 pages illustrated by my pal Kevin Leen of our joint venture Fantastic Storytyme are done completely. That means colors and letters. I know right! how cool is that. now i have to create the last 4 pages and i'm hoping to have that done and sent to the printer very soon for a debut at the Megacon convention in Orlando Florida in March. I'm going to work on blogging more, even if its just ramble at times so bear with me. If your on Blogger reading this head on over to BrettPinson.com or Boomtownpress.com for my website. They are one and the same. Until next time I am always and forever, Brett R. Pinson
