What's coming up?

Hey everyone, I'm fresh back from Denver. Prior to that I was in Orlando and Phoenix. I had fun at all 3 shows, saw people I only get to see there and that is always great.

Now what is coming up?

More work on Boomtown Scabs 5, my goal is to get this finished and in my hands for the September shows. That includes working on putting them all into a trade collection as well.

Also, On June 27th 2016 I will be on the motownmojolive.com podcast as one of their guests. If your not busy from 7 to 9 pm hop on line and take a listen, I don't know what will be said but i'm sure it will be entertaining.

Now for other business, Commissions. Who wants a commission? $50 commissions and you get the original pencils and the finished color print. Email me at pinson.brett@gmail.com tell me what you want. Typically this is for 1 character but I do try to keep all commissions reasonable when I can make prints of it and offer them at shows. So if you want something with more than one character, email me and I will work it out. Also its not to early to start thinking about Christmahanakwanzaa gifts. Yep I help you celebrate whichever one you want. Please allow a few weeks for me to complete any commissions, and if you need it by a certain date let me know.

Ok, I'm off to do some stuff as I get more done on Scabs 5 I will be posting more here and sharing the pages.

Until next time,

Brett

After Megacon and Phoenix, headed to Denver.

I sometimes wonder if anyone reads these. I'm not a great blogger where I blog multiple times a month. In reality I barely do it once a month with missing some here and there. Missing them doesn't mean I don't think about writing them. I hope to become better but it will take time.

As for now, I've been home a week from the whirlwind trip that was Megacon and Phoenix. Being home meant rest and retooling for the Denver show. I'm headed out tomorrow with anticipation of being there Thursday and setting up. The show runs Friday through Sunday and if you don't have your tix, I hear the 3 day tix are sold out but single day ones are available.

After I return from Denver I plan to jump back into pencil work on Boomtown Scabs 5 with the intention of getting it all penciled and mostly inked and colored by the end of July. Will I make it? we will just have to wait and see. Also i've decided to work on a coloring activity book centered around my characters. I'm pondering making it part storybook part coloring book part activity book. I want it to be fun and not just capitalize on the craze that is coloring books. ;-)

Until next time, come see me in Denver this Father's day weekend and I will return here again soon.

Take care,

Brett

Here we come Megacon and Phoenix

Greetings all,

Well to start, Motor City Comic Con was as every year a great show. I love this show. It always brings out fans i've made over the years as well as a chance to see many friends, some who told me I was their first stop when they got there.

The Adventures of Carl collection went over well, i'm bringing some to Megacon next weekend May 26-29 at the Orange county convention center. I will also have my art and Boomtown Scabs comics, though I'm low right now on issues 2 and 3.

Following Megacon I'm headed to Phoenix for the Phoenix comic con. I hope everyone I met last year comes out and says hi again. I will have what ever books I have left as well as art.

I still continue work on Scabs 5 and hope to have that ready and printed by the fall. This has been a fun challenge for me as I have not illustrated a full issue before. I hope when it comes out everyone likes it.

Well this is short and sweet but back to work before I head to the shows.

Take care everyone,

your pal

Brett

Motor City Comic Con May 13-15

Hello Everyone,

This weekend is the Motor City Comic Con. I will be setup in artist alley number E20. This weekend i'm debuting the Adventures of Carl Trade i've been promising for s couple years.

Carl will be available for $15 at the show, I have 25 available this weekend. More will be ordered but for now, just 25 to kick it off.

Also I'm debuting my new print based on Rick and Morty:

Come on out to the Suburban Showplace in Novi Michigan this weekend and see all the cool stuff I brought and available from others.

Take Care,
Brett

It's May, 2016

Welcome to May,

It's started off really good. Last weekend I did the Indiana Comic con for the first time. I've done their show in Tampa twice now and I have to say I really like how they put on a comic con. Crowds at both are excited and nice. And they were gracious enough to buy some comics and prints from yours truly.

In other news, The Adventures of Carl is still slated to be launched at the Motor City Comic Con. Come on out and get your copy. I've ended the pre order of the book.

It's going to be a busy several weeks, I hope to see some of you at a convention local to you.

until then take care,
Brett

The Adventures of Carl Pre-order is now live

Hello Everyone,

Well it's here. The Adventures of Carl collection that has everything Carl from the beginning. And that's what I called it, "From the Beginning". It has all the original stories, Mini comic and full comic. As well as a bonus of Boomtown Scabs #1 where the idea of Carl was born.

Carl came from a necessity for John and I to have more than 1 comic on the table at our first show. I looked at John and said, Let's do a Carl Comic. His first response was "who?" And I pointed out the one panel in Scabs 1 that had a rabbit names Carl. While Carl was a white bunny then, we turned him into the loveable rabbit you all know to this day.

If you have all the original Carl comics, this does not have anything new for you except if you never got Scabs #1.

But with that said, I hope everyone pre-orders it and I will have 3 options. They are as follows:

Option 1
$15.00 for the trade and no shipping as you can pick it up at a show or appearance I will be at. this starts with the Motor City Comic Con. See www.brettpinson.com for my schedule of events.

Option 2
$15.00 plus the flat rate of $10 for shipping. The shipping charge is no matter how many you order.

Option 3
$30 plus the flate rate of $10 for shipping, no matter how many, and includes a sketch by your's truly.

I'm still working on Scabs 5 and will have that available this year, unfortunately not as soon as I hoped but I blame only me. Watch this and my website, www.brettpinson.com for updates and pre order options.

Until next time

Your Pal,

Brett
