'Tis the (convention) season....

Hey, everyone! Just stop by today to give you an update on some appearances by some of our vaunted talents.

First off, as most already know, tonight starts the epic San Diego Comi-Con! It's the biggest show all year and it only makes sense of our awesome artists would be there. First up, we have Mick Gray, who can be found in Artist Alley at table #FF-03 throughout all five days of the show. Mick will have the usual array of prints, plus plenty of original art, and doing sketches. Also, if you are really nice, he might give you a bit of a glimpse into what he'll be doing on the reboot relaunch of Batman and Robin, in line with DC's "new 52" event this fall. So, you need to make sure to mark his table as a place to go at the show.

Not to be outdone by that, is Jason Craig, who's not just doing one show this weekend, but TWO! First, he'll be at SDCC from tonight's preview night through Friday morning. Then, it's time to hope a red-eye flight to get to the Fright Night Film Fest in Louisville, KY for Saturday and Sunday. At both shows Jason will be doing sketches and have some originals for sale, but the big news is the project he'll be debuting at these shows. I can't spill the beans, but I can say he'll be working with that living legend of entertainment, John Carpenter! Can't get to work with anyone bigger than that, unless you directly work with God himself, can you? Make sure to stop by and say hello to Jason, if you are either of these shows. Just look for the handsome fella in the pic shown here.

You can get more info on Fright Night Film Fest at their website, and more about SDCC at theirs.

Lastly, I'd be remiss if I didn't remind you that our massive summer sale is almost over. It ends tomorrow night at 11:59 PM (PST), so you've got less than 36 hours left to save. There is still a lot of great art available. So, head on over to our art gallery and place your order ASAP! We won't have another sale this big again for quite some time. You'll be sorry if you miss you chance to get some great art and a rock bottom price!

Well, that all for now. But the summer is far from over yet. I'll be back before you know it with more news and info for you all. Until then, peace out!

A new batch of art for sale from Richard Moore!

Hey everyone! Time to give you the lowdown on a new update of original art for sale from one of Sequential Treasures reliable stable of artists. This time, we have a new batch from that perennial favorite, Richard Moore!

In this update, we have two complete short stories from Richard's adult themed works. So, take note, this stuff is not meant for kids and in certainly NSFW. You have been warned. We have the 10-page tale of "The Pound: Hot Pursuit" (one of which is shown here), as well as the original 8-page story that introduced us to "Fire and Brimstone." You can view the pieces at our art gallery. Then, be sure to place your orders quickly, as our last batch of adult short stories from Richard moved incredibly quick.

Lastly, I have a small update on Richard's health. The sinus infection that prevented him from going to San Diego ComiCon is starting to clear up. The anti-biotics Richard is currently on is helping him to finally shake the bug and his doctor doesn't think it will be necessary to puncture his eardrum to remove the fluid build-up. So, good news all around. Also, Richard and his wife wanted me to extend their appreciation for all the well-wishing folks have sent their way. It actually helped them to know so many folks care about Richard's well-being. You guys are the best!

That's all for now, but I'm sure I'll be back soon with more news and art updates. The summer of 2010 is going to be the hottest on record for Sequential Treasures, but it'll have nothing to do with the temperature. Until next time, peace out!

Sequential Treasures talent at San Diego ComiCon!

Hello again, my art loving fiends. Well, with it being near the end of July, there's only one thing on most comic art lovers minds: San Diego ComiCon! Well, it's no different here, either. Unfortunately, your blogmaster will not be able to attend, but some of our stalwart artists will be there. So, here's the lowdown for you all, so you can be sure to see them in person.

First off, Matt Haley will be at Booth 2000 (otherwise know as the Bad Ass booth). He'll be there with "Bad Ass" writer, Ben Thompson. Matt will be attending all four days and will be doing a limited number of commissions at the show. Matt has assured me that the commissions taken at the show will be completed by the end of the show. So, make sure to get to that booth early to get on the short list for that.

Sadly, I have to report that Richard Moore, who was scheduled to be signing at the NBM Publishing booth (Booth 1528, for those who wish to know), will not be able to attend. He's unfortunately come down with a serious sinus infection and cannot make it. I'm sure you'll wish to extend your sympathies and hope for him to have a speedy recovery.

And lastly, today is also the final day of our massive "Summer Madness" sale. At 11:59 pm (PST) tonight, you will no longer be able to get the awesome discounts from our participating artists. So, don't waste these final hours and let these awesome savings pass you by. Miss out and it'll be some time before you have another shot. Just head over to our art gallery and place that order now!

Well, that's all for now. For those of you going to the show, have a great time! For those of you who aren't, well, you'll be in good company with yours truly and who knows, I may be back soon with a new update of art for sale for you, as I'm expecting some stuff in from some of our artists any day now. So, missing the show won't be all bad for you. Until next time, peace out!

Of Benefits and Bedevilment!

Hey all! Okay, as promised, I got some more news and info for you today. So, let's get to it, shall we?

First off, some bad news, as Richard Moore will not be making it to SDCC this year. I just learned today that he had a major breakdown on his car and aside from not having the transportation to get to the show, the money he had set aside to attend, must now go to a massive car repair bill. I'm sure you are with me, in wishing the best for Richard in this and hopes that he can make the show next year.

Second, I wanted to recap a little on the March of Dimes benefit at the Comic Evolution this past weekend. Almost $2,500.00 was raised for the charity. Randy Kintz (seen hard at work at the event in the photo here) not only did several sketches for donations, but provided a nice Batman pin up to the silent art auction. You humble blogmaster dropped $60.00 in donations on sketches from some of the other artists there and even bid on a few of the items in the auction (although, I was outbid on them all). My wife did win in it, though, and ended up getting a nice page from the comic series Alias. So, all in all, it was a very worthwhile event and helped raise much needed funds for a very good cause. Thanks to all the artists and fans who came out to support it.

Lastly, I'm just dropping a final reminder about our huge "Economic Independence" sale. There are only a few days left in it, as it ends at 11:59 PM (PST) on Sunday. So, if you have been procrastinating on placing your order, you haven't got much time left. There is still a lot of great art available, so check out our art gallery and get your order in fast. This will be the only sale we hold this year, so don't miss your one chance to get in on the savings!

Well, that's all for now. I hope to have some new shipments of art from our artists very shortly, as well as some other news about some of the things I'm working on behind the scenes. Until then, peace out!

More of Moore: Richard Moore at SDCC 2009!

Hey, comic art fiends! We're back to give you an update on where and when to see some of Sequential Treasures bevy of talents.

As everyone knows, all thoughts are turning towards the San Diego ComiCon this week. Well, this will also be the first (and probably last) chance this year for you to see Richard Moore in person. He'll be at the show Thursday through Saturday, sitting at the Antarctic Press booth. Make sure to stop by there and say hello, and perhaps even get yourself a sketch from the man himself. Don't miss out on what might be the only shot this year to see Richard.

Also, don't forget that our massive 25% off sale is now entering it's final week, as well. If you've been holding off buying to see if what you wanted would still be available, the time to jump in is now. Remember, this is likely to be our only sale all year, so don't miss out on the savings. Head over to our art gallery and place that order pronto! And don't overlook our ongoing poll question, either, which is right to the left. You'll be help us, to better help you, by getting your vote in.

That's all for now. I'll be posting again, within the next couple of days, to give you the lowdown on how the Comic Evolution's "March of Dimes" benefit went, as well as perhaps some other cool tidbits. Until then, peace out!

Emerald City ComiCon: Oh, What A Time!

Hey there, everyone. Your humble blogmaster has returned from his jaunt at Seattle's Emerald City ComiCon. Sorry for the delay in posting about it, but a good show is like a long flight, in that both will leave you jet-lagged and drained. So, I needed yesterday just to decompress a bit, but now I'm back and ready to roll!

The show was a lot of fun. I saw lots of creators, and even got some nice goodies for myself and the wife. On the business front, I didn't really sell much art at the show, but then since I was helping out at the Hero Initiative booth, that isn't all that surprising. Still, I was hoping for more, but maybe next year, when I can have a booth of my own.

My assisting the Hero Initiative was a pleasure on my part. On Saturday, I was given the special task of getting as many creators as I could to sign a Hero Initiative t-shirt, which will now head to San Diego Con for more signatures, before it is raffled off. I got a lot of folks to sign (over 60 in total), including Bruce Timm, Tim Sale, Humberto Ramos, Frank Cho, Brandon Peterson, Patrick Gleason, Amanda Conner, Bob Layton, Paul Smith, Tony DeZuniga, Joe Jusko, Erik Larsen, Jim Valentino and many others. Sunday was more my helping out at the booth. In all, the charity took in almost $5,000.00, which will go to helping many creators who are in need this year. So, a job well done on that front.

As far as what was done for Sequential Treasures, I talked with Brian Pulido and shown him the art of Richard Moore and Chris Ivy that I had brought with me. I said that if he had anything work-wise they could do, to drop me a line and I'd put him in contact with them. We'll have to see how that goes. And I did get another artist to sign up with me, so that now brings the total to three. I'll do a special blog entry about them very shortly, but I will tell you now that this will be a familiar face, if you bought art from me before. As for the pic shown above, that is yours truly with writer and Space Goat Productions President (aka, my former boss) Shon C. Bury. I'm the one on the left. It was good to see him and hook up after the show for some fun. So, while I didn't accomplish everything I hoped to do, I did make some headway. And there is another show in Spokane coming at the end of May, which I will have my own booth at. So, if you are going to be there, be sure to stop by. Before then, I expect to have some more new art from Chris Ivy and an update on my new talent. So, keep your eyes peeled and ears open, because things are just starting to get good. More to come later!
