Emerald City ComiCon: Post Show Report

Hey there, my artistic fiends! Well, ECCC 2011 is now in the books and history. It was a great time by all account and that includes us at Sequential Treasures. After having a couple of days to decompress from things, it's now time to give you our usual post con report.

This year was a bit different for me, as I didn't get out and about at the show like I normally do. I manned the booth most of the show (like shown in the picture here). This enabled me to see a lot of attendees, a few of whom I already knew. Many of whom, though, I did not. I did notice just how many great costumes there were this year. So, I complied a small catalog of the better one and posted those pics on our Facebook Group. If you are on Facebook, you should check these out (as well as my acerbic attempts at humor on them). Some of these folks really went all out on this.

It was good having Randy Kintz in our booth, as it made the booth feel more of a place to be (which is something I was concerned with, since our booth was on the opposite side of where artist alley was). He sold quite a few prints and did some sketches. A Wonder Woman, Lady Death, Batgirl, and Black Cat were all among the ones he did. But I think my favorite one, was a fun head shot he did of the Joker as a Green Lantern. It was certainly one of the more inventive ones I saw him do.

Speaking of prints, our Transformers jam one did very well and was quite popular with folks. Even ones who stopped by the booth and didn't pick up one, still had nothing but positive comments about it (although, maybe my blasting the Transformers: The Movie soundtrack helped in that, too). I'm certain we'll do another one for next year. I just need to pick the subject matter. Only sold a few pieces of original art, though, but hopefully, with this show growing every year, some of those big spenders will start coming to this one.

While I was at the booth most of the show, I did get out a little each day to get some comics signed and get a few sketches. I noticed that most artists prices are really getting high nowadays. So, I guess if anyone wondered if the recession is over, now you know. Being limited in my funds I didn't get nearly as many sketches as I have in past shows, but I managed to get a few nice pieces by names like Todd Nauck, Erik Larsen, Andy Kuhn and a few others. But if I have to pick my favorite of the show, it's either my Green Lantern by Francisco Herrera or the Spider-Girl by Mike McKone. Both of those were very awesome. But you be the judge and check them out yourself.

I didn't get to any of the panels, or do much comic shopping (although, I did get a decent grade Incredible Hulk #120 from 1969 for only a few bucks). I guess that's just something I'll have to start planning on for next year, because we will be back next year. I've pre-paid for an artist alley table and will have both Randy Kintz and Ben Hansen there with me again (and perhaps even on either side of my table, if things work out right). So, if you didn't get to the show this year, or if you did and just forgot to stop by, you'll have another shot next year.

Our next appearance event will be for Free Comic Book Day in Ellensburg, WA (in which I'll again have Randy Kintz in tow with me). We had a good time at Central City Comics last year and they wanted us back again this year. So, if you'll be in the area on that day, make sure to stop in an join in on the fun!

That's all for now, folks. I'll be back soon with more info on things and maybe even an art update or two. Until then, peace out!

Hitting The Shelves: Batman and Robin #20 & Chip: Second Crack #3

Hey there, my faithful fiends. We're back again with more news and info for you Sequential Treasure watchers. This time out we've got a bit of stuff to cover. Starting with multiple new comics hitting the comic shops this week, from our bevy of talents.

First off, we have Chip: Second Crack #3 from Richard Moore and Antarctic Press. This is the concluding chapter to the mini-series. This time Chip, Ash and their new friend, the Jersey Devil, all find themselves the target of a hunter, who wants to add them all to his trophy collection. Will Chip and his crew outfox the hunter, or will they end up as a new talking piece over his fireplace. Whatever happens, you know it's probably going to be hilarious getting there. So, make sure you pick up your copy of this book, which Shawn of Cosmic Comix & Toys said is "Sweet, fun and funny."

Next up, is probably the biggest release we've ever seen around here. Batman and Robin #20, which boasts a sterling new creative team, features the inking power of our own Mick Gray, who is also the series new regular inker. You can check out a preview of the issue right here. This is currently one of DC's most popular titles and is sure to only continue to be so with this team. So, make sure to get in on the ground floor to what is sure to be a great run with some very talented creators at the helm. Just look for the cover shown here at your comic shop this Wednesday.

Finally, in our countdown to show time, I'll be giving you some more info on what you can expect to see for us at the Emerald City ComiCon next month in Seattle. Today, I'm going to tell you that your blogmaster won't be the only one in the booth. I'll be sharing it with Randy Kintz and Matt Haley! And who knows what cool things they'll be bringing with them for you all. On top of that, Ben Hansen will also be making appearances at the booth over the course of the show, as well. Benn has his own table in artist alley, but he'll be spending some time at the Sequential Treasures booth, too. So, there's going to be plenty of our talent on hand for signing and sketching. Make sure to stop by booth #1007 in the exhibitor's section of the show, because we are all certainly looking forward to seeing you.

Well, that's all for now, as I don't want to overload you with the awesomeness we have planned. But I'll be giving you more info on those plans as the time of the comicon gets closer, so make sure to keep checking back here regularly (provided you don't already do so). We have a lot of cool things we're setting up for you and you certainly don't want to be left out of the loop. Until next time, peace out!

Last minute Holiday surprises!

Hey folks! Well, Christmas time is almost here. So, as your thoughts turn to merriment and all things filled with cheer, Sequential Treasures has a couple of things your should know, before your festivities get into full swing.

First off, Ben Hansen will be making his final appearance of the year this Saturday, at the Bellingham, WA comic shop call Docking Bay 93. He'll be on hand for the "Toy-apalooza" event, which is collecting gifts for TOYS4TOTS. For every toy you buy for the cause you save 25% and you will get a free sketch from Ben. He will also have his prints, Battle Amongst the Stars#3 and more on hand for sale. Ben will also be donating 50% of the profits from the sales on that stuff to the TOYS4TOTS, as well. So, if you'll be in the area this Saturday, make sure to stop by the shop and help out a very worthy cause (and maybe get a little artistic gift for yourself in the process).

Lastly, and this is a biggie, Sequential Treasures will be on hiatus starting Saturday and will not be up again for business until after the first of the year. Your old blogmaster is taking a couple weeks off to see some family and friends for the holidays. Besides which, I'm long overdue for a break and some R & R. I hope all of you will have a very safe and joyous holiday and hope you'll be as raring to go after the start of 2011 as I hope to be. Thanks for a great year, folks, but let us make next year even better!

That's all for now. I'll be talking with you all next year! Until then, peace out!

See our talent from coast-to-coast this weekend!

Hello, once more, my faithful ones! I'm back to give you the scoop on some appearances from some of our incredibly talented artists. As we speed into the holidays and towards the the end of 2010, we are also coming to the conclusion of the comic convention season. So, take note of what will be the final appearance from our talent for the year.

First off, on the west coast, we have Randy Kintz, who will be at the Portland Comic Book Show, set for this Sunday (Nov. 21st). This is the longest running show in the Portland, OR area and Randy is one of the mainstays of it. He'll be doing sketches and have his usual array of prints and sketchbooks. But he'll also be debuting a new print he's recently done of Deadpool! So, if you are in the area, make sure to stop by and pick up one of those. You can get more info at the show's website.

Next, on the east coast, our own Jason Craig will be at the Virginia Comicon this weekend (Nov. 20-21), as well. This man, who's rubs elbows with Hollywood big shot and has more than a few stories to tell from it, will also be doing sketches and have some prints available. Just check out the convention's website for more details on the others guests and attractions to be found.

And remember, these are the last appearances these guys will be making this year. So, don't miss out on your chance to talk with them and pick up some really cool art. If you miss out, you'll have to wait until 2011 to see them again.

That's all for now. But I'll be back with more news and info before you know it. Until then, peace out!

See Mick Gray in San Jose... this Saturday!

Hey, everyone! You blogmaster is back to give you the scoop on some happenings at Sequential Treasures H.Q., because you know we just keep things rolling around here.

First off, we have another appearance by one of out illustrious creators. This Saturday, Mick Gray will be at the San Jose Comics Festival. It a small event that is held in the area a few times a year. This one is the last one they will be holding this year. It also will be Mick's last appearance for the year, too. He'll' be there all day doing sketches, selling some of his originals, and talking comics (including some details on some upcoming projects that I'll be mentioning here shortly). You can get more info on this show at their website.

Then, we have the news of some art donated by our own Randy Kintz to help benefit the Inkwell Awards. This award is to help recognize the contributions and skills of comic inkers, who often get overlooked. Randy has donated a sketch cover piece, featuring the merc-with-a-mouth, Deadpool. It's on a sketch cover edition to the Marvels Project #1 and is being auctioned on eBay right now. Make sure to place a bid and help out a very worthy cause.

Well, that's all for now. But I'll be back soon, as I'm expecting some new art to show up any day now, which will be one of the last (if not THE last) art updates from us for the rest of the year, so you surely don't want to miss that. Until then, peace out!

Talent here, talent there, talent EVERYWHERE!

Hello again, my minions of comic art goodness! Well, the year is quickly speeding to its close, as we have less than two months left in 2010. But if you think this means that those of us at Sequential Treasures plan to rest on our laurels, you couldn't be more wrong. We plan to keep the momentum from October rolling on. In fact, this weekend you have multiple opportunities to see some of our awesome creators in person. Here's the 4-1-1 on where and when...

First off, that bastion of horror artistry, Jason Craig, will be at the Memphis Comic and Fantasy Convention. This is a two day event, but unlike most show that would be Saturday and Sunday, this one is Friday and Saturday (Nov. 5th and 6th, respectively). Jason will, of course, be signing comic and doing sketches for fans, but he's also bringing some new horror related prints with him, which will be unveiled at the show. I asked him what they were, but he wanted to stay tight-lipped on this. So, you'll just have to make sure to stop by and check them out. Here's the show's website, where you can get all the details on the location and other guests.

As if that wasn't enough excitement for you, both Randy Kintz and Ben Hansen will be at the Bellingham Comicon, which is also this Saturday, as well. Both of them will be sketching and bringing there usually large bounty of prints and sketchbooks. This will also be Ben's last show appearance for the year, too. You can get all the info on this show at their website. Are you excited, yet? Didn't I tell you 2010 was going to be the best on record for Sequential Treasures? You know your blogmaster doesn't lie!

Well, that's it for now. But I'll be back with more news, info and updates soon. Until then, peace out!

Hitting The Shelves: Brightest Day #12

Hi-ho, all! Time to, once again, drop some info on some new comic book goodness due out this week, which features some of the artistic skills of Sequential Treasures roster of talent.

Coming out at all comic shops everywhere this Wednesday is Brightest Day #12, the latest chapter in the big event going on at DC. As those of you who've been following it know, these books are usually worked on by multiple artists. Well, our own Mick Gray got to ink a few pages in this issue, over the pencils of Patrick Gleason, on the Martian Manhunter part of the tale. According to Mick, it features a somewhat intimate moment between J'Onn and the female green martian. Just make sure to be looking for the cover shown here, when you pick up your weekly batch of comics this week. You'll thank me later.

Also, I have a couple other tidbits for you. First off, is to give a reminder to you that the Marla Bea Benefit comic art auctions, to help raise funds to fight breast cancer, ends tomorrow. Several of our artists did their part in creating an original sketch.pin up piece for the auction, so make sure to do yours and bid on them. Many of the pieces are still at their starting bid prices, so you can get some great art, for a great price, and help out a great cause. You can see the auctions right here.

Then, we have our second reminder about the 50% off sale on all Randy Kintz's current stock. We're over the halfway mark on the sale and there's still a lot of great art available. So, don't delay in placing your orders. Head over to our art gallery and check out all we still have in stock! Do it now, because you won't have another chance of a deal like this for quite some time!

That's about all for now. Tomorrow, I'll have a brand new update of art for you all! I hope you'll all come back for that, as the busy fall season just keeps on rolling around here. Until then, peace out!

See Randy Kintz and Wizard World New England this weekend!

Hello, once again, my faithful minions! The hectic pace of October continues here at Sequential Treasures, as I tell you of an upcoming appearance by one of our own.

This weekend, October 15-17, is Wizard World New England in Boston, MA. It is one of the last big shows of the 2010 convention season. As with all Wizard World shows, this one is jam packed with guests galore. one of them is our own Randy Kintz, who will be attending. He will have his usual array of prints and his new 2010 sketchbooks with him, as well as be doing sketches for those lucky enough to request them. The event will be held at the JOHN B. HYNES VETERANS MEMORIAL CONVENTION CENTER. To get more info on the other guests and events there, as well as ticket information, just head over to the show's website.

Of course, if you can't get to the show, you can still get some great Randy Kintz art from us, as we are about halfway through Randy's massive 50% off sale on all his current inventory. Pages, cover, pin ups, it's all 50% off! So, head over to our art gallery and check out all of his great art that's still available at this incredible discount. Then, place those orders before all the best stuff is gone!

That's it for now. I'm expecting some new art to update over the next week, so be watching for that. As for which artist(s) to expect it from, I think I'll keep it a secret for now. Until then, peace out!

Please help us support a very worthy cause!

Hello, everyone. I promised you yesterday I had some very special and important news for you all.

As we all know, October is the month for scares and horror, but it isn't just those we get from Halloween ghosts and goblins. There's also the real horror of deadly diseases, like breast cancer, which is why October is also breast cancer awareness month. This disease will touch millions of lives this year and that is why Sequential Treasures and her artistic roster want to try and help.

To that effect, we are working with The Marla Bea Benefit. This annual event reaches out to the comic book creative community and asks them to donate original pieces of art, in the hope of finding a cure. All artists involved create an original sketch/pin up of a strong female character from comics and add in the pink breast cancer awareness ribbon or the the color pink. We help out last with this event and we are doing so again this year. All the donated art are now being auctioned off on eBay. Our own Mick Gray, Randy Kintz, and Ben Hansen have generously donated an original piece for the cause. Last year they raised over $4,200.00 for the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. We'd like to see that record broken this year and that's where you come in.

By bidding on these pieces, you are helping to generate funds to help find a cure for this terrible disease. All proceeds from the auctions go to the Holden Center, so please bid high and bid often. With your help we can help make a difference in the lives of women and their families everywhere. This is certainly a most worthy cause to fight for!

If you would like to see the pieces donated by our artists, please go to our Facebook forum and you may view them there. Until next time, peace out and thank you!

See Jason Craig in Eerie, PA this weekend!

Hey, folks! I'm back once more, with info on an event appearance by one of our own talented artists.

As we all know, October is the month when our thoughts turn to the dark and scary. It is the time of Halloween and all things horrific. With that in mind, if you are in the area, make sure to stop by the Eerie Horror Film Festival in Eerie, PA this weekend. The hardest working man in comics, Jason Craig, is one of the guests. Fresh off his trip to Texas last weekend, Jason is doing a little globe-trotting to meet and greet the fans. He'll have some cool new prints at this show, as well as doing sketches. He'll also be bringing some of his art from the second Jason vs. Freddy vs. Ash mini-series. This is a four day event, running from the 7th until the 10th, and Jason will be there for all four days. This is the seventh year for this show, which has lots of great guests from comics, film and television. You can get all the details on where the show is and who else is there at their website. Of course, if you can't make the show, you can always pick up some of Jason art from us at our art gallery.

Also, speaking of which, don't forget about the "Treat-Not-Trick" 50% off sale on all art from Randy Kintz. We are almost a week into it, so you only have a few weeks left to get in on this tremendously generous opportunity by Randy. There's still a lot of great pieces available, so get your order in before all the good stuff disappears like a ghost. Just head over to the art gallery and place your order.

Well, that's it for now. I have more stuff coming this week, so keep watch here for more updates soon. Until then, peace out!

Sequential Treasures to rule the Jet City ComiCon this Saturday!

Hello, once more, my art loving fiends! I'm back again to bring you more news on the goings-on at Sequential Treasures HQ, where we are always cooking up cool stuff for all of you.

This new show is really starting thing off right, as they've asked several of Sequential Treasures own roster of talent to appear (which they were more than happy to do so).

And, of course, all of them will be doing sketch for the masses. You can see pictures of the new prints and other exclusive items at our Facebook Forum, while you can get the full lowdown on the show (and the other guests to be there) at their website. Your semi-humble blogmaster will also be there, but not in an official capacity, just as a fan. But if you happen to catch me drifting about, make sure to say hello.

That's it for now. I have lots of cool stuff I'm getting ready to start shooting down the pipeline to you, so be ready for more major happenings and info soon. Until then, peace out!

See Mick Gray in Sacramento this Sunday!

Hey there, once again, my fellow art fans! Time to drop a quick bit of info to you on an appearence by comic inker extraordinaire, Mick Gray!

Seems he got a last minute invite to the Sac-Con is Sacramento, CA. The show it scheduled for this Sunday. Asside from the usualy stuff, there will also be a costume contest, an art contest, and some other surprises. Mick will be on hand with some original art he's selling, as well as the fact he'll be doing some sketches, too. This is the longest running comic related show in that area, so if you are around there, make sure to stop by and show Mick some love (and some cash, too). You can get all the details on the show at their website.

This, is on top of having our instore siging and sketch event with Randy Kintz today in Yakima, WA. Your blogmaster will also be there with lots of original art for sale at that event, so it looks to be a busy weekend for Sequential Treasures and our talent.

Of course, if you can't make either of these events, you can alway stop by our art gallery and place an order for some art online. It might not be as fun as seeing us in person, but you know you'll still be treated right and get some of best comic art available.

That's it for now. I'm hoping my next post will be about a fabulous new art update, as I'm expecting some new stuff from some of our talented artists any day now. Until then, peace out!

The "heavenly" art of Randy Kintz!

Hey, my loyal art minions! As the unofficial end of summer quickly approaches, we here at Sequential Treasures want to end the season right, as we cap off what has been a crazy time for all of us here.

I said yesterday that I was going to hit you with some special news today, well, here it is:

First, Randy Kintz original card set, titled "Rantz Angels," is now available for sale. Featuring a 50 card base set, plus one original sketch card, you'll see the artistic prowess of artists like Jason Martin, Joe Pekar, (the late) Pat Carlucci, Jason Metcalf, Randy Kintz, and a host of others, as they provide you a true masterwork of "heavenly bodies" to behold. But the sets are limited to only 1,000 copies, so get your order in fast, before they disappear as quickly as any other angelic vision. You can place your orders for them at the Sadlittles.com website.

Secondly, this Friday, you'll have the chance to see Randy in person, as he does a local in-store signing & sketch event at Ron's Coin & Collectibles in Yakima, WA. He'll have comics and prints for signing (including a new color edition of his popular JLA print), as well as be doing sketches. Sequential Treasures will be there, as well, with tons of great comic art for sale. There will be free refreshments for those who attend and maybe even a few surprises, too. The event runs from 5 pm to 7 pm and we hope to see lots of folks turn out. It's sure to be a fun time.

Well, that's all for now. I hope to have some new art updates for you soon, as well as more news on our artists. Until then, peace out!

See Jason Craig at the 2010 Fright Night Film Fest this weekend!

Hey, everyone! Well, we are heading right into the "dogs days of summer," but the temperature outside won't help prevent your blood from turning cold with horror, after you read today's news! That's because our own Jason Craig will be at the 2010 Fright Night Film Fest in Louisville, KY from July 30th-August 1st. Looks like you can never get the Halloween spirit kicked off too soon.

This is the sixth time for this annual event, where all things dark and horrific are brought up into the light. You can get all the full details of what's going down there at their official website. So, if you are going to be in that area this weekend, make sure to stop by artists alley there and say hello to Jason. He'll have prints on hand for sale, as well as be doing some sketches, too.

That does it for now, but I'll be back soon with more goodies for you, including an art update, but not of any of our usual suspect around here. What do I mean? You'll just have to wait and see (Oooo, cryptic). Until then, 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!

The Spokane ComiCon aftermath report!

Hey everyone! Well, I'm back from the Spokane ComiCon this past Saturday. I don't know if any of you were there, but if so I hope you enjoyed yourselves.

The attendance for this year's show was the best on record in the event's four year history. There were plenty of great comics around, both from dealers and creators who happened to be on hand. Our own Randy Kintz and Ben Hansen were there, slinging prints and sketches (I even picked one of the latter up from Randy myself).

Lots of people came dressed up in costumes for the contest they were holding. I don't think I'd see that many people made up since Halloween. I managed to get a couple of snapshots of some of my favorites, along with a couple other con pics, which you can see posted at our Facebook forum.

I handed out some business cards and had some nice chats with folks about comics, art, and just stuff in general. If there was any downer, it was, as always seems the case, a lack of sales. In fact, not one thing sold at my table. Don't let that photo of me above fool you, because while lots of people looked at stuff, no one ever went for their wallets. I'm really at a loss for what else I can do. People don't even want to haggle over the prices. I can't do much, if folks don't even want to talk.

Overall, I'd say I had a good time, although most of that was due to my after show activities, which includes, but isn't limited to, being mistaken for being a member of the band The Bare Naked Ladies (you'll have to talk to me in person, if you want the details on that one).

I don't know if I'll be going to the show next year, given how I've crapped out at making sales for the last two years running. In fact, I'm not sure if I'll do any more shows at all, given the apathetic response I've gotten from the OA fanbase and larger comic community as a whole. Doing shows are not free or cheap for any of us who work them, so when you folks don't spend, you take away a lot of reason for us to go. Just something you all might want to think on.

Well, that's all for now. I hope to have some new art updates for you soon. Until then, peace out!

See Sequential Treasures in Spokane this Saturday!

Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay in posting up more info here, but your humble blogmaster has been dealing with a couple of real personal headaches. First is jury "doodie," which is thankfully done now. Unfortunately, that is due to headache #2, which was having my home broken into and robbed (no worries, no one was injured, as they broke in while no one was home). So, things have been... hectic... the last few days.

Anyway, this Saturday is the Spokane Comicon and Sequential Treasures will be there in force! Not only will I be there, with all the original art we have available in tow, but so will our own Randy Kintz and Ben Hansen! In fact, of the two, Ben also have a new exclusive print he's done for the show, featuring Black Widow vs. Hit Girl, as the ladies from the two biggest superhero films of the year (so far) are poised to throwdown (you can see the full colored piece right here). Inks on this are provided by Levi Skeen (who will also be at the show). But don't wait to long to get one, as the supply is limited to a mere 25 copies of this awesome print! Both of them will also be doing sketches, for a modest fee, as well.

I hope to see some of you there, so make sure to come on down to the show, if you are in the area! I, as well as Randy and Ben, will be glad to meet and greet with you (as well as relieve you of some of the burden of a heavy wallet (heh-heh).

That's all for now, I'll be back soon with a con report and hopefully some new art from our artistic trove of talent. Until then, peace out!

Sequential Treasures celebrates Free Comic Book Day!

Hey there, my faithful fellows! I've returned to give you all the inside scoop on more happenings with Sequential Treasures and her artistic talent. Today, I want to hit you all up with the plans we have for Free Comic Book Day this Saturday.

First off, Randy Kintz and yours truly will be doing a event (along with artist Jason Metcalf) at a local comic shop in Ellenburg, WA called Central City Comics! To get into the spirit of the day, in addition to the free comics that will be on hand, the owner has said they are going to have lots of $1 comics and $10 trade collections available to buy. On top of that, they will be holding a canned food drive for F.I.S.H ( which stands for Friends In Service to Humanity). It's a local food bank, which helps those in need. To sweeten the pot of giving, for every can of food you donate to the cause, you will get a ticket to be entered into a raffle drawing for some awesome prizes, such as a complete set of Lantern color rings from "The Blackest Night" event, as well as gift certificates, and a chance to win an awesome original art jam piece, featuring Iron Man vs. War Machine, which was created by Jason Metcalf and Randy Kintz specifically for this event (I'll have a scan of the image for you all tomorrow, so make sure to come back). There will also be an exclusive print of it available, as well.

As for Sequential Treasures, well, we'll have all our original art on hand to sell (with some discounted prices on some things), as well as Randy Kintz doing sketches, selling his large array of prints, and autographing copies of his hit mini-series Drone. All of this will going on from 12pm to 60 pm (PST). So, if you are going to be in Ellensburg on Saturday, makes sure to stop by and check out all the good times to be had there. You can get the full details and address info from right here.

Also, our own Ben Hansen will be doing a sketch and autographing event for his local shop Docking Bay 93, in Bellingham , WA, as well. So, if you can't make one event, you have another chance to see some of Sequential Treasures talent in person. You can get the info on this event from this website.

Well, that's it for now. Be sure to come back tomorrow to check out the awesome Iron Man vs. War Machine jam piece, which will be raffled away to one lucky winner this Saturday. Until tomorrow, peace out!

Matt Haley at Norwescon this weekend!

And the Sequential Treasures train just keeps chugging along, with more news an info to bring all of you comic art lovers out there.

Today I get to inform you that Sequential Treasures resident superstar, Matt Haley, will be at Norwescon 33 this weekend. This is the Pacific Northwest's premiere sci-fi and fantasy convention. It is being held at the DoubleTree Hotel Seattle Airport, in SeaTac, WA. Matt will be there doing sketches and the like from 2pm to 6 pm on Saturday and 10 am to 2 pm on Sunday. If you are in the neighborhood, make sure to stop by and check in with him. To get the full guest list and other info on the show, just head over to their website.

And also, don't forget all the new art for sale from Matt, that we just put up at our art gallery. Plus, he still has a couple of commission slots still open right now, but that can change very quickly, so if you'd like one from him, get your order in now. You can see his rates right here. So, even if you can't make the show, you can still get some Matt Haley artistic goodness for yourself.

Well, that's it for now. It sure has been busy around these parts the last couple of weeks, but that's how we like it. I'll be back soon, with a report on the Comic Evolution event I'll be at on Saturday, as well as new art updates (I hope). Until next time, peace out!
