A not very "labor-ious" art update!

Hey there, art fiends! I hope you all had a great Labor Day holiday, as we mark the unofficial end of summer. But just because the temperatures might start to cool down, we are only heating things up at Sequential Treasures H.Q.! And what better way to show that, than with a new update of awesome art for sale.

First off, we have serveral new pin-up pieces by the illustrious Ben Hansen. In this batch we have them featuring the characters from Transformers, B.P.R.D., and a really sweet Batman (done in zombie style). In addition, we have a beautiful new pin-up of Ms. Marvel, which you can also see above, by the one-and-only Mike "Voz" Vosburg! You can check all of them out at our art gallery. Head on over and place an order. You'll be glad you did (to say nothing of the wonders it'd do for us).

Also, if you have joined our Facebook Page, you really should. Aside from also posting the latest news there, I've been doing extra fun stuff, like posting up special "sneak peeks" at some upcoming art by our wonderfully awesome rosster of talents. Recently, I posted up several preview images from the upcoming Batman and Robin #1 relaunch, courtest of our own Mick Gray, which is due out later this month. I have more coming up from others in the future. So, come over and join in the fun!

Well, that's all for this time, but there's plenty of more stuff coming up over the course of this month, including more art updates (including some art several of you have been asking for), some upcoming convention appearances, and new books hitting comic shop from several of our artists. So, it's going to be a busy month around here. You'll want to check back here often, to keep up with it all. Until next time, peace out!

Don't faint, but it's a new art update!

Hello, all! Well, I'm back with some more excitement for you all. It's a sort of bad news/good news/bad news kinda thing. So, let's get started, shall we?

First off, our big summer sale was a big summer flop. I don't want to say sales were dry, but the business was mistake for a part of southern Texas and put on a high drought warning. I really didn't know what to make of this, other than folks aren't interested in sales (which is fine with the artists and I, as we prefer getting full price for the art). So, never let it be said I never bow to the wishes of the consumer. Effective immediately, no more sales... EVER! Who says we can provide "instant gratification?" Certainly not I!

Now, while this might be considered bad news, here's the good news part. I've updated some new art for sale. Yes, an actual art updated has happened (try not to pass out). All 21 pages of Fire and Brimstone #5, featuring the peerless talents of Richard Moore, are now up on our art gallery and available to purchase. You can check them out for yourself. However, this is where the other bad news comes in, the quality of the images isn't the best. As I'm still scanner-less, I had to use an old digital camera to get the images for the gallery. They are not of the usual quality you have probably come to expect (the image shown here is one of the best of the bunch). But, when you've got no money, you do what you can. And that's what I did here. [Edit 8/5/11: Just added today are 10 new pin-up pieces from artist Ben Hansen. That makes over 30 new pieces of art for sale this week, so let's get on the stick and place some orders, folks, as you've no excuses to not do so now!]

Well, there we go. Short (somewhat) and sweet (well, maybe more bitterly sweet). That'll do it for this time, but I'm sure I'll be back soon with more stuff for you soon. I sense big changes are coming to Sequential Treasures, so I'll be sure to keep you informed. Until then, peace out!

'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!

Hitting The Shelves: Gobs #1

Hello, once more, my faithful ones. Well, as the saying goes, "when it rains it pours!" After being fairly silent for a while, now things are seeming to steamroll ahead at a breakneck speed. After yesterday's big announcement, we have some new comic work coming out this week, from our own Richard Moore.

Tomorrow sees the release of Gobs #1, from Antarctic Press. Here's the basic outline for this four issue mini-series: Gobs are the worst. Just the worst. Don't think goblins'll ever move into your neighborhood? Don't be too sure. After getting kicked out of their favorite pub, this typically vile group builds their own pub...in the hollowed-out body of a dead giant. Lovely, eh? So beware...Gobs are coming. Make sure to look for the comic shown here, when you hit your local comic shop this Wednesday. It looks to be another winner from the demented mind of Richard Moore!

Also, just a reminder, that Friday starts our massive summer sale on selected artists. So, if you want in on the huge savings, check out what's available on our art gallery and then place your orders will all due haste. You won't be sorry.

That's all for now. I'll be back soon with even more news for you. Until then, peace out!

Bringing another kind of "summer heat" to you all!

Hey, everyone! Well, summertime is officially in full swing! Things are heating up all over, but nowhere more than they are at Sequential Treasures. As those of you in the know already know, when summer hits, so does our annual major summer sale! This year is certainly no different.

So, having talking it over with our various array of talents, here's the break down of who is involved in this year's extravaganza and how low the discounts will go:

Ben Hansen: all current inventory 35% off the listed price!

Randy Kintz: all current inventory 35% off the listed price!

Richard Moore: all current inventory 35% off the listed price!

Matt Haley: all current inventory 40% off the listed price!

Wow, some major league savings on a lot of really great art! And by "all current inventory," we mean ALL of it. Cover, pages, pin-ups, the whole works. If it is on the gallery, it's at those discounted levels. But that's not even the end of it. I've decided to add a small incentive, as any order placed for over $100.00 or more, will also get a special little something from me, as well. I don't want to spoil the surprise, but I'm sure those who do so will enjoy it (and this will even be extend to purchases of art by artists not involved in the sale, as well, because I'm just a nice kind of guy that way).

So, when does all this madness begin? Well the sale starts July 1st (at 12:01 a.m. PST) and will run through July 21st (until 11:59 p.m. PST). That's three whole weeks to get in on these massive savings! So, don't delay in getting your orders in. Go to our art gallery and check out all the great stuff that's available, then place your orders promptly (as I doubt the best stuff will be sticking around very long)! Let Sequential Treasures help you kick off the summer in grand style!

Also, for those interested, Randy Kintz's commission raffle, which I told you about last time, have ended and the winners chosen. The grand prize winner is Jerry Livengood (who is obviously doing that!)! Congratulations to him! I'll try to be sure to let you all see a picture of what he chose for his commission, as soon as one is available. To get the info on who all the various levels of winners were, you can read that right here.

Well, that's all for now, but there are still other things brewing in the background at S.T. HQ, which I can't tell you about now, but will later when the time is right. Until then, don't forget to get in on our awesome summertime sale! Peace out!

Matt Haley's left turn at Albuquerque!

Hello, my fellow art fans! It would seem that things have been quiet around the Sequential Treasures HQ for a while... a bit too quiet. Well, we're hoping to change all that, with some major news bits for you all today.

First off, if you are going to be in Albuquerque, New Mexico this weekend, then you'll surely want to stop by the Albuquerque Comic Expo. Why? Well, there are lots of reasons, but none better than our own Matt Haley will be in attendance there. He'll be talking about a project he's working on with, none other than the legend himself, Stan "The Man" Lee (who will also be at the show). Plus, he'll also be talking about his awesome Star Wars fan film, Blackstar Warrior, as well as doing sketches and the like. So, if you are in the area, stop by the show and spend a few minutes with Matt. You'll be glad you did. But this is just the beginning of our news.

Randy "Rantz" Kintz also has something special going on, as well. He's holding a special commission raffle contest. The price per ticket is $5 , with a max purchase of 15 tickets per person. Only one person can win a prize, to keep it fair for everyone involved. There are also incentive prizes, for people to purchase more than one or two tickets. You can get more info on this, as well as a list of the incentive prizes right here. But your time is limited to get in on this, so don't delay in getting your chance at some really cool art and stuff. Of course, if that fails, you can always pick up something from Randy's eBay listings, or something of his from our art gallery, which are just as cool.

I also want to bring your attention to something a good firend of mine alerted me to. There is a benefit to help a family in need who lost their dad/fiancé recently. This friend also has a piece of thier own artwork as part of the benefit. Sequential Treasures has always liked to help out in situations like this, whenever we can. So, head over to the website on this, to get all the details on how you can help and perhaps get some awesome art in the process.

It wouldn't be a news report, if I didn't update everyone on the scanner situation. Well, I still haven't replaced it yet, as sales have been beyond light. Despite this, however, the problem will be resolved shortly. To get this side of the program rolling again, I made a very large personal sacrifice to get the funds needed for a new scanner. So, it will not be long before we are running at full steam with art updates again. Of course, that won't be until after the last bit of news I have for you...

As summer is officially here, you all know that it's almost time for our huge summertime sales event, that we hold every year. I'm currently working out the details with our stable of artists, but will have a more defined outline of who'll be involved and how deep the discounts will be. So, make sure to stay tuned here in the coming days, as I'll be providing that information very soon. Probably be a good idea for you to start saving your pennines now, too.

Well, that's if for now. I'll be back before you know it with our big summer sale info, as well as some other news and info as it happens. 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!

Hey, everyone! Well, with us now into August the "lazy days" of summer are upon us. However, lazy days are something we've not been having around the Sequential Treasures HQ for quite a while now, as we just keep steamrolling along. And what better way to start off a new month, than with an update of some new art for sale. Even better, it comes from our latest talent addition, Mick Gray.

That's all for now, but I'll be back soon, as we strive to keep your summer a very hot one, as far as your desires for original art is concerned. Until next time, peace out!

Massive art update from Sequential Treasures!

Hello again, my faithful ones! I'm back to make your summer just a wee bit hotter for you. You may recall, that I noted to you yesterday that I had a HUGE update of original art for sale coming, but that it wasn't by the usual band of artists you've come to know at Sequential Treasures. Well, the art has just dropped and is now available to purchase. As for the big mystery on who the art is by, well wonder no more, as I can reveal to you the names: Steve McNiven and ChrisCross!

Yep, you are reading that correctly. One of the most stylized artists and one of the most popular artists in the industry today, and we now have some of their original art for sale. I recently had the chance to acquire over 50 pages of originals by these guys. It was such a good deal, I just couldn't let it slip away. In this gigantic batch of art, we have almost a dozen pages by ChrisCross, from the short-lived DC series Xer0. Also, we have over 40 pages of art by Steve McNiven from his CrossGen days, from the titles Meridian (one the pages of which is shown right here) and Ruse: Archard's Agents: Deadly Dare one-shot (and these including a couple of breath-taking double page spreads and some incredible splash pages). Even better, all of these are priced to move! You all know Sequential Treasures has always made making original art affordable a top priority. So, you can own some art by these modern-day masters and not break your bank account to do it. Just head over to the art gallery and check out all this awesomeness for yourself. But place those orders fast, as I suspect most of the good stuff won't be lasting long.

Well, was that surprising big news or what? I've been telling you all that 2010 is going to be the best year yet for Sequential Treasures. And we are well on our way to keeping that promise. And on top of that, this update marks the 100th post entry for this blog. Just amazing! That's it for now, gang. But I'll be back soon with more news and other cool stuff for you before you know it. 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!

You surely don't want to miss that. Looks like it'll be another busy week for us, but that's how we like it here. Until next time, peace out!

Hitting The Web: God Play featuring Randy Kintz

In what has been probably the biggest news week Sequential Treasures has had in... oh, I don't know... EVER, I'm back again today with more tidbits for you. This time, it's about a place to see some new webcomic work from our own Randy "Rantz" Kintz.

As I noted a couple weeks ago, Randy is doing some work for the webcomic site called DarkBrain.com right now. Today marked the release of the first couple of pages to a multi-page feature Randy has provided the art for. The story is called "God Play" and is a bit of a departure for Randy on a couple of fronts. First, is the incredible tech and architecture involved in the story. Second , is the mature themes that this story will have (in short, this isn't meant for kids and is NSFW). Just follow the link and check out the first couple pages. The rest will be released over the next coming weeks. And we hope to have Randy's original art from this available shortly after that.

But if you can't wait for that, you can always pick up some of Randy's originals that we currently have, as well as stuff from our other talents, many of whom are currently involved in our massive summer sale (of which, Randy is one). Just head over to our art gallery and check out what's available. There's still a lot of good stuff to be had, so place those orders!

That's about all for now! Will next week be as information and excitement filled as this one has been? I don't know, but you can always be sure to tune in here and find out. Until then, peace out!
