Last weekend I went to Motor City Comic-Con....despite being massively disorganized, it wound up being a pretty good show. No doubt the high point of my day was finally being able to meet Simon Bisley, who I've been a huge fan of since I read his first Lobo mini series (with Giffen and Grant) when I was a teenager.

I brought the base from my JD EX for him to sign, as the piece is based on his art from Chicken Run. He was unaware of the piece, and when I showed him pics of the full diorama, he was floored. As a HUGE added bonus, he did a sketch on the base as well. This guy was awesome and chatted us up for a solid 10-15 minutes. Check out the pics!

:laugh: it's like Night at the Museum in my Nerd Cave. They all hop off there bases and beat the piss out of each other when no one's around.

Kind of unfair for the 1/6 scale pieces!
