Thanks! Guess it helps to know where I'm headed. I suppose when there's nothing left available for sale after the con, I'll take a break.

Actually, Ottley has been posting some really great pieces (not pages, mind you) on his website the last week. I think they're drawings he did awhile back, but, they're each going for $200 or $300. Really really hope I can get on the commission list, I have the most excellent idea that only a true Invincible fan would appreciate. I'm hoping Ottley will make an exception from his headshots only con sketches and do something cool for me since I'm making a special trip.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

haha. in response to this. as soon as i saw this the other day, i started trippin! i emailed Ottley via his site and pleaded to not list anything else. i know Ottley is aware of my going to the con just to see him, and i thought i presented a valid "argument". i also made an offer on the TPB cover (1 of the 3 listed). lo and behold, i awoke today to a response from someone handling the shipping of the pieces on the site. they will indeed hold back on posting any new stuff until after SLC, aaaaaannnnnddddd, my offer on the cover was accepted. woohoo! so, ill be picking up that #16 TPB cover already. i really like the other pages, but, I'm thinking quantity and quality. so far for the show, including the page from his site, I've got 3 covers already. not bad considering the show is still a grueling 10 days away.

stupid addiction.

Invincible #75 pg 26/27 pencils by Ryan Ottley



whats cool is that this issue, #75, is during the Viltrumite war, actually the tail end of it. this issue is notorious for having so many DPS in it. i actually already have the DPS directly before these pages, so, still need the following spread. maybe.

This just in, sportsfans! I emailed Ryan awhile back regarding the con next week! Here's part of what I got back.

"But yeah I'll bring tons of covers and pages. It'll be good to meet you! Thanks man. Ryan"
