It is finished... At last

(Brian)

Well, I guess it's true what they say: It is always darkest before the dawn... And no I am not talking about my web-designer.

Just as the fate of the LXSG looked extremely dim, Brendan (the Printer) redeemed himself and got the book to us... That's right kiddies...

The League of Extraordinarily Stupid Gentlemen - Issue #1 is complete and printed...

Between Preston and Steve and the ones we'll be distributing, there are approximately 2100 copies floating about. Keep tuned to WMMR and to this blog to learn where to get them. Oh, and they look awesome. Probably the truest representation of the colors from the computer I have ever seen. Quality Concepts did a phenomenal job. It was worth the wait (though don't get me wrong- I want issue #2 BEFORE the convention next year) Still, I can't wait to get feedback from all you guys. I hope you dig it... Now I just need to edit together the clips some of the more obscure jokes came from...

Good-Bye to Wizard World

(Brian)

Well, as you can see, not a whole lot changed between Saturday and Sunday. Actually, Sunday was REALLY slow for us. No Shirts or no sketches were sold. But at least I had some time to wander around and find some of the comics I was looking for.

All in all, it was a very nice experience. It could have been better but we learned a lot of important lessons and made some friends with our neighbors.

So as a fitting tribute, I figured I would share some of the pics from our last day.

You know how often you run across sith lords in training... Pesky buggers pop up everywhere...

These were our neighbors, A Wave Blue World. They make a kick ass comic called Adrenaline. It's a solid read. You can pick some up at their site.

Well, Dawn made a good friend from our neighbors on the other side - Creature Graphic Novels. Then they joined the Green Lantern Corps and flew off to space... Or maybe not... But they got the rings

This was a kick ass chalk drawing they had done inside the convention hall... It took the guy all weekend but it's totally bad ass...

And with that, we say good-bye until next year and ride off into the sunset...

Wizard World - Day 2

(Eric)

Hi all, Bungo here! We survived day 2. It didnt go off without a hitch but it went off. We sold a hell of alot more than we did yesterday. We sold 3 shirts (gave another 1 away to a local preston and steve blood donor) and we sold 1 thong. We had quite a few people recognize us and question our work. And we met a few new friends. Its amazing how many people approached us and commented on our work and product. It was alot of fun and I hope to see some of you tomorrow!

Wizard World - Day 1

(Brian)

Well, we're here at Wizard World. Not a lot of people know about us since the comic wasn't printed and thusly we didn't get on the air. Needless to say, the printer isn't my favorite person right now...

So we are currently promoting shadows of a finished book. But if anyone actually reads this blog, please stop by and say hi. We'll be here all weekend long...

We have shirts for sale and the proof of the LXSG on display. We also have some pages of Menace that are getting worked on here at the show. I'm also doing sketches for $5, $10, and $15 depending on the detail...

A Few Days to Go

(Brian)

Well, no one posted any bad things about me... That's a good thing, I guess. We are only a matter of days from the convention. I am going nuts trying to finish everything. But the good news is the clothes we hope to sell are here and we even got an extra thong out of it. I also dropped off the promos, including the one accompanying this post, at Kinkos. They ought to be ready by Thursday evening.

Listen to Preston and Steve Thursday Morning for the information you will need to get a copy of the LXSG comic book. There will be a special password you will need to say in order to get a copy. I used the very scientific method of saying Preston- and-Steve-isms until my son laughed. I think he chose wisely. I'll hopefully be able to post updates from the convention.

The Countdown is ON!!!!

(Brian)

Well, The countdown is definately on. We are under two weeks to go until Wizard World Philly gets here.

I have a load of shit to get done before the show so don't expect much more from me until then. I can tell you to expect another visit to the Preston and Steve show before then and I promise some new artwork will be on display at the convention but I have no idea how much... It's eally a crap shoot. I'll see if I can get one of my cohorts to post a few updates here and there in the meantime. Until then, listen to Preston and Steve on WMMR to find out when will be on... Oh yeah, speaking of them, We got two mentions this past Thursday if you caught them... It still makes me giddie to hear them mention the characters...

One last thing before I go, If you haven't already done so, Become a friend of the LXSG over at http://www.myspace.com/lxsg. I really want to push a Myspace blitz if I can.

Alright, I'm out like Pet Rocks.
