Our visit to the San Diego Comic-Con was a resounding success! Interest has definitely waxed stronger due to our booth there! We have Larry Loc to thank, to a large extent, for our continued momentum during these lean months! Larry you're a scholar and a gentleman. Our rolodex runneth over due to Larry's openness and bigness of heart!

Hey everybody,
We will be interviewing Larry Loc, a former student of Ric's from the Kubert school, tomorrow in beautiful Laguna Niguel. Larry is quite a mover and a shaker; he set up the appointment with us right at San Diego Comic-Con! We can't wait to see him, and talk about the memories of Ric in those days.

It's taken a little while to post here, but it will be well worth the wait; we interviewed Mark Evanier, as well as 4 other former students and co-workers of Ric's, challenged Wesley Snipes to a push-up contest (his Ex-Marine bodyguard told us 'No, thanks'), and rubbed elbows with the current stars of Comic-Bookdom at the Eisner awards! It was an awesome event, with a most impressive turnout, and a classy venue, as usual. Look for video from our adventure to appear VERY SOON!

It doesn't get much bigger than this:
Tyrese Gibson (Transformers | Revenge of the Fallen) has been hard at work promoting his upcoming comic book, entitled 'Tyrese Gibson's MAYHEM'... It's big. How big? This big:
When Jim Lee, Todd McFarlane and the other trend-setters of modern comics are blessing a project like this, there's no use trying to fight it. It will blow the doors off the current print industry.
My bet; movie rights are sold within 3 months. Script developed in 6-8 months. Production completed within 18-24 months... any takers...? Didn't think so. Tyrese is a genius.
Oh, when you're at the San Diego Comic Con, don't forget to save a few bucks (after you buy a copy of Mayhem) for a limited edition Ric Estrada Movie T-Shirt and Poster at booth FF-14 in Artist Alley! Ric's son, Marc, (who cut short a career in fine art to go 'slumming it' with Phil Tippett Studios ;) carefully created a layout that uses an unreleased, never-before-seen war image of Ric's from 1951!!! Visceral graphic quality. The transcendence of the warrior's path. Believe me, you will be quite sad to miss the collector's opportunity of a lifetime - Owning a limited edition reprint of Ric's unreleased pre-Silver Age artwork! Can you smell the Pen and Ink...? I can. I have only a few of them, and they're waiting for you, but not for long.

Ric Estrada Movie will have limited edition t-shirts and posters for sale at the Ric Estrada booth in Artist Alley. These items will not be available anywhere else in the world, and when they are sold, that's it!

I twisted my ankle big time. Doing what? Messing around with my buddy, learning Muay Thai, or "Nine Weapons"... So my foot is sitting in a big mixing bowl filled with ice, and a little water to really help get that chill deep down into the tendons. Thank goodness I'll be sitting down most of the time at ComiCon, otherwise this would be a serious problem. (Yes, it's that bad!) I've included a picture of the results of my shin conditioning to help prove the point: the Martial Arts are risky. Live by the sword, die by the sword... sometimes it's your own sword. Just ask Kurosawa :)
In case you're wondering what any of this has to do with the Ric Estrada Movie, here it is: I can no longer go to ComiCon as Richard Dragon, because I know I'm not hardcore enough :( So look for me to appear as someone else from Ric's rich comics career.
