D23 is the best Con EVER!!!

Ahem, Pardon me while I regain my composure.

Allow me to repeat, the D23 expo was phenomenal. From the way the show was run to the people who came out to see us, we could not have had a better time. Allen Gladfelter, Amy Mebberson and I were busy from the opening on Friday to closing on Sunday.

Most of the show was spent doing commissions. I've posted most of the art on my Tumblr feed but I did save a few for the blog. Like....

An ancient Japanese Mickey and Minnie.

Scrooge McDuck and Angus Mcgonagle, the Gershwin Gargling Gargoyle doing their best to give Scottish stereotypes a bad name.

But sometimes you don't need a fancy scenario. Just someone's favorite character will do.

And even though this was Marvel's first dip into Disney's fandom, DC heroes were the most popular mash-up request.

But far and away the most fun commission ideas came from attending Disney cast members. The ride operators were especially creative. Like the sick folks from the Haunted Mansion.

At least the folks who operated the various Disney Railroads had a little more decorum.

Now I'm new to this whole phenomenon with the Disney pins. Some people offered us quite a few nice ones for trade or just really great gifts. As you can see my Darkwing Duck and Scrooge collections are off to a great start.

And what would a trip to Anaheim be without a stop by Disneyland. Amy, Allen, former DW editor Aaron Sparrow and former DW designer Erika Terriquez and I are giddy as can be as we are about to embark on the new Star Tours.

But all good things must... something, something. Now I am back at work on, uh... Duck Tales?!?!? That's right. I'll be inking and contributing pencils to Kaboom's final two issues of DT and I will be producing all the usual film-flam for DW. And if I survive all that. I'll be back with details on the upcoming New York Comic Con.
