Only a few weeks to go until the con. So, if you want a pre-con commission sketch doing then get in touch over the next week so I have time to fit it into my schedule!
I'll be there Friday afternoon, all day Saturday and for most of Sunday...I'd stay until the end on Sunday but I really want to get back for the World Cup Final and it's a long journey.
I may, or may not (we don't know yet) be sat with Russ Payne from the Jack Kirby museum.
Check out my earlier posts here, basically info and examples from previous cons: sketch commission info
and here: more sketch info and examples
I'll post more info next week!

ADVENTURE COMICS #11, Chapter One of the Adventures of the Legion of Crime
ADVENTURE COMICS FEATURING ULTRA BOY AND THE LEGION OF CRIME
This is the first chapter in a storyline that's set on Earth 3 and follows the adventures of the Legion of Crime, the Legion's evil counterparts that were inspired by the 20th Century Ultra Boy, the youthful version of the Crime Syndicate's Ultra Man.I thought it'd be interesting to follow the adventures of the villainous counterparts of the Legion that were introduced in the first issue of this commission series, seeing how they war against the Science Police, bicker amongst themselves and vie for supremacy. They use one another to their own advantage, some of them may be friends, but for the right price they'll betray them all...
Do any of them have redeeming qualities? Probably. With just doing covers there won't be much chance for character development really. But the covers will all be narrative in content. I think this first one has the least narrative...it's a basic crime scenario with some of the team hiding from the Sp, ready to attack.
Here's the uncoloured version below...
Some of the covers will be based on existing covers, I'll talk about that in future posts.
Also, a few people have asked is any of these pieces are for sale. They're not, they've all been commissioned. But, if anyone is interested then I can always do similar pieces...

SPOCK AND KIRK, BOB OKSNER STYLE
This isn't as well coloured as the Abrams piece I posted recently, I should have left the girl as an Orion...I kind of rushed it as I ran out of time...
The teen humour style Star Trek is something I'll probably come back to if I get some spare time in the future...

ADVENTURE COMICS #10: SUPERMAN AND THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES PART 5
ADVENTURE COMICS #10
The final issue in the Adult Legion storyline has Superman, the adult and the teenage Legion facing off against the Fatal Five. How does it turn out? Is Lois Lane saved from the clutches of the Emerald Eye? Unfortunately we'll never know. I'd like to read that comic though...
Next up, the start of a massive story arc that'll have major ramifications for the future of the team.
