Image Expo 2012 in Oakland CA was a fun filled comic weekend offering a variety of booths for just about any reading or artistic taste palette. I was lucky enough to chat with many of the authors, artists and actors which I'll be showcasing below.
The Walking Dead was out in full force and rightly so with its hit AMC television show and amazing toy line done by none other then McFarlane Toys. Talk about a booth that had it all! Good thing I brought the vials of vampire blood...that baby looked hungry.
His second piece of work is: BIG HITTERS an action/adventure comic book series created by Jonathan Goff (writer) and Travis Sengaus (artist). In a futuristic society, a government teetering on collapse has sanctioned the use of "Hitters" (or hitmen) to help clean up the galaxy following a particularly brutal and far-reaching interstellar war.
Our tale centers on a pair of Hitters (Fresh and Mack) and their day-to-day misadventures through the seediest of underworlds and darkest of back alleys as they search for the next big hit and the true meaning of vengeance.
The creators of Utopiates Josh Finney and Kat Rocha share someone information on the world they've created.
'Tale of...the near future…science is able to distill human personalities into a drug-form. Called utopiates –a merging of the words utopia and opiate– these drugs allow users to swap personalities with the “mental imprints” of other people. Every user has their own reasons for seeking chemical escape, but all soon learn the cost of soul swapping is extremely high.'
Josh Barone brings two of his latest works. Dirt Bike Ninjas and Chicken Soup for the Rubber Soul. Make sure to check this fun and quorky guy out, he's really fantastic and very unique. I hope everyone who reads this will check all these folks out, a fun and unique set of authors and writers. Hats off to doing what you love and trying to make a living in the process. Our support, in any form, is what gets these guys and gals by. Much Sheep love!
