Post-Pgh Comicon

 Had a great time over the weekend at the Pgh Comicon! This is my local con, so it was cool to see it from the other side for a change. As always, I met a bunch of cool people, and I was able to catch up with a few people I'd met at previous conventions. I'll be attending New York Comic Con in a couple weeks, though I won't have a table, and that's all I have lined up at the moment. I'll be looking around for more conventions to get tables at, though, so keep an eye out for more info.

Anonymous Nancy Issue 2 is moving along quite nicely, and I have a few other projects that are beginning to take proper shape. Hopefully I'll have more updates in the near future on those.

That's all for now.

Pittsburgh Comicon

Just a heads-up, I will have a table in Artist Alley at Pittsburgh Comicon, that's this weekend at the Monroeville Convention Center. I'll have issues of Anonymous Nancy #1 and issues of Lunatic Fringe, as well as the Lunatic Fringe poster. Also Roy, the artist on Nancy, may stop by and sign a few copies, so keep an eye on my Twitter! Also, check out my tumblr, I promise to start posting more things there at some point.

Anyway, I think that's all I have right now. I've been revisiting a few older ideas, getting them closer to a place where I can start seriously outlining them. I'm always on the lookout for artists interested in collaboration, FYI! Also, I may post something later about the Agents of SHIELD premiere. But I might not. We'll see.

Thanks!

Post-BCC

Had a great time in Baltimore, once again I met some very cool, friendly people! I got some great advice from people who have been doing this longer than me, and I got to talk with a bunch of cool people. It's always awesome to get to spend time with other creators. I will try this week to get through all the stuff I picked up and get in touch with people I said I'd get in touch with. There were a lot of things I wanted to take a closer look at but didn't have time, and I'm looking forward to checking that out online as well.

If you didn't make it out to Baltimore, all I can say is that it's worth the effort, it's a great show. So a big thanks to the convention organizers and everyone that showed. Thanks also to everyone that stopped by my table and picked up a comic(s), I hope you enjoy it! Or if you just stopped by and said hi, it was great to meet you!

In other news that 'big announcement' I was teasing, I wanted to wait until I had a date, but it looks like that's going to be a bit further off than I thought so I'll just spill the beans now. Anonymous Nancy #1 has been accepted by comiXology Submit! Based on info from their website, I expect it will be available around the end of this month or the beginning of next, I'll have an exact date probably about a week before. So, yeah! Very exciting! We're trucking along on issue 2, as well as a couple other things I'm working on. Still looking to get Lunatic Fringe picked up by a publisher, so we'll see what happens there.

As always, you can follow me on twitter @BrendanHykes (I have like 4 followers, guys, so now's your chance to say you were following me before I was cool), and my tumblr is BrendanHykes.tumblr.com, I haven't posted too much, but I'm still getting my bearings there.

Anyway, that's all for now, thanks!
