2009 Appearances
Wednesday, November 19, 2008 - 11:58 PM
The invites and planning for 2009 appearances have started coming in, so I thought I'd share some of the Sheldon-related events for the coming year.
Katsucon has invited myself and the other Halfpixel cartoonists out for their Virginia show on Feb. 13-15. I've never done a "manga"-themed show before, so I'm really curious to see how it's gonna go.
Emerald City Comicon, one of my favorite shows in all of North America, has invited the Halfpixel cartoonists back up to their (increasingly) big show, April 4-5 in Seattle. Please make plans to come if you're in travel distance -- it's a great, great show.
Finally, I've gotten word that San Diego Comic-Con has assigned Halfpixel an infinitely better booth locale for that massive, massive show. Apparently we're right across from Peanuts -- which would make my 9-year old self pretty excited. My current self, too, truth be told.
Finally, I should mention that my wife and I have been invited down to perform at the South Beach Comedy Festival in Florida, Jan. 21-24. This isn't Sheldon-related (though I'd love you to come out and see the show) -- but I'm mentioning it early as I'd love to arrange a book-signing or a Sheldonista-focused coffee meet-up while I'm there. E-mail or post below with any suggestions to that end! Thanks!

Watch out for those Anime/Manga cons. I did a caricature gig there and it did not go well. But great people watching. Keep your eyes open for the moody angst ridden vampires.

I would totally go to an England event! Are you kidding? After living there for two years, I miss England a lot.
I'd just need to be invited out to something to make it happen.

Pssst. Caaaanaaaadaaaa.
My brother wants to invite Halfpixel for a lecture at his uni to get Dave Kellet up here. Canada in 2010! We'll have the Olympics, too.

Oh man, I wish I was going to Katsucon, but it's a bit too soon for me and my wallet. Bcartooned is right though, but only for the really hardcore fans who look at a comic and think "You're not from an Asian country. It's not comics." A great one for Halfpixel to think about, however, is Connecticon. They try to highlight webcomics as much as they can, and I believe that they are much cheaper compared to other conventions. It's also one that my friends go to a lot, as it's a very good convention with great attendees and staff.

South Beach Comedy Festival? Whats all this about? I do Improv here in Atlanta, and we're always up for learning about new festivals and such.

Is anyone from Halfpixel thinking of doing SPX this year?
