Emerald City Comic Con, March 4-6

(Reposted from deviantArt: http://mleiv.deviantart.com/journal/38578991/)

I do not have a table and I am only signed up to wander the floors on Saturday due to my limited tolerance for crowds. However, it sounds like a lot of people are going and I was wondering if we wanted to do something social one evening? Especially for the out-of-towners, might be nice to have dinner or drinks rather than huddle in your hotel room (I say huddle, because getting out and exploring the city implies that it is not rainy, windy, and supremely cold, which is unlikely, sorry).

I should make the disclaimer that I hate social gatherings and I have in fact ended social lunches with the entire table rushing en masse out of the room to get away from me and my depressing and alienating conversation topics. So if I say nothing all night, that is a good social event in my book. I would, however, be happy to supply free comic books/stickers/whatever other print goods are desired to anyone who came. Can I bribe people to be my friend? Ha.

I am busy Friday night and Saturday early evening (Browncoats Movie!), but any other time, weigh in via comments below. Tap House and Gordon Biersch are near the convention hall and have adequate liquor and desserts. There's also the requisite million Starbucks in a one block radius, if we are feeling poor and sober. I can spike my own coffee, after all.

I've always been the type to watch my Serenity obsessively at home, alone, y'know, like River would. Mumbling to myself and sorting through unlabelled cans of food. :P

But when the Seattle Browncoats asked for a local design for the Can't Stop The Serenity charity screening this summer, I just had to draw this. It was screaming to be made.

And I did it all with a mouse. Because my tablet wasn't handy. And then it took all night and I am feeling just a teensy bit punchy from the fact that I haven't slept. :P

Oh, and there was a two-color limitation. I wanted to do it orange and gray-green (like, the Emerald City, y'know?), but the red was more essential to the Serenity sun, so I had to throw out the green.
