A big Thanks to Flavio to inform me about the appearance of Jim Starlin in Paris today. I went and got a GREAT sketch ( as well as a nice signed poster) which I will try to show you all as soon as possible. Mr Starlin was very nice and made a sketch to everybody. The shop, Librairie Déesse, has some great stuff, and the owner is a really nice guy. I spoke with quite a few guys while we were waiting (3 and a half hours), and, big surprise, one of them met JB and told me what a great guy he is.
All in all, a good day!
F.

Bonjour Fabrice !
J'étais également présent samedi ! J'ai eu la chance de
rencontrer JB dans la même boutique en 1993 pour une
séance de dédicaces et de sketchs, je lui ai demandé de faire
mon portrait et il immédiatement accepté !
Voici mon sketch de Jim Starlin.

I've always been a fan of Jim Starlin. His work from that period always got my creative juices flowing. I'd spend hours recreating his artwork on big rolls of wallpaper backing paper with my ballpoints and felt tip pens. Must have been somewhere between 10 and 12 years old at the time... ah, good memories!

Does anyone happen to know why Starlin's first Warlock series is not reprinted in a single volume? I know it's in a couple of series reprints but not an Essentials or Masterworks or any of the other collected formats. And the later ones --Infinity Quest Gems Wars etc are.

Yes, agreed, very reminiscent of the Warlock with one version seeing the death of the other.

Le mot “portrait” - a-t-il la même signification qu'en anglais? Est-ce que JB a fait un dessin de vous? Si oui, est-ce vous avez toujours le portrait et est-ce que vous le téléchargeriez au forum? Désolé si je vous ai compris mal, mon français est beaucoup moins que parfait.
(Translation so as not to be rude: Bruno said JB had done a "portrait" sketch for him years ago and I was asking if he could upload it.)

Hello Bruno,
Where were you ? I spoke with a few people during the wait, and, as usual, nobody asked any names, so I don't know who I spoke with. I got poster #103 of #150, so I was the 47th waiting.
I'll post my sketch as soon as possible.
