Who are your favorite Playboy cartoonists, JB?•• Sneyd, Cole, and above all Sokol. I'd pay real money to get a Sokol original.

I've got two new pieces. I ordered the first two issues of The Possum comic book from Blair Kitchen's website and they came in the mail today, and he included these two sketches:
(For some reason, this one came out a little bit blurrier than I thought it would when I shrunk the image so I could post it)

On the first picture, I'm guessing he either saw some of my posts
during the whole Michael Golden debacle (I posted at 2 other boards
besides this one under my real name) and recognized the name, or its
just a coincidence.
(There's also an illo of the Possum on the packaging, and he also added a handwritten note explaining he added a free copy of his brother's comic with a picture of the Possum's head drawn on it, but I haven't decided if I'm going to bother scanning those or not)

Great looking Tony Daniel Batman above! So many artist's get these characters..it's amazing at times to see that some just do not.

I haven't figured out which is giving me trouble, my scanner or my computer. But it has been slowing down the process of showing off all the stuff I bought in Chicago.
I contacted Whilce Portacio's wife, Joann, a few weeks before the con to see if he would do a piece for me at the show. She was super nice to work with and this is what I ended up getting.
He told me he was very excited about doing the piece because he hadn't drawn Storm since he left the X-Men.

ME: Doug Sneyd sells originals here:

I haven't seen a Sokol on Ebay myself -- but I've heard they have shown up on the site. My grail is a Cole -- but I do understand wanting to own a Sokol!...

I'm about to head off to work, and I just got my scanner back up and running. Here is my J. Scott Campbell sketch I procured at Wizard World Chicago.
