The previous from Darwyn Cooke's version of the Hunter, the next is from his version of The Outfit.

Next up was Faith Erin Hicks, who does some small press books, but had a story in Marvel's Girl Comics, issue 2 i think.

Now, the blast from the past: Sandy Carruthers who was the first penciller of Malibu's Men In Black comic, from 1980 (?):

Lastly, two from an artist i discovered recently, Caanan Grall, originally from Australia, now living here in NS.  He does a lot of online comics, but had a book published through DC's Zuda imprint, Celadore, a really fun book.

and, a commission from Caanan i had arranged prior to the show ( by 1 day ), something to my Marvel Team-up mini theme: 

Spider-man and Slapstick versus Venom.

Michael says "Hal-Con in Halifax,  Nova Scotia is still going on today, but i only went yesterday.  The only comic people due to be there were Mike Golden and Joe Jusko, but they "cancelled" for reasons I am still unsure of.  Luckily, my local comic shop Strange Adventures brought in some local guys to do some sketches, plus i came across a name from the past that was at a small table by himself."

I am glad that I did not attend.  It would have been disappointing.  They were like the two most "famous" comic book artists invited at the show, weren't they?
