Dean Zachary Signing
0My friend Dean Zachary will be signing copies of the 2010 DCU Halloween Special from Noon to 3pm on Saturday, October 30 at Comics & Collectibles in Memphis. Dean penciled the Wonder Woman story featured in this year’s Halloween Special. Be sure to stop by his signing if you are going to be in the Memphis area.

Back from the Desert
0Lin and I have returned from our trip to Phoenix Comicon, and we are slowly recuperating from our speed-tourist trek through Arizona and Utah.
The con was a blast (and I will have more posts about it soon), but the highlight of the con was Lin proposing at the art auction. Lin was asked to emcee the event, and Lin being Lin decided to host the event as Beetlejuice. At the end of the auction, Lin asked me to join him upfront and proposed!

And I said, “Yes”.
We haven’t set a date yet, but it will be either Spring or Fall 2011.
