I saw lil'rhino's sketch in the other thread and was wondering if anyone else has collected Legion convention sketches over the years? I love collecting sketches whenever possible but don't have any Legion ones. I was at San Diego Comic-Con last year and heard Chris Sprouse was supposed to be there but I couldn't find him. I would love to meet and get a sketch from Olivier Coipel. I might go to Germany this year, maybe I'll try for France?!? Bautista would be cool too if he attends any cons that I could get to...

I would love to have a convention sketch or two, but I'm too shy to approach an artist to ask for one... frown

But I do know that others here have 'em, so post 'em and let's see 'em! cool

I've got three from Jeff Moy (Lyle, XS, and Spark) and a Mon-El from someone who didn't work on a Legion work. Not bad, though.

One of my buddies has a Reverse Flash sketch by Geoff Johns, who was more than happy to do a little drawing at a convention rather than talk about his writing all day.

What cons are people thinking about hitting up this year? I'll probably go to WonderCon in San Francisco. There's a couple of good guests confirmed so far - I will try as hard as I can to get an Adam Hughes Legion sketch (remember Legionnaires 13, 14, and like 16?) and maybe Darwin Cooke would be willing to serve up some Legion goodness...

I might also check out WizardWorld LA and will probably head down for San Diego again.

Have you got a scanner? smile

I've got four, three that I commissioned and one that I won at the Legion dinner in Chicago the year I did my Star Boy costume. I've got a Cosmic Boy by Jeff Moy, Apparition by Rich Gulick, Triad by Phil Moy (the quick sketch on hotel stationery I won) and this Mysa by Jon Watkins-Chow.

It's the only one I have scanned in, and they're all in frames now, so I don't think I'll be scanning the others. Sorry.

I don't think I'm familiar with Jon Watkins-Chow's work, but that's a very lovely Mysa.

He did an independent book several years ago called "Talismen." It went up to about 4 or 5 issues. He formed a small company called Blink Comics, but that lasted all of issues 4 and 5. I liked his style, but some inkers just butchered him.

Thanks for the info, Eric!

I'll do a net search for that title a little later... maybe I can even dig up some issues somewhere...

John W-C has some pretty cool work and he does amazing stuff with markers. I remember seeing him stuff at conventions a few years ago and wanting (but not being able to afford) his sketches:

Supposedly he's pretty good, although I've never actually seen the pic. Good enough to have his own book I guess, but probably not as good as his writing (Big time Geoff Johns fan here!)

Did you guys buy Teen Titans/Outsider Secret Files? Geoff drew the Kid Flash pin up. It was pretty good.

this is probably the most cool Olivier Coipel piece of artwork, that i have !!! [ and it's not even the real thing, i only have an emailed image of it .... ]

but on, one of his final pages in "THE LEGION" #14 [ his last issue ] he told me he was gonna feature MY name somewhere !!!

he put it going round the logo on CUB's top !!! it didn't actually appear in the printed comic frown !!!

but it was still amazing ....

Cool! I didn't know he had a new web site. He used to be a staple at Motor City Con, but he wasn't there the last few times I've been and my like to his old web site went bad, so I thought he had disappeared from the field. Poking around the web site, I see he's charging a lot more for commissions than he used to, but he does do some really neat work.

Thanks for the update, Mel!

Zut alor! That's awesome Matthew! I wouldn't mind going back to Paris, though Does Olivier speak any English (I've taking a few years of French but its been years now!)?

Well how about a digi-photo then? At least then us greedy graphiphiles will get a chance to see them even if it can't be high resolution.
- just a thought -

Hey thanks, Seymore. Those are great!
I didn't really love Moy's work on the book but his portraiture is marvelous.

Yeah, he did a sketch for me at Mid-Ohio con of some characters I created, and it turned out great. He likes to draw the women, but he doesn't disappoint on the guys.

Those are all very nice!

Rich Gulick's Apparition looks very Adams Hughes-esque to me (which is a good thing!)...
