I went to the MSG show last week and had the pleasure of seeing George again! and as an extra bonus this time I got to meet Mrs. Perez and talk to the woman behind all the famous (infamous?) shirts (Carol Flynn); It was a real pleasure chatting with both of them! And to top it all off I got a wonderful Green Arrow headshot from George! It was a hard decision to pick the subject of the sketch. I had gotten quite a few sketches from George but they were all women so this time I decided to get a male and I wanted it to be someone who would be very distinctive as a headshot and good old Ollie just seemed to fit the bill! I love it!

Later on in the show George was walking around the dealer's room; He had stopped by a table that was selling all kinds of comic book props (i.e. Captain America's Shield, Wolverine's Claws). I took a couple of pictures of George with Cap's Shield; I figured you might be interested in seeing them so I attached them in this e-mail. I think a lot of fans would be interested in seeing their favorite artist with one of the most famous comic symbols ever! I E-mailed George with the pics so he can see them and asked if he would mind if I forwarded them onto you for the site and he said that it was no problem and that the fans should really enjoy them. I've also included a scan of the sketch I got in case you wanted to post that as well.
