C2E2 (Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo is BACK!

The 3^rd Annual C2E2 (Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo) has returned to McCormick Place located at 2301 S. Lake Shore Drive from April 13-15th 2012. 

C2E2 is touted as Chicago's Pop Culture Event, there is something for everyone from hardcore fans of comic books to entertainment enthusiasts.  This Chicago comic con (comic convention) is in its 3rd year and the buzz for it continues to grow.  

This is a place where serious collectors can find rare comic books and graphic novels, in addition those new to the industry can browse and learn a great deal, from how to break into the comic book industry as an illustrator or writer.  Of course, those who love entertainment will not have a difficult time spotting their favorite actor/actress from a t.v. show or movie. You'll be surprised who you'll find on the itinerary.  I would recommend going to the C2E2 website and click on My Show Planner where you can see what artists will attend as well as, the different panels and events and create an agenda for yourself.  Some events include:

1. Voltron: Form Blazing Comics Panel on Saturday and Sunday a panel demonstration for kids on creating a cartoon

  

2. A C2E2 Charity Art Auction

3. A big hit for families is C2E2 Kids’ Day on Sunday April 15.

4. Speed Dating (that should be interesting.

There will be a ton of special guests, just to name a few include- Anthony Daniels/Star Wars, Sean Astin/The Lord Of The Rings, Chad Michael Murray/One Tree Hill, John Barrowman/Doctor Who, John Cusack/The Raven, Maggie Q/Nikita and many others

Come and meet the creators and purchase art from amazing talent such as Gail Simone/Wonder Woman, Axel Alonso/Marvel Editor in Chief, Joe Kubert/The Kubert School, Joe Quesada/Marvel, Brandon Thomas/Dynamite, Ryan Benjamin/Batman Beyond, Alvin Lee/Street Fighter, Mshindo Kuumba I., Shawn Alleyne/Pyroglyphics Studios and many more. 

If you’re looking for a great time with more eye candy and visual treats you’ve seen in awhile, come out to C2E2 and enjoy yourself.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME...

...since the last time I've dropped anything..
let's see..
on the personal my wife and I have finally taken care of some real estate business. It was a pain to say the least but hopefully will be worth the agony...
...wifey has a new gig
..my son is growing and expanding his knowledge, he will soon be back in a school that nurtures him in the manner he needs..

On the Creative..
...my site www.360BEYOND.com is finally launched! There are some aspects I need to implement but the site is here!
Go check for it, www.360BEYOND.com. Let me know what you think...buy some services etc (hint)
...I'm still working on 360BEYOND in-house projects, my sci-fi novel to be published through NUBIAN7Publishing, will have some great artwork from the likes of MDGEIST(the ILLPEN), MSHINDO I (Natural Mystic), STANDINGO (the Great) and others. I've to decide if it will be a collection within the novel or separate book (this publishing thing ain't cheap). Anyway, that's all for now.

in parting...

I CAN'T TEACH MY SON TO CHASE HIS DREAMS...IF I DON'T GO FOR MINE!

PEACE!
