Mark Texeira At The National! This week I blogged about the fact that Michael Golden will be attending the National ComicCon November 14th thru 16th, 2008 in NYC. Now word comes that an additional Guest Artist attending this Con is Mark Texeiera! Mark "Tex" Texeira is currently the penciler on Marvel Comics' "MoonKnight" series and is certainly known worldwide for his Ghost Rider work. Matter of fact that series has been my personal favorite work of his until I saw his Wonder Woman artwork below, (LOL)!
Tex is equally lauded for his illustrative style that always adds a bit of “New York know-how” to any project--painting or interiors-- that he tackles. His career has spanned work in not only comics, but in film, magazine publishing, album covers and more. Tina and I have been to the National before, where we picked up several long boxes of comics to ship back to SoCal. (Use the FedEx in the same building if you also do that!) Mark Texeiera will be on hand all days of The National, running November 14-16th 2008 at the Penn Plaza Pavilion in Manhattan, along with other comics creators including Carmine Infantino, Dick Ayers, Herb Trimpe, Irwin Hasen, Michael Golden, Jim Salicrup, Jim Shooter, Jim Steranko, John Romita Sr., Larry Hama, Peter David, Roy Thomas, Russ Heath, and Walt Simonson among others. If you are near Manhattan, and have any one of the three days open in your calendar, you might want to check out Mark Texeira at the National (as well as the other artists mentioned above)!For those of you that are new to our blog, we also have an ongoing 'Comic Con and Pop Culture Show' ourselves here at "Make It So Marketing Inc.", what with our daily blog posts and new listings of items for sale in our online store!
