The NYCC Runs February 6th, 7th & 8th, 2009!

  Dave Gordon... Says that he doesn't have a table for the upcoming NYCC event, but he, (left in photo), and writing partner Mark Derwin (right in photo), will be "hitting the floor with both barrels loaded in promotion of 'Being Gordy', their upcoming Graphic Novel!

I 'met' Dave via Facebook where Dave has a 'Being Gordy' group page. Between that group page and their own web site, they are averaging 500 hits a week, and 50-70 entries per week in their caption-writing contest on Facebook. 

Dave just told me yesterday that he was "lucky enough to meet Greg Adams on Facebook some time ago. He specializes as an inker of comics, and has worked on everything from Superman to Spiderman. Recently, he did me the honor of inking a Being Gordy promo piece that is this week's main on on the BG site, in promotion of NY Comic Con".   That promo piece is shown above. Be sure to check out its' incorporation into Dave & Mark's special NYCC 2009 promo literature at the Con!

Dave says the "new preview edition to the forthcoming graphic novel is hot off the press. Anyone interested just has to track us down on the convention floor".

Additionally Dave says "We'll be uploading photos of the event shortly after the weekend is over".

For those that can't make it to the NYCC 2009, or don't see Dave or Mark at the con, here are two websites to check out:

Oh... and what exactly is 'Being Gordy'? Well Dave puts it this way:  "Think 'sitcom-as-graphic-novel'... that’s what you’ll get from Being Gordy".  Dave also says 'Being Gordy' the graphic novel will be landing on the shelf in your nearest bookstore in 2010.
