TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3784 -    I was in contact with Allen Bellman yesterday via e-mail, and he was telling me that he has 8 comic cons that he is scheduled to attend this year!

Well...  I just had to post a blog on this fact, as I'm sure you or your friends would love to meet him in person.  BTW... Allen will be celebrating his 89th birthday in June of this year!

First, here's a link to the blogs that I have already mentioned him in.

Second, here's the list of comic cons Allen will be at in 2013:

Feb. 14th       VisionCon  Springfield, Mo

March 15th     Mega-Con Orlando Florida
 
March 30th     Asbury Park Comic Con     Asbury Park N.J.
 
May 24th        Alabama Phoenix Festival  Birmingham AL

May 31st         Denver Comic Con   Denver CO

July 4th           Florida Super Con Miami FL

Oct 12th          Grand Rapids Comic-Con Grand Rapids MI

Nov 1st            Rhode Island  Comic Con   Providence RI

I'm hoping that YOU will be able to see Allen at one of these comic cons that he is scheduled to attend. You can find more on each con by clicking on the links provided above.

For more on Allen, you can check out his web site at AllenBellman.com, and even order a commission from him, if you can't see him in person!

Oh, and one last thing... Here's a checklist of just some of Allen's credited artwork during his comic book creating period!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3783 -    Yesterday, I and 11 other Department Heads of the San Diego Comic Fest, met in San Diego for the first planning meeting for the 2013 San Diego Comic Fest, (SDCF)!

Here are just some of the topics that were discussed at the meeting that I can share with you:

01) Volunteer positions are available!  See this link to the page on the web site for more info.

02) The San Diego Comic Fest is filling out the paperwork to become a 501C3 charitable trust. More on that in the months to follow.

03) Why you should stay at the hotel?  There will be packages for this year's Comic Fest. The SDCF will showcase those in the months to follow.

04) Brown Paper Tickets will continue to be our payment method.  This is the link to the registration page

05) I brought up the fact that there were several people that wanted to buy single day memberships online before the 2012 SDCF took place.  It was agreed that single day memberships for the 2013 SDCFwill be sold only at the door, if we have not sold out the 3 day memberships, and would be subject to availabilty.

 

06) Dealer tables are $250 each, with 2 memberships included.

07) Larry Niven is the 'Special Guest of Honor' for the 2013 SDCF.

08) Look for an upcoming 'British Invasion' at the 2013 SDCF.

09) San Diego State University Library has started uploading videos filmed at the 2012 SDCF at their YouTube site.

10) This year's Saturday Night festivities will include a 'Masked Ball' with dancing!

11) The Art Show will be a true 'show', not just an exhibit, with an auction as well.

12) Cafe Frankenstein will have a new theme... 'The Draco Tavern'.

 Whew!   Well that's it for this update report from me!

Besides the links shown above, here are a few more for you to check out:

A)  The Facebook Fan Page for the San Diego Comic Fest.

B)  The web site for the San Diego Comic Fest.

 So... JJ Abrams To Take On Star Wars Film Franchise?

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3782 -    Yesterday, my wife, Tina LoSasso, brought to my attention the news that hit earlier that day.

The news that J.J. Abrams has been named as the Director for the upcoming Star Wars VII, which is to be released in the year 2015.

So I re-posted her link from her Facebook Fan Page, Make It So Marketing, to my own Facebook Fan Page.

Tina asked me if I was going to blog on this news... But I kind of paused to think about it, as I had already blogged yesterday morning.

Yet, after thinking about this announcement, I'm kind of excited to see what he can do for Star Wars, especially after seeing the reboot Star Trek film that he directed back in 2009... Whew, has it been that long ago?!

Add to that, the fact that newest Star Trek film is slated to appear at theaters on May 17th of this year.  Titled:  Star Trek Into Darkness, I haven't blogged about that film yet, but will probably see it on the Big Screen and review blog it here.

I'm kind of interested in what JJ does with the Star Wars film franchise... And look forward hopefully to seeing him at this year's San Diego Comic Con International.

How about you?   You can post your thoughts at my Facebook Fan Page, Michael D Hamersky On Comics, where this blog will be posted!

 

~ Michae!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3781 -    Last year at this time, I shared a special photo album with you here that I had started over at my Facebook Fan Page, Michael D Hamersky On Comics.

The title of the special photo album was:  'At The Drawing Board...' where I presented a photo of the cartoonist / artist, where I had found it, and a link to the special photo album.

At that time, on January 26th of 2012, in blog #3592, I had just started the photo album the week before, and mentioned that I had room for 200 photos.  

Well, as of this morning I have 175 total photos in this special album.  So there's still room for 25 more of you to be in it!

Just message me at my Facebook Fan Page, as to where you can send me a link to your photo to be added.

Oh, and be sure to check out the 175 already pictured that were... At The Drawing Board!

(Pictured above, L-R:  L.D. Warren, Jules Feiffer, and Allen Bellman.)

Well, as you can see by the above two photos posted in this blog, Ringo Starr (of The Beatles), and Adam (Batman) West and Yvonne (Batgirl) Craig did!

Plus when checking out the link to the photo album, you'll see that the following also read comics / comic books:

Elizabeth Montgomery, Elvis Presley, Laurel & Hardy, The Three Stooges, Peter Cushing, Jorge Garcia, roy Rogers, Kirk Alyn, Humphrey Bogart, Dr. Frederic Wertham, Elizabeth Taylor, Muhammed Ali, William Shatner & Leonard Nimoy, Boris Karloff, Fishbone, Jimi Hendrix, Madonna, Paul McCartney,  Holly Golightly with Alicia Rio and Kimberly Kupps, Kirk Hammett, Joan Crawford, John Lennon, Jack Nicholson, Christopher Reeve, the Monkees, Paul Levitz, and Audrie Hepburn... Just to name a few that are pictured!

Quite an amazing amount of people read comics / comic books!
