What would be an interesting post title???

Wizard World Philly was last weekend. If that is the last Philly show, as some are speculating, I am glad that I was a part of it. This was by far the most successful convention I have exhibited at. The WW Philly exclusives were a hit. I still have some copies left and have made them available through our web site store. On top of all that, I met some other great creators and tons of cool fans. It is greatly appreciated that so many people came over and checked out the book and talked for a while. I am really looking forward to Wizard's Chicago Comic Con in August to see more of you.

I have a smaller, local show in a few weeks: Mid Summers Expo in Detroit. I am not sure what to expect, but it will be nice to see some of the Michigan folk supporting their local creators.

Other than that, there isn't much to report on. New Baby Productions is sort of at a crossroads in determining what to do next. A follow-up to Elemental Fources is planned as well as a trade version of the original series. But I would really like to bring in some partners before too much money is spent and my wife breaks my neck. I'm also looking at licensing as a way to grow the company, which is creating all kinds of idea$ in my head.

Until next time, take it easy.

Philly in One Week

I apologize for the lack of updates. I haven't had a lot of time to post updates.

Last week, my wife and I headed to Las Vegas for the Licensing International Expo. In an attempt to reach more potential readers, I thought it would be a good idea to see if we could acquire any licenses for some well-known proerties from movies, television, video games, and books that would make good comic book series for New Baby Productions.

The Expo was a little overwhelming and was certainly bigger than I had expected. There was quite a lot gearded towards children's properties. It's too bad I do not want to make comics for kids. I would have a lot of options. No licensing deals were made, but I did come away with a few ideas that I have been pursuing.

The big news is that Wizard World Philly is one week away! I have never been to this particular show. I did go to the Chicago show a couple of years ago, so I am excited to be exhibiting at a Wizard event. I can't wait to meet some more creators and fans. I would really like to start collaborating with some of the other indie publishers out there to gain some reputation for New Baby Productions.

If you are at the show, stop by booth #124 and say hi. If you say that you read this blog, maybe I'll give you a free comic.
