PLEASE NOTE CHANGES!!

Hey all,

A couple of revisions have been made to the NYCC pre-order list that I had recently posted. First, Gerry Acerno and Amy Fletcher have been added to the list. Gerry is a very accomplished illustrator and his artwork can be viewed at www.comicarthouse.com. Amy is a Broadsword Comics model and is also a fantasy artist. I suggest both of these artists heavily for your commissions!

Secondly, Pat Carlucci will not be attending NYCC for health reasons. He will not be accepting commissions for the time being and we certainly we him and his wife, Dawn, all the best during this time.

Peace,
Bob

Andy Wiernicki passes away...

I waited for the correct words to come to express the sorrow I feel in my heart over the loss of Andrew Wiernicki last week. I wanted to be able to write eloquently, to think clearly, and most importantly, to do justice to this great man. I hope it works.

I met Andrew Wiernicki at NYCC 2007 and I immediately liked him. He was well spoken and extremely serene in the middle of the madhouse that surrounded him. He had a firm handshake that I always believe is the mark of an honest, hardworking man. His sculptures were beautiful and obviously the work of a man who loved his craft, however, I was more impressed with him than his work.

We chatted for a short while with questions about representation coming up of course. Bob Almond has referred him to us and he was curious as to how things worked. After all the info, Andy decided he would come aboard. I was thrilled. I've always tried to get the best artists possible for the sites but I also wanted to get the best possible human beings as well. I felt as though I had hit the lottery.

When I found out Andy was sick, I was a bit upset. Not for the site or any of that BS. I just thought the world was a better place with Andy in it. I still do. I miss you Andy. Godspeed my friend.

Complete Star Trek: The Last Generation #1 artwork added

We have added over 40 pages of new art to Bob Almond's section including the complete issue of pages from Star Trek: The Last Generation #1 (blueline inks over Gordon Purcell). Also added is a cover of Danger's Dozen with Sal Velluto and 24 pages from a Danger's Dozen story by John Royal.

Dave Simons returns to comics!

ARMY OF DARKNESS: ASH'S CHRISTMAS HORROR
"It's a blunderful life" for everyone's favorite big chinned Chosen One
Dynamite presents their first ever Christmas Special... this time with a twist as we send Ash on a Christmas adventure the likes of which the world has never seen! Will Evil Ash destroy Christmas? Can Good Ash stop Evil Ash from ruining Christmas? Is there really a Santa? Find it all out this December in a 40 page one-shot by writer James Kuhoric and classic Marvel artist Dave Simons!
Everyone loves the holidays, right? Wrong! If you've ever worked S-Mart retail in December, you know it's special hell filled with something worse than Deadites.... dumbass holiday shoppers. And when the Necronomicon gets a hold of some classic holiday entertainment, it send Ash through a voyage of twisted Christmas visions that beat him senseless and initiate something deeper in Ash. "It's a blunderful life" for everyone's favorite big chinned Chosen One and this year he's going to face something tougher than Deadite Santas and zombie elves. He'll find a piece of his soul that was swallowed long ago..
Quote Jim Kuhoric: About the chance to work on AoD, artist Dave Simons exclaimed, "When Nicky first sent me a box o' comics to familiarize me with the Dynamite line, in amongst the Red Sonjas and Lone Rangers (great book, by the way) was Army of Darkness. I thought that AoD would be a fun book to work on and particularly suited to me with my experience in both horror (Tomb of Dracula, Ghost Rider) and humor (The Real Ghostbusters and many other animated shows). Little did I know I'd end up working on the AoD Holiday Special! This marks my return to print after several years of working in animation and I couldn't have picked a more appropriate project."
Dave's a class act, any way you gut it, and with Ash, you don't know where it's being "gut" or "cut". It's a different turkey jerker each and every time. In all seriousness, we were exctatic to work with an artist with a pedigree's as impressive as Dave. This is the first person we're putting together with him, but we are talking more down the line. Fingers crossed! Check it out, because it's the return of Dave to comics, but also because he's a great artist.
ARMY OF DARKNESS: ASH'S CHRISTMAS HORROR (ONE SHOT) James Kuhoric (w), Dave Simons (a) Covers: Dave Simons
DIAMOND ORDER CODE: OCT084041
ALSO AVAILABLE: ARMY OF DARKNESS: ASH'S CHRISTMAS HORROR (ONE SHOT) FOIL EDITION

Joseph Lee Gallery showing!!

Joseph Lee will have artwork on display for "Family Guy C.R.A.P. (A Collection of Rare Art Pieces)" on October 18, 2008 from 7-11 PM at La Luz de Jesus Gallery in L.A. Of course, you could have gotten all that information just from looking at the fancy placard above, but I love repeating myself. If you are in LA, say hey to Joseph for us and tell him how super cool he is.

http://www.comicarthouse.com/josephlee.html

30% off Mark McKenna's Countdown pages!

Apparently this is a shared psychosis! Mark has just authorized a 30% off the listed price on all his remaining Countdown pages. Think that's good? HA! The 2 - double page spreads are 40% off. This artwork is AWESOME! Grab some before they are gone baby gone.

http://www.comicarthouse.com/mckennacd.html

25% off ATOMIC ROBO VOL. 1 PAGES!!

Has Wegener lost his freakin' mind?!? Apparently so, as he just told me to offer up all available pages from Vol. 1 of the Eisner nominated ATOMIC ROBO for the rather sweet 25 % off the prices listed on the site. To make this EVEN BETTER, if you buy multiple (like 5) pages, Scott will discount you even further.

There are some super sweet pages left, so HURRY and grab them before they go (or Scott comes to his bloody senses).

Billy Tan in da HOUSE!!

Billy Tan knocked once, knocked twice, then just busted on in. Billy Tan is now officially in the HOUSE! He will be offering some of the sweetest commission creations that your devious minds can think of. Think you can stump the master? Bring it on!

Mid Ohio Con!

Kim and I will be heading off to Mid Ohio Con this weekend and to hang out with Bob's daughter, Alyssa! So, if you wanted to e-mail us, we won't be near a computer from Friday until Monday night. That being said, we'd never leave the fort unmanned and our faithful hanging!

For those days, please e-mail our wing-man, Erick Korpi at erick@serendipityartsales.net. Erick will be able to hook you up with all the cool artwork and commissions that you've been dreaming of in our absence.

Joseph Lee Gallery updates

Family Guy Assistant Director Joseph Lee is a comic book fan. Like most of us, he digs him some Star Wars action too (as if Blue Harvest wasn't a big enough hint).

Joseph's got some mad art skills to back up that bad ass title. The man can throw down with the best of them. While he's not accepting commissions at the moment, he is sharing some of his favorite personal work.

HIT THE LINK! http://www.comicarthouse.com/josephlee.html

Kevin West color commission sale!!

That's right SALE. Kevin's offering up his super-sweet 8.5 x 11 color commissions (regularly priced at $110) for only $90 plus shipping. That saves you $20 so you can buy the Iron Man DVD that just came out.

8.5 x 11 just ain't cutting it? Howzabout a HUGE 11 x 17 color commission? Regularly $160, NOW $140. Same $20 savings, still get the Iron Man DVD (not from us, use your savings) AND you look like the true art connoisseur that you truly are.

So not only do you get a killer piece of artwork to show off to your friendsand look extremely cultured, you can entertain them too! Popcorn's on you though.

Hit the link!! http://www.comicarthouse.com/west.html

Pop Mhan in da HOUSE!

Pop Mhan has officially kicked in the front door of Comic Art House and is bringing the pain. Jedi style. Look for updates from Pop by the end of this week. Commissions probably won't happen until the new year, but TRUST US we have plenty of art goodness to satisfy that hunger like Snickers.
