Woah!!  A Tom Luth Panel!  That would be far out!  I think Tom is the most unheralded colorist around.  He does fabulous work!!  And he's one of the guys who has made the transission from coloring the old fashion way to doing it digitally!  Yes, a Tom Luth panel would be cool!  

Oh, and on the "free" King Kong shirt.  I got one too, but it's not really free.  It's more like a King Kong shirt in exchange for receiving more junk mail for a couple years.  You see, to get the shirt you had sign up for a credit card.  Now as I told Larry and anyone else who signed up:  When you get your card, cut it in half and throw it away.  And when you get the upteen thousand pieces of junk mail telling you all about the glories and wonders of the card, just throw them away.  Don't even open them.

    Steve, Kaytee, Dougie, Dana, Eric, Scott, and one day folks like Richard and
    Josh. How was the Con for you? 
  I spent most of the time at the Art Show-- I was "staff" this year... got a special edition Con t-shirt as "payment", and because we were right next to the "freebee" table, got a few goodies there as well (two t-shirts, including the coveted(?) "Komic-Kong" one, a couple of hats, some gew-gaws like keychains and bone-shaped pens, etc). I had two tables at the show with my beadwork.

  I did go to the Sergio panels, and to a "meeting" of the UY Dojo at Stan's booth... got the latest works by Sergio and Stan (except for the Ramones' collection...), and checked in at Sergio's booth a few times to say "Hola!". I wasn't up to much walking (despite popping Motrin like M&Ms), and the dealers' "room" was stuffy and hard to navigate anyway. My two rug wolverines pretty much disappeared once we got to the Con every day-- except to get the keys so they could get their lunches and stow some of their swag. They objected to having to get up early enough to get there in time for parking under the convention center (we left home about 6:30 every day), but were glad enough to have the car that close. 

  I got to talk with Tom briefly on Sunday-- he is considering having a panel in the Art Show next year, and hopefully, a table in Artists' Alley.
