I had to take a couple of runs through the famed Jacob Javitz Center in Manhattan and I was kind of miffed because some family members who wanted to be there couldn’t for various and UNDERSTANDABLE reasons.
So I used the power of the iPhone 5 to record the entrez-vous process getting into the con… Which according to Alan Harper on Two and a half Men means “enter you.”
Yeah. He’s a dope.
So I recorded Thursday and Saturday of the Con to show the difference in the limits of mass capacity in fire codes.
And the occasional celebs and unintentional butt shots.
I tell you this, girl dressing up in cosplay are a world different than they were in the nineties.
I’ve been kind of bouncing around for awhile. Doing some great projects here and there and I don’t really see that stopping soon. Many people have asked me about my cosmic meanderings from working on Green Lantern Corps to Smallville (where I got to set the designs for the Smallville Batman and NightWing …. And boy did fanboys become annoying about the NightWing thing…lol) to Valiant’s BLOODSHOT#0 to drawing Katana for DC’s Villain month as well as pencilling and inking most of Katana issue 9.
During that time,I had been pretty split in my focus because the main thing was accomplishing my dream of finally not just owing my own transmedia company, but finally getting it it’s own website…a place to finally have a home for housing some IP’s I’ve been putting together since I was 17.
And now that is finally accomplished. More on that on my next blog.
I have been in talks with Valiant and I’m looking to settle in a bit. As long as Valiant will throw work at me, I’ll keep slinging the art. They have a great scheduling system, and great characters…. ingredients to make a great cake, let me tell you. I will finally get time to do the work I’ve wanted to do, and not the type of work where I have to rush and hurt my work (and potentially myself) to make crazy deadlines. I think I’ve come to the point where although I can’t say it won’t happen again, I’m getting too old to be doing these all-nighters and working all day, everyday, and weekends.
I have to be smarter nowadays.
I need to love myself more.
There’s great things that are in the works that will be primed to explode if I plan everything right and I really take care of myself.
So these will be the next following years of ME.
I’ve been back logged a bit so I have a ton to blog about. So I hope you’ll stick around while I plot to make some history. 🙂
I will be working on some Archer and Armstrong for Valiant. And I’m sure they have bigger things planned for me and I’ll post those plans and art when it’s primed to go. Stick around, guys. !!
ChrisCross will be at NYCOMICCON! I’m talking about me in third person again.
I will be there signing with the guys at Valiant Entertainment for my stint on BLOODSHOT 0 and most likely some future work that I’m partaking as I type this. There is much to talk about and a lot to catch up on and i will endeavor to keep up the pace in creating these posts.
If you’d like to catch me at the Con, the booth number for Valiant is Booth #2028 inside the Javitz Center in Midtown Manhattan – and they’re bringing along a boatload of exclusive giveaways, all-new convention-only items, and superstar talent to celebrate their biggest NYCC ever!!
Okay… So thats not my voice and i ripped that. But i could have said it….:)
My schedule for the Con are as follows:
Thursday October 10 7 pm
Friday October 11 12pm
Saturday October 12 1pm signing 4pm panel

I hope to see you guys there because i will be making the rounds letting people know about my company website going live on SATURDAY. the company is named ETERNAL KICK and it will be out there for people to see FINALLY!
And guaranteed Archer will be poking me trying to annoy me.
