New Page #18. Alan and Bea make it out in the nick of time… for now.

Wow, so many of you voted on which wallpaper to unlock! Over a hundred comments. I think the only times that ever happened is when Bea kissed Ben and Alan punched Nathan. In the end, it was the “Spring iPod Love” wallpaper that won, so I hope you all enjoy it! Download here:  [1024 x 678] [1600 x 1200] [1920 x 1200] Thanks again for voting The Dreamer into the TGT Tournament finals! I’ll leave the wallpapers up for a week.

I forgot to mention something last Friday. Long-time reader Emily set up a forum for The Dreamer. Go have fun with it, chat up a storm, and meet fellow Dreamers! I created a username on there (I’m comic-chic, just like on DeviantART) and I put a first post up in the Welcome folder. Create a log in and drop a comment so we know you’re there. Let’s get this thing started!

And just to repeat, since I didn’t put this in a Friday post yet, I’ll be a guest again at Mid Ohio Con, in Columbus, Ohio, November 6-7th. We had a blast last year, and I hope some of you can make it out this year. And don’t forget that you can see me in Cincinnati in a two weeks at the Cincinnati Comic Expo, one day only, Saturday, September 18th.

VOTE this week to preview next week’s pages!

This was announced last week so I’m free to post it here: I’ll be a guest again at Mid Ohio Con, in Columbus, Ohio, November 6-7th. We had a blast last year, and I hope some of you can make it out this year.

And don’t forget that you can see me in Cincinnati in a few weeks at the Cincinnati Comic Expo, one day only, Saturday, September 18th. I’ve been working on some new prints for this show, and I’ll be a guest on a panel about Digital Comics with some other folks, like my buddy Thom Zahler (Love and Capes).

So I actually made it into the TGT Tournament Finals!! High Five, everyone! Thanks for all the votes! This is the last week for VOTING. The higher I rank, the sooner I’ll be on the program. As for having made it into the finals, which Dreamer Wallpaper do you want unlocked? The one that gets mentioned the most in the comment will be posted on Friday.

New Page 17. Bea’s acting skills and sharp thinking come in handy once again.

So today is finally the big day to announce the 2010 winner of the FanArtPolooza Contest! You all made it tough as always. Mike and I narrowed it down to our ten favorites, but in the end, only one can win! I consulted a few members of the Dream team and the favorite entry over all was…. *drumroll, please*… Continue Reading »

Tuesday night Chuck Moore of Comic Related called me up and we talked about The Dreamer. You can listen to the interview here at Comic Related’s website!

The first five minutes of the podcast consists of Chuck, John and Brant making fun of my braces and remincing about the time Brant ate my donut… on my birthday! The actual interview is about 45 minutes. Enjoy! It was a really good time because Chuck, if you haven’t met him, is one of the most gracious men you’ll find in the comic world. He is always smiling (which is a feat in itself by Sunday night of a comic con!) and he is genuinely excited about comics–from the smallest Indy guy to the biggest of big names, he talks to us all and treats everyone with equal respect and enthusiasm. The night before this interview he binged on the entire Dreamer archives and his new found fandom shines through the interview.

And since it’s a new day, you all can VOTE again in the TGT Tournament. You guys are doing awesome! I’ve managed to maintain the lead, though its a small one. Thanks for all the votes so far!

Come back tomorrow for a new page and the winner of the FanArtPolooza Contest!!
