Okay Okay, so it's almost 3 months late for my B-day, but that's okay, it finally arrived so I went out in the hot weather we're having to get another Plenair Figure to add to my growing collection.
While we're on the subject of Takehito Harada's Work I really want to get the Disgaea 3 for Playstation 3. If I preorder, it comes with a huge amount of extra crap from the RosenQueen Shop. The only hitch is... well I don't own a Ps3. Is that a silly thing to do?

I'm pretty proud of a lot of the stuff I create for them, but unfortunately until just recently I wasn't able to show off any of it. So now that I can show stuff (or at least the stuff that has been released so far) I have put a few of my favorite pieces up in my gallery.

This will help a lot if I can get your input!!!

Also feel free to give your opinion if you have strong feelings about what you like doing on these avatar-based sites.

I'LL PICK 2 PEOPLE OUT OF THE COMMENTER'S AND SEND THEM A FREE PRINT. (and it'll be a big print too). Comment on my journal though so I know you want a free thing from me.

And you may win some free stuff for commenting too!

Yep, it's that time of year, when Seattle is transformed in to a glimmering green city of light and comic-nerdom flows freely for 2 days. So this weekend on the 10th and 11th I'll be there in the midst of it all. Most probably hunkered down behind the artist alley table with my two cohorts :iconokashichan: & :iconjoteivv:
I may have a few limited prints and some of my book Undertown to sell, but I'm mostly there for the smell.

Vending Machines in Japan!!!!

Oh yeah they're totally amazing. And you always seem to have a giant load of change in your pockets if you're in Japan since the equivalent 1 and 5 dollar bills are coins over there. But furthermore, you could buy drinks sometimes with your subway pass, which seems simple but it blew my gaijin brain away every time.

It's a nice thorough interview with my writer Jim Pascoe with random pages of Undertown sprinkled throughout.

Also since some people have asked: I'm going to be a guest at Sakura Con in Seattle at the end of the month! I'll have MY OWN  panel, which I hope isn't completely empty and I'm a little terrified now that I think about it. And I'll also do the "Tokyopop Creators Spotlight" Panel. Both of those events will be on Friday the 28th, I'm not going to stick around the con very long though since I'm catching a flight to Tokyo the following day on Saturday.

It's really a pretty awesome thing to be one of the top headline stories on the site, so of course I'm beaming!
Conversely this makes me pretty nervous, since I'm more then behind on the 2nd volume. If it's the last thing I do I have to focus!

But Damn... I don't know if I can really fully digest how cool this is.
I don't care if it's really impossible to show manga in newspapers where you are only getting 2 pages each week, at least more eyeballs will fall across Undertown.
