Free Comic Book Day Hijinks!

SO Free Comic Book Day has come and gone and what an excellent and action packed day it was on both fronts of the Project 4 Publishing maelstrom of mayhem we unleashed on the little town of El Paso...There was action, drama, romance, reunions, intrigue, and COMICS!!!
For those of you who attended both signings held at the Time Capsule (or Time Machine according to the El Paso Times) and ALL Star Comics, thank you and I hope you got your free sketches and goodies at both locales...The photos I'm putting up are a few of the ones that were taken at the Time Capsule, and I would have taken more but we were overrun with FCBDers that I had to put the camera down and sign away my life to many of the fans in the form of autographs, you know they caught them autographs because they don;t sign themselves, heh...Arriba Los Technicos!!!
I want to take the time to thank our illustrious hosts for FCBD, the pride of the west side, John Pretiger at the Time Capsule located at 6501-D North Mesa in El Paso TX. and of course the mainstay of the Northeast Brad Wilson of All-Star Comics located at 4406 Dyer also in EL Paso. These gentlemen were kind enough to allow us to set up a mini home away from home and get down to business dispensing tons of free Project IV goodies to the masses that invaded for their FCBD fix on Saturday may 6th!!! I'll be posting more images from FCBD as I get them, but these are a few for you to peruse. It was a fantastic and exciting turn out this year and it was good to see so many new faces along with familiar ones, hopefully we'll see more of you for the debut of Fusion X the anthology at the premiere of X3 at the end of May...WHEEEEEE!!!

Bye the way, head on over to my comic review blog, The Hit List for my review of all, yes all the FCBD offerings that I managed to snag in between signings and chatting...I'm gonna make up for lost time..heh... www.thehitlists.blogspot.com

The legend himself Juan Muro, happy with the progress of inks on his current page, or perhaps happy at the box of tea someone left on the table?
