Boston Comic Con - Joe Michael Linsner Commission


I have been remiss in not posting the other commissions I obtained a couple of weeks ago at the Boston Comic Con.

So here is the one I obtained from Joe Michael Linsner.

As I have said in the past, sometimes I opt to get commissions from artists who I think will have a unique interpretation or a distinct style that would be intriguing to see applied to the subject of Supergirl.

So when I saw that Linsner was going to be at the Boston Comic Con, I put him high on my list of potential commissions. Linsner is best known for his character Dawn. His work on Dawn is sexy and he could probably be labelled as a 'good girl' artist. I wondered just what his Supergirl would look like.

I think this is a great piece. It is a classic pose, Supergirl flying in the sky but with a playful sideways 'come hither' look, curvy with some serious thigh being shown.

It is clearly a Linsner Supergirl piece without being so over the top cheesecake that I would feel embarrassed to show it. It is just what I wanted ... Linsner's interpretation of the Maid of Might. It is a very nice addition to my collection.

Boston Comic-Con Day 2



Well, day one of the Boston Comic Con was absolutely phenomenal.

First off, it was unbelievably busy. This convention has really grown in popularity. At one point, they had to stop letting people in because of fire code issues. The line outside waiting to get in wrapped around a corner of the hotel. Crazy!

All the guests were readily available. And I was able to grab some commissions which I will post soon. I got a great Steve Rude piece. I am on Joe Michael Linsner's list so will pick that one up today. I even grabbed one from Tiny Titans writer/artist Franco. I'll post these soon.

Lastly, the hope is to get one more from Joe Quinones today.

On top of the commissions, I was able to meet and chat with some great creators and grab some autographs - Jim Starlin, Bill Sienkiewicz, JH Williams III, and Cam Stewart. I also shopped a little bit and grabbed some back issues.

And now ... on to day two!
