We’re back from Columbus with another… -- Convention Report: Mid-Ohio Con! -- Last year’s Mid-Ohio show was a blast, and we’re happy to report that this year was even better. We were drawing commissions the whole weekend, and though our knuckles are swollen, it was worth it! We met some great people, talked about our comic, The Uniques, and generally just got to chat with the folks that came by. We met a lot of people who already knew our work, either from this blog or our deviantART pages or elsewhere, and that was a wonderful surprise! We aren’t used to being sought-after artists, and it was fun to get to play the part for a couple days. So a quick shout-out to all you guys reading the blog! We send a lot of thoughts out into the internet void, and you never know how much of that’s getting picked up or if you’re just yelling in a closet. Turns out we’ve got more people paying attention to us than we thought, and we want you all to know how deeply appreciative and thankful we are. You’re all great, each and every one. But especially the ones who leave comments - you’re the greatest of all!

Golden Age Green Lantern by Comfort
Rogue and Logan, and a ballpoint pen sketch of a female version of Mephisto, all by Adam.
We also got to spend time chatting with our lovely neighbors, Kevin Leen and his lovely wife-- who saved our butts on Sunday when our bottle of juice shattered on the ground. She leapt to action and an admittedly minor crisis was averted. They’re both fun, very nice people, and made the show even better. We also got to spend a lot of time hanging out with author Bryan JL Glass (writer of one of our most beloved comics, Mice Templar) and his wife Judy - you can call her ‘Missus’ - who together are one of the most fun couples you could hope to meet. We spent hours talking and laughing and telling stories, and just having a fantastic time. The show was worth it if only for the chance to have time with such good friends.
Judy, Bryan, Comfort and Adam... all being crazy, none being bored. We promise. Mice Templar #2 is out now-- buy it! That is, if you aren’t one of those people who hate good comics and want to kill babies and worship devils and such. If you’re one of those types, we’ll leave you to your zombie comics.  Conan by Comfort and Red Sonja by Adam

So it was a lot of fun. We met great people, reconnected with friends of old, and drew our hands off. And hey, we even managed to turn a tidy profit in the process! Not bad for a weekend at the sleepiest li’l Con in the Midwest. We’ll definitely be back again next year, Ohio - count on it!
Headshots! Supergirl by Adam, and Leia and an original heroine/fan Portrait by Comfort

Finally, we leave you with photos of some of the costumes we saw at the show. Hope you had fun with the review, and we'll be back with regular blogging soon(ish). Now, back to work!
-Adam & Comfort
Last one-- a real treat for us, because this costume was based off of a design Adam made for the guy's original character, Mainframe. It's the first time we ever got to see our art in live-action, and it was really cool! Unfortunately, the suit had some technical problems after the first day and will need some re-stitching, but it was still neat.
