I worked Comic-Con 2004 and met Andy Bawidamann to boot! Nice guy- I really like his work. He gave me one of his signed space-girl prints. He's also a tiki fan and bemoaned the fate of the Kahiki (while we were drinking. Drinking and bitchin'': sign of a true tiki enthusiast?)

Comic-con was good business wise but a little disappointing in other respect,s i.e. it didn't seem to be the freak fest of previous years. Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of costumes but not enough of the "I stole my sisters leotard and gaffers tape" type. Did get to see "Daisy Duke" and a gal who was in the Gerry/Sylvia Anderson "UFO" series.

If you saw the "Sideshow Toys" booth most of the 12" stuff was my work (no jokes please-oh hell, make some jokes!)
