next up – Comics MD Fest

so San Diego Comic Con is finally over and hopefully everyone has recovered somewhat from it. Bryan “Flash” Turner was on the west coast on a solo mission, putting his portfolios in all the right hands! even more exciting is that his LEGO adaptation of the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” comic was being given as Comic Con swag at the LEGO and IDW booths! all 3 parts of the story that originally appeared in “TMNT New Animated Adventures” #11-13 were collected in one special edition book. Flash provided the awesome art and Peng-Peng did the lettering for it. if you got a copy, have Flash sign it at the next show!

if you’re looking to relax with a small one-day show to look at each vendor at your leisurely pace, Peng-Peng and theFranchize will be at the Comics MD Fest in Waldorf, MD this Saturday – Aug. 2nd – from 10am to 4pm. (Flash will be taking a much-deserved break from doing Comic Con by himself.) they will have prints and books available as well as doing some zombie sketches for fans of “Fanboys Vs Zombies.” visit the conventions facebook page for more info – https://www.facebook.com/waldorfconventions
