Last year after appearing at my first HeroesCon I wrote up a lengthy Con Report about my experience.

Sunday, June 6th, 2010I’ve just completed my first big comic book convention, Heroes Con, at which I was promoting my webcomic, Nathan Sorry, and selling its accompanying mini-comics.

I’ve been wanting to play with both of them for a while but wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to do with them.
