Happy Fourth of July!

Filed under: From the Studio — billy @ 5:08 pm

Hello All, I got a wonderful piece of original art today in the mail. As you might recall, the oh so creative son of Mr. Richard “Boom Boom” Boom, did an amazing rendition of my Lady Death cover to LD/Shi. I love the kalidiscope of colors and Deborah really loved the crown he added to the piece. THANK YOU! Boom Boom, can you put it up again? I couldn’t find the thread, but I’ve got to find a place for it in “ D addy’s Workshop” (as William refers to my studio). I’m working on a new CBG cover that I should finish tomorrow by dinner (or at least Thursday morning) and then must do another cover for my friend Raven Gregory’s “Return To Wonderland.” I’ll kick out some roughs on Thursday, do more commissions and write some more as well.

I also put up another commission I did today and worked on my mainstream book (reading breaking down the issues — lot’s of research). Also, my new Hellion For Hire will be up today.

On the Con front, I’ll be meeting with Mike Richardson from DC to make our plan for the new Shi series, and we got the roster to the DC/Marvel softball “Stan Lee Cup.” I’ll be playing for DC this year!

I might also be doing “A Child Is Born” this summer. Since it’s only one issue, I might eek it out before doing the mainstream book. I’m sorry for not doing a Shi book this Fall/Winter/Spring, and am really upset about it, but sometimes I just don’t know where my head is.

Well, this weekend was a very nice one indeed as Gary Cohn came out Saturday morning and stayed for dinner and the night. We took our motorcycles out Saturday night for an nice jaunt. We also talked shop and he helped me with some ideas I had been playing around with this last week. We really have fun working together. Tomorrow morning I’ll be meeting him in Oyster Bay (about 40 miles from my home) for breakfast and then the parade in Teddy Roosevelt’s home town. Should be fun!

Have a great Fourth of July everyone! (At least those here in the States), everyone else just “Have a Nice Day!”
