It was at this show where I looked up from my table and Will Eisner was watching me draw. And I had three offers from various publishers to publish Soulwind. It came out the following year from @imagecomics.com . OAKLAND’s Wondercon is where I got my start. @comicconoakland.com will fill this space.

Fanart prints of two sizes fanned out. You can’t see any of them super clearly but there’s definitely TADC, Deltarune, Hades, and I Don’t Want to Be a Magical Girl in there.
