I had a really great encounter at the Philadelphia Comic Con with Ron Wilson. You may know him as the artist on the first run of The Thing during the mid-to-late 70s through the mid-80s, as well as some of Marvel Two-in-One Featuring The Thing and other Marvel books as well during that time up to the early 90s.

He was a really cool, down-to-earth guy who give great advice about progressing in a comic art career ("keep knocking on doors" was one of the more important pieces). He also had good things to say about my comics (he liked the way I colored the books) and even bought the first two issues! What a guy.

So if a pro who's worked in the industry for years can like my comics, I think the rest of you who haven't checked out my books yet really should-they're right here at IndyPlanet.

I have a question for you; what are your comic books to you? A hobby where you might make a couple of bucks? A planned full-time career? Just something you need to do, regardless of what anyone thinks of them and/or regardless if anyone ever wants to pay you for it? I'm curious.

I'd like to see how far I can go with it. If I place a label on it, like "hobby", that will limit how far it goes. On the other hand, if I label it as "career", it will put pressure on me to make something of it that could end up making me hate it. So I'm going with "putting out the best story I can and see who likes it".

If I'm able to make a living out of it, great. If not, that's one less "what if" I'll be wondering about on my deathbed....
