While Marvel didn't have a booth at the show this year, Arcade Comics was there seated left-to-right: Rob Liefeld, Marat Mychaels and Chad Walker. Or is that his twin brother, Eric? Standing behind them is Jimmy Jay, helping to manage the booth and keep things running smoothly. All the Arcade guys were doing nice, detailed sketches with Liefeld's fans even waiting hours to get one.
Liefeld does some tight sketches at these shows too, not like the usual quick, marker head sketches you normally see either. These are nice, detailed pieces that are not only worth the wait, but are also a thank you to all the fans coming out to meet him. And he doesn't even charge anything for them. Although, I heard he was taking donations for ACTOR and the CBLDF this time.
Their booth also had the usual con exclusives, like, sketch covers to X-Force #2 and lots of original art for sale at the booth too. It's always easier to buy original art directly from the artist and especially in-person, so you don't have to worry about shipping and handling. And you can also see the pages up-close or even get them signed and personalized too.
