PKD Media @ The 2010 Comic Geek Speak Super Show!

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

For those that are not in the know, Comic Geek Speak is a podcast that focuses on comic books, graphic novels and a fortitude of topical artistic/creator discussions five days a week.

They have a very strong following, and 2010 marks the second year of Comic Geek Speak’s own comic convention called the CGS Super Show! The Super Show will have a rotisserie of creators and artists ranging from such names as Jamal Igle (Supergirl, Firestorm), Mike Norton (Green Arrow/Black Canary), Katie Cook (Star Wars), Danielle Corsetto (Girls With Slingshots), and a slew of others. There will also be vendors and much, much more as well. Imagine it as a comic convention with a “welcome home” type of feel to it.

Find out more info on the CGS Super Show here.

PKD Media will also be attending the CGS Super Show as well, and we even have a official sponsor that has paid our table fees! Woo-hoo!

The 100% Super Show Approved website (Created and run by comics creator Dave Dwonch) has further details on this:

Artist/Illustrator Andy Jewett co-sponsored by PKD Media for the Comic Geek Speak Super Show!

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Artist/Illustrator Andy Jewett over the years has had work published by Angry Gnome Comics, Arcana Studio, Dial R Studios, Ronin Studios and Silent Devil and Top Shelf. He currently has a compelling and thoughtful mini-comic called “Sicko” out which is one of my favorite books of 2009.

He has also provided a cover to the upcoming “PKD Media Presents: Volume 2″ as well. Andy just wants to tell stories with pretty pictures. He does a fine job doing such.

Andy has decided to get a artists table at the 2010 CGS Super Show, and the upcoming PKD Media podcast (The PKD Black Box) is the official co-sponsor of Mr. Jewett, chipping in to take care of half the fees for his table.

We’re glad that Andy has decided to come to the Super Show, and hopefully people stop by and pick up a sketch or two from this underrated and talented dude.

See you at the Super Show, Andy. The PKD Black Box podcast is honored to be your co-sponsor.
