Do you have any artwork of your characters dressed up for Halloween? Show them off here!

Happy Diwalloween!

I love a good portmanteau, so I couldn’t help myself, nor could I in giving Chadhiyana a spooky makeover. But in earnest:

Happy Diwali & Happy Halloween! Whichever you celebrate or both!

Wasn't planning to post this one today...

My favourite comedy. RIP Teri Garr. Such a ray of light.

A recent art commission.

+2: Ridgefield Park Fall Festival (proxy, not attending)
+8-10: Monster-Mania Con 61 (Oaks, PA)

Here at Most Excellent Comics & Gaming for #halloweencomicfest with friends & fellow artists Stef Wilson, Kerry Anne, Criss Madd, Gus Mauk, Joe St Pierre & more! Come down for free comics, cool art, & indie comics. Cupcakes, too!

[J. M. DeSantis @jmdesantis]

The latest installment of A Kid & A Comic will be available tomorrow at Most Excellent Comics & Gaming for #halloweencomicfest!

Issues 2-8 still available. 8 gets you a fresh start, but you can read The Beast (from issue 1) & all of Chadhiyana (issue 5+) if you grab them all!

[J. M. DeSantis @jmdesantis]

It's not a bad way to go about it.

In fact, for anyone listening, 6-12 months or more in savings of base expenses, with some previous investments in your art or writing is a great way to go about it for a creator (speaking from experience now).

[Ricky Gervais @rickygervais]

26 years ago, I was made redundant and given a few grand. I decided that if I was careful, I could live off the money for 6 months trying to become a comedian before I had to get another job. I was 37. Worth a punt.

[Matt Farley of Motern Media @MoternMedia]

Matt Farley is a well respected artist.

[J. M. DeSantis @jmdesantis]

The type of readers I love: a woman bought two sets of my books for herself and her friend (each), and then her daughter grabbed a copy of The Kirklyn Horror.

You should two. Both available at shows & online through Amazon and B&N.

[J. M. DeSantis @jmdesantis]

Ready to go for two days of the Halloween Market at Shoppes at Dragon Village!

[Greg A Elysée - NYCC AA B-3 @GregAndElysee]

C.R.E.A.M. team back at it again at NYCC this weekend!! DC Comics and Milestone inker Anthony Fowler and your boy, Greg Anderson Elysée, teaming up at Artist Alley C-22! Cop something from both of us, get this free Is’nana the Were-Spider sticker illustrated by Anthony!

[J. M. DeSantis @jmdesantis]

Pleasantly surprised how incredible Cirque Du Creep was last night; so much so, I barely had time to take this pic (maybe two hours in) and never had a chance to post it. Thank you, everyone, who came out to support and to all my awesome neighbors. Cheers!

Now, onto the next two

[J. M. DeSantis @jmdesantis]

This weekend is going to be a blast; also, the most insane event schedule I've ever had:

Fri in Beacon, NY: Cirque Du Creep
Sat in Flemington, NJ: Scary Stories Book Fest
Sun in Salem, MA: Haunted Happenings Market

3 states in 3 days! Come out & support!
