Any name suggestions for our new friend?buz-logo

Check out his bio here.

“Neil Vokes is a true original — creative, cantankerous, enthusiastic and an all-around great guy. I started working with him on Vampirella, and when he was fired from the book by know-nothing bean counters, I called him up to tell him not to take it personally, it’s not as if they had any taste or judgment. That call led to several collaborations, and a warm friendship. I hope I’ll still be coming up with projects Neil and I can do together until I retire, and I hope we’re friends for even longer. If you know Neil’s work, you know why I like it so much. If you don’t, check out the site. You’ve got a treat in store…” –Kurt Busiek

More amazing news for Galactic Con! Middletown’s Walgreens will be at the con to take instant pictures! If any of your were at last night’s Trick or Treat on Main St. then you know this is an awesome way to get a professional photo while you wait.

Get your picture taken with the 501st Garrison Carida Star Wars characters at the Walgreens booth! Walgreens will collect donations for the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation.

Remember we will also have more awesome cosplayers with the Delaware Ghostbusters and the Ashen Phoenix group!

Ashen Phoenix is a national cosplay group based out of the Northeast. Starting in the import scene, the team noticed a correlation between the designs of the cars and the overall celebration of Japanese culture. That was the first introduction into anime, and it became more of a fit for the girls than what they had been doing. Ashen Phoenix is comprised of a group of gamers, comic book fans, Otakus that have been cosplaying professionally for two years, even though some of them have been involved for almost a decade. They are constantly striving to learn more about the art of cosplay to create a wider variety of costumes with different techniques as the team prides themselves on designing their own attire. Check our their facebook page for some of their awesome costumes.
