Today there is a Newsarama.com article about my return to interior work for Marvel. You can see that article at http://www.newsarama.com/comics/Brandon-Peterson-avengers-marvel-interview.html. I have a bunch of new projects coming up this year, and I will be able to talk more about them in the coming days and weeks. Here is a little taste of something I will be announcing soon.

I will be attending the Long Beach Comic Con on October 29 and 30 at the Long Beach Convention Center. Lots of great guests will be there and if you missed me in July at San Diego, you have another chance to see my smiling mug. The show’s website has all the information so check it out- http://www.longbeachcomiccon.com/.

I will be signing and such both days, and also saying “Hi” to old friends in California I haven’t seen much in the dozen years I’ve been in Florida. I will be staying a few days after the show and then heading up to the San Francisco area for a bit so hopefully I will have a chance to meet up with all my fellow miscreants while I am on the West Coast.

No it’s not some sort of European plague, it’s the last bit of art finally in from Aviles. This was another of those special commissions for a fan who had waited forever to get it. It was Death and John Constantine, done at the show over the course of a sleepless night.

A finished commission from Aviles. I took some real care on this one for a nice fan who waited a year to get something from me. Yosu, I hope you are happy!

A Phoenix from Aviles. The show is going great, it’s more vacation than convention, and everyone is about the nicest they could be. Fellow professionals, you need to get to this festival. They would love to have you.

I am a guest at the comic festival in Aviles Spain this week. It is probably the most picturesque place on Earth and I am having a great time, I got a little portable roller scanner to capture some artwork that I am doing at the show and this is the first one I got. I imagine there will be more to come over the next few days.

I will be attending both days of the Baltimore Comic-Con this weekend, bringing along plenty of goodies to sell. Along with my yearly goodies, I have done a print set for this year, combining the 3 prints I have almost sold out of this year plus an exclusive print available only in the set. The price will be $40, which is a good deal considering I usually charge $20 for each individual 11×17 print, and you are getting four in a nice white kraft paper envelope with the color art you see above printed on the front.

I will also be selling the single prints I have left as well, along with previous artbooks I have left on hand. Because I missed the show last year, I have plenty of copies of last year’s book saved for this show as well.

Baltimore is one of my favorite cons, and it’s one of the few truly comic book oriented shows left. You can find more info about the show at http://baltimorecomiccon.com. I look forward to seeing you all there.

Another panel, BANG! Ka-Pow!

A preview panel for an upcoming issue I’m drawing. I’ll try to post a new one of these every day, as long as it doesn’t give too much story away.

My new artbook, “Illuminations 2011″, has been completed and is selling great. I sold out of what I had at San Diego a few weeks ago, and I plan to bring plenty of copies with me to both Baltimore and Aviles, Spain over the next few months to those conventions. I will also probably have copies for MegaCon and Heroes Con next year. If you can’t make it to any show I am at, you can pick the books up from both Stuart Ng Books (http://stuartngbooks.com) and Bud Plant Books (http://www.budplant.com) for mail order at good prices.

This year I am also selling some prints of various pinup ladies. You can get them individually or in a limited edition print set, with an exclusive print only available in the set. I will have these at both Baltimore and the Aviles, Spain show. I do not plan to sell the prints or the print set in any way other than in person.
