As always, here are cute dog pictures to cheer you up for the start of your week. I had a grueling but very fun time at Phoenix Comic Con for the last four days, so I am sitting here chilling with my three rescue dogs…

Irony
Here are some funny items that loosely fall into the irony category. I hope they give you a good laugh.

Banana Art
In my ongoing fascination with art using unusual items, I bring you banana art. Thanks to The Chive for pointing out this great new expressive form. Hopefully you will also find it as a-peel-ing as I do…
“Tattoing a banana entails a sharp-pointed tool grazing the skin of a banana peel, without puncturing through it entirely, to create art. It utilizes a natural process known as oxidation—a browning of the skin that’s exposed to oxygen—to draw. ”

- I wonder if you can also smoke a Bob Marley banana to get mellow yellow?

- Say banana one more time…

Opening Day at Phoenix Comic Con 2014
Already tired and Thursday is only a half day of fun. Phoenix Comic Con is a sensory overload of fun, costumes and friends, all set on a very firm concrete floor. You don’t realize how much you walk until the end of the day when you have sore feet from all the standing on hard surfaces. I forgot to buy those little spongy floor tiles for my booth again…sigh.
I had a great time today and I am looking forward to the next three days. Here are some samples of the first day:
-
- Engineer and Soldier from Team Fortress 2
-
- Post Apocalpytic Survivors
-
- Winged Unicorn and her two fairy children
-
- Saying hello at my booth
-
- Jolene Hauser and friends
-
- Becky, Khurt, Brian, Rayne, Sara and Johnna, Steampunk friends
-
- Me, Cara Nicole, Alfred Trujillo, Chris Wilke (the brown barrier at the bottom is a mystery)
-
- Bryan and his steampowered gatling rifle
-
- Cheetara and a tough nurse

Am I The Only One?
Am I the only one that wonders why President Obama put his whole administration behind dealing with our enemies the Taliban and releases these terrorists:

But when a decorated Marine accidentally drives into Mexico by accident (Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi):
All he gets is a hashtag?

Come Stop by My Booth at Phoenix ComicCon 2014!
I will be at booth #1629 back by the Star Wars exhibit area at Phoenix ComicCon. It is my same spot as last year. I will be signing discounted copies of my four latest books. In addition, my wife will be selling her custom made pop culture jewelry, including avengers, hydra, Vampire Diaries, Alice in Wonderland, Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, classic movies, and other items you can ONLY get from her shop, Susannes Treasures.
Joining us at our booth this year is the lovely and talented cosplayer Cassandra S. Kyle. Also, Chris Wilke will be selling copies of his latest novel Scarlet Angel, and Hal Astell will have copies of his books on classic B-movies. The PCC has grown until tickets are hard to get and certain times they might have lines to get into the vendor area during the peak hours due to fire marshal codes. Be sure to stop by though and say hello.

If you have not been to a pop culture convention before, PCC is my favorite. It has lots of things to do from indie movies, costuming, authors, comic artists, vendors, panels, zombie walks, competitions, steampunk events, manga, anime, and a host of awesome guests from TV, sci-fi, movies and other popular shows. You can check out the con at:

The vendor area will be open today from 4 pm until 9 pm, and open all day Friday through Sunday.
