My name is Jason Green. I'm the comics editor of PLAYBACK:stl, a writer for Low Key Comics, and a life-long comics fan, dating back to devouring "Spidey Super Stories" in Electric Company Magazine over two decades ago.
I began attending conventions in 2000 with what I think at the time was still called Chicago ComiCon (and is now known as Wizard World Chicago). I had brought along my own sketchbook to doodle in at the hotel, but when I noticed that David Mack--THE David Mack, the guy whose crazy art in Kabuki I loved so much--was doing sketches for a measly $10, I couldn't help myself. I grabbed my sketchbook, flipped it over, and began getting sketches from comic book pros. A few years later, I had collected 40-some sketches by some of the best pros in the business. Now that the book was over half-full, it was becoming a more constant occurence that pros would grab my book and open it to see my own horrible, horrible artwork. That just wouldn't do.
So for Wizard World Chicago 2004, I started a new sketchbook, one that I'd only fill with professional sketches. As WWC 2005 began, I had noticed that all the sketches I had gotten so far were of female characters (except in the case of a sketch that had both Reed AND Sue Richards on it, but I figured that was still fair game), so I decided to continue that trend and see what kind of great sexy women sketches I could get.
As I get time, I'll slowly be updating this page with every sketch I've ever gotten at a con, including some stories of the experience with the pro, so you can feel like you were there!
