As BotCon‘s guest list was being announced day-by-day, I considered putting a print together of all their characters so folks could buy it and get it signed by everybody. A shrewed plan, right? And, hey, Stan Bush is going to be there (again), so they can all be rocking out. And so day by day, all these guests are announced, and the guests DO NOT STOP BEING ANNOUNCED.
I stopped working on this thing once it became apparent to me that there’s no way I’m gonna be able to fit everybody on here. There was a point in time I thought maybe I’d just draw the G.I. Joe characters of some actors into the audience to fit them in all efficient-like, but, ha, no, then we learn that we’re getting a whole slew of Transformers Prime people, too! This thing suddenly became impossible.
So in lieu of a real Friday strip, as I am cramming to get out the door for the convention, here’s a look at what might have been. I am sorry. Hey, Wednesday’s strip was kind of like two strips smushed into one, right? But never fear. A real strip is already uploaded for Monday, and it is ridiculous.




This would be the greatest Rock Band game ever.
Ridiculous huh…Does it involve Ronald Regan juggling some flame broiled bratwurst while riding a unicycle and wearing nothing but a loincloth and and a propeller cap?
Great, now you’ve spoiled it for everyone.
Daddy would you like some sausage?
Actually, when I first saw this I thought you were planning to do something similar to what my friend Matt Furie did when he was drawing at a Nintendo event. He just printed up posters of several of his characters all hanging out like this with some blank space wherein he would quickly draw/caricature the person who came up to buy a print.
So, you could totally still do that
For some nominal fee, I imagine. Draw in the requestor and a friend in the lower corner and their favorite character up top
This looks like it would have been bad ass.
That sux about the table man. Hey, any chance you’ll be making AnimeFest again this year?
Must Kill DAVID WILLIS…..Then all that stuff I bought online will be worth some real dough
That thing is supposed to be a tambourine, right? If it is, the you drew the metal bits as if they were floppy paper decorations, instead of sticking out of the rim.
Here’s a reference image so that you can understand what I mean:

Clicking that link was a lot less traumatizing than I was afraid it would be. XD
Jeez, Poster, it’s an unfinished work.
You should still Finnish it post convention for your fans that read your comic!
I thought it was gonna be the cover for the next book at first.
ME GRIMLOCK POWER METAL! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!*Epic Optimus solo*
ack!!
I’m kinda tripping out that you’re drawing without a white backdrop and letting the transparent layer come through.
let it be known that no matter what you do in life, it’ll never be as awesome as this.
Finally caught up! Now just DoA to catch up on.
Bravo Mr. Willis.
(P.S. Still holding onto hope that Robin and Lesbian, er Leslie, get back together.)
