Messin' Round 10-3-12

An idea loosely following a random idea generator. It was: A scrawny, charming, guide who may or may not be an Elf.

Prints and C2E2

I just received word that I can get a table for C2E2 again, so I'm hoping to be there this March. I just need to plop down the dough for a full table. This year I'll be accompanied by my wife and our NEW BABY. She's not here yet, but it's getting close :) At the show I will be selling prints. Some will be drawn by the magnanimous Tom Nguyen. Images that I did for his book Incredible Comic Book Women I'll also have a few treats of my own. Some prints of my work and very special C2E2 2011 exclusive. All these works works will be posted up in the Prints page as they become available. See you soon! -Jon

The idea is a device that you would place on your child's ankle or wrist (the band would be expandable), and with an app you would control the amount of Melatonin produced, inducing sleep. As a parent of a child who, seemingly, never sleeps, this would have been amazing :) I went in with a fair amount of humor with the idea, but took the process seriously. Below you can see a product mockup which showcases the t...
