Back from San Diego Comicon, Tucson Comicon and FanX Salt Lake! What an amazing year so far. Super humbled to have Bootleg Special included as one of the official variants of the '23 TucsonCon (Thank you Brian Pulido!). That was my favorite show of the year! Got to meet Jimmy Palmiotti, James O'Barr and Joe Jusko! Starting on issue #2 and had some time to put a new coat of paint on the ol' site before I'm knee deep. Enjoy!


5.15.23
Oversized prints just added to the whatnot shop! Grab a trading card set, original art page, comic book or art print and I'll be putting one FREE ashcan preview from FCBD 2023 in every order while supplies last! Be like these wonderful people here and get yourself a copy NOWWW! (If you aren't on whatnot and want to order stuff, send me an email!)


2.5.23
Issue #1 is out - 24 pages of full color bounty huntrage. Trading cards are also obtainable! You can drop by my Whatnot shop and pick up a pack of mint numbered /5 cards, a full 54 card set, a 3 issue 1st print variant comic set with 2 cards mint numbered /3 or a 2nd print comic signed with COA. Send me an email if you're not on Whatnot and would prefer to use paypal etc. Thanks for your support!

Bootlegverse Series 1 trading cards! Mint numbered 18 card set, autographed chase cards, additional lore and power stats from the Bootlegverse! Best of all? One random card comes with issue 1 of Bootleg Special, which I just finished a couple days ago! There will be a very limited supply and you will only be able to get them directly from me on Whatnot @billyscomics


12.20.22
I'm almost finished with the full first issue! If you are hoping to get a copy, your best bet is to follow me on whatnot and grab one from me directly, otherwise they will eventually be available from the usual brick and mortar comic shops that have previously stocked my stuff. Keep an eye out for it early next year!

8.15.22
My next show is Saturday, October 22 in Phoenix, AZ at the Epic Toy Show in El Zaribrah Shrine Auditorium. If you missed getting an oversized quadruple signed and sketched Lusterkaboom concert poster (only a handful left!) or if you want a signed 11x17 cover print of the sold out SDCC toddfather homage variant (or the regular cover), email me and I will bring yours to the show. Otherwise, I'll have two tables of back issue first appearance comics, Magic cards, comic cards and toys for sale!


7.18.22
Change of plans, I won't be at the Epic Toy Show on July 23rd in Phoenix - I'm going to SDCC! I'll have these LIMITED EXCLUSIVE Toddfather Homage Variants with me. Get em while you can - Booth 703 July 20-24 @ San Diego ComcCon!
