I hope you have checked out @arseniclullaby, a comic artist I have re-steemed and featured in my Follow Friday posts. His subjects may not be to all tastes, but I really enjoy his work. He's been pretty active on Steemit and is bringing in more people from the comics world.
He posted recently about his lastest Comic-Con where he had a special edition of his work on sale. He did a special offer for Steemians with the option to pay in Steem or SBD. I took him up on this even though the postage was a bit expensive. I got this lot in the mail today.
I was pleasently surprised to get two books as well as some badges and a sticker.
It gets better...
On the back he's done a sketch and then he added some more loose sketches inside. How cool is that?
This story has a little twist as the package contained another extra. Somehow Doug (the man behind this comic) managed to slip his Samsung table into the package. That may explain why the postage was more than he expected. It arrived intact and I'll be sending it straight back. The light rectangles are glowing tape to help him find it easily. Hmm, my chair is wearing a bit thin.
Doug is a cool guy, but don't be surprised if he winds you up a bit. I'm sure he's nice really. I know from experience that what seems like a witty remark when you write it can be taken the wrong way. I tend to assume people mean well until they show otherwise.
Doug has not only linked to his Steemit page from his site. He's also writted some blog posts about it. That is bearing fruit. If you see more comics artists and fans around here it may be down to him. Check out @comicspectrum who has the largest comic collection in the world!
I just saw someone else also got a package today.
Support the people doing cool stuff on Steemit.
Steem on!
