SPAIN, TAKI SOMA and Abe Sapien

MADRID COMIC CON
Monday morning Taki Soma and I trek off to Madrid for a wonderful week of museum explorations and meeting comics people at http://www.expocomic.com/
It's been a long time since we've been in Spain, and I have already been there four or five times now, though this is my first trip to Madrid. We are particularly excited to visit Picasso's Guernica which is housed there. It was very influential to Taki as an artists when she first saw it published in a Japanese newspaper as a child.
I'll post lots of pictures when we return.
Speaking of Taki, She has a new back up story in the latest issue of the Victories- #7 so be sure to check it out. Big revelations through the issue and especially in her back up story.
ABE SAPIEN!
My issue of Abe comes out next week- issue 8 and here is an interview with me and Scott Allie about it- http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=47435 and a preview here-
