MAS Convention Re-cap: Day #3

Day #3

And the race was on!
But this time MAS wasn't the only Independent with new or revamped projects on the table. Right next to us, sharing our table was the dynamic creative dueo, Robert Nunez and his wife and partner in crime, Isibeel Nunez, pushing his new creator ownend title that was debute at the con, Hybridborn! The turn out for the day was overwhelming but there was a surprise. It was not the new graphic novel that rose from the independent ashes(at least not immediately)but Hybridborn, which had went strong for the full three days thus far and, to MAS surprise, yep, you guessed it, our fighting mad hero, Russ! That's right our fearless friend was selling out hands over fist!
The stunning visuals and high action, panel layouts made true believers(sorry Marvel, but the catch phrase is too good to leave out) of any would be fans. Issue after issue sold out like glass rings at a wedding party!
Then again, Russ has an edge as a full color title that promises all five book which are all presently available for purchase and the final climatic Final Issue(#6) a breath away from completion. It was well into three hours before the first sales spark for the "Street Journal"Graphic Novel was set. Overall, the Graphic Novel did do very well and brought in new fans, but it was Hybridborn and Russ that stole the show!

So, it was off to day four and who knew what that entailed. Either way, our trusty Independent crew, tired but amped was set and ready for one final dance under the Convention lights.
