Hey guys,
I know there isn’t a TMNT game this year, but I thought you’d like to see the pictures i took at E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo) 2010 anyway. They are mostly booth shots. I don’t bother taking video or pictures of games anymore since the internet blogs and websites that specialize in games do a much better job than I do and are usually in HD. Click the pic to go to my album.
Hey gang,
Just a quick note that Heather and I will be on vacation until tuesday. I’ll have my phone with me so I’ll check my e-mail a couple times a day. But if there is something news worthy that you’d like to see up in the meantime, please defer to one of the other staff members (e-mails in the sidebar).
With the release of Tales #70 in the coming days, this marks the end of the first 25 year chapter of Mirage. Dan Berger wrote a touching farewell on the Mirage Licensing Homepage, you should go check it out (click the pic).
While we say goodbye to Mirage, let me tell you that the Machines and I will definitely still be here, holding the fort, for the foreseeable future. With Nick/Viacom taking the reigns, somebody has to stay on top of things…and that somebody is certainly going to be us. So don’t lose heart friends. We will always be here for you, as we hope you are always here for us.
Hey guys,
I just wanted to drop a quick note about my schedule this holiday season. As you can imagine, between work, the holidays, and now planning a wedding, I am one busy turtle. So if I am slow to respond to your e-mails, or seem to have vanished during this holiday season I apologize!
Over the last few days I made a concerted effort to tackle my inbox of e-mail I haven’t got to yet, so If you are still waiting to hear back from me on something, feel free to remind me! But please don’t take the speed of my response personally. I can only tell you that I hope to be back to my old self after the New Year!
On a final note, We got many quality entires for the recent Christmas contest, and the winner will be announced sometime next week.
Thank god for social networking sites. Over the past few months, I have been blessed with the opportunity to get to know former Mirage artist Craig “A.C” Farley. Let me tell you he is one of the most incredibly humble and kind people on the planet, and the world is a better place with him in it.
A few weeks ago, I had asked Craig if I could send him some of his books to sign, and he was gracious enough to oblige me. Well the books came back today, and I thought you all would enjoy seeing them.
