On The Road Again

Back in the day we logged a lot of miles traveling to comic book stores and conventions for appearances to promote the TMNT books. Most of the time we packed into Pete's Honda Wagovan to make the drive or we would board a crowded, over-booked plane for the trip. But once, for a trip to the Mid-Ohio-Con, Mirage rented a tour bus with driver, used by the Rolling Stones no less, to make the haul in style. Everywhere we stopped people would ask us if we were in a band.

Pictured inside the bus are, among others, Steve Bissette, Kevin, Eric and Dan.

House Signing

We even did house signings. Here's Kevin doing a turtle sketch for some lucky kids in 1989. We were on our way to Mid-Ohio Con.

Toy Scouts Inc.

Here's Eric perusing the vintage 60's toy collection of famed Toy czar Bill Bruegman.
We stopped by Bill's Toy House, home of Toy Scouts Inc., on our way to the Mid-Ohio Con in november '89
hoping to find an elusive Aurora Big Frankie. The vintage toys, model kits and action figures were stocked from basement to attic and stuffed into every room in between. Eric bought a bunch of skull stuff if memory serves us.
