A-Kon Dallas this weekend

[Rob]

Hey guys, I'll be at A-Kon (http://a-kon.com/) in Dallas this weekend.

I'll be there all three days signing bits of paper and selling some of our every character posters:

http://www.flashasylum.com/db/files/Merc/posterPreview.jpg

We don't sell them online so come by and pick one up. It'll be the only merch item at the table, which makes things nice and simple for all of us.

I'll also be doing some sort of panel(s) but I haven't been told what they are yet. Check back here for updates or just the panel listing when you get to the con.

Should be fun times!

[El Zilcho]

I wonder if someone would be willing to part with their poster for 20 bucks?
Doubtful.

EDIT: Nevermind. I thought you guys were giving them away. It wouldn't make much sense to sell something you just bought.

[HappyPalooza]

It wouldn't make much sense to sell something you just bought.

eBay?

[STFG]

Why don't you make that poster available on line? You know, it's not like I don't want to meet you, but living in Brazil makes it a bit difficult to go to Dallas ^.^

[Rob]

It might be online at some point.

[mfalcon]

At some point the poster may be online with intentions of selling itself......what a whore.

[Solmu]

I moved to Chicago from San Antonio about 2 years ago.

Fuck. I so would've come.

[xcomicxloverx]

Ooh I wish I could come. When it said A-Kon dallas at the top I thought it was a new short :( dammit

[Shrimp782]

Awww... I wish I could come. I really want one of those posters. If you put them online, I would SO buy one! Ok, maybe two...nah. Well whatever, have fun.

[Nemmukat]

Hey Rob, don't know if you have but, ever gonna come to england? I love you :wail:

[Kevdog]

If there are left over posters i want one. :P

[Independent]

Not England, are you ever coming to Europe? I love your humour and I read your strips everday, but being from Spain makes things so complicated...
I have a solution! Come to Barcelona's Comic Convention this weekend!! XD
I'll want this poster when you sell it online, will you tell people when you're goinf to sell it?

[cyanideisthenewpatron]

A WANT A POSTER!

[Mily]

I would (will?) buy one online too.... Everyone seems to have an excuse, mine is that I live in France. It already sucks most of the time, but this time it's particularly shitty. :cut:
Whatever, it seems like you have money to make here :yes:

LOVE THIS WEBSITE

Sounds like a fun time.

[dongraft]

It would be great if someone could grab some posters and sell them at ebay :D

shoplifting's my specialty.

I'm debating if the A-Kon entry price is worth being able to go and buy the poster. 45$ for a poster...

[Rob]

A-Kon's a pretty cool place regardless of the poster. Fun stuff to see and do.

[xfact3r]

I'll be there with a few friends. It'll be awesome to meet ya! Looking forward to it!

[vacuumbrand]

I REALLY want to go to this. In all likelihood, I will. I mean shit, I only live like 30 minutes away.

They came before and met up with a bunch of people dummy.
Waiting for the come to Australia post...

[TurboJesus3000]

If you make the poster available online, please remember that we (common mortals) would like it to have a decent resolution so we can print it.

Or else, maybe you could send it to our addresses and save us some time, because we have to work/study/sleep/eat/wank. And because time is money, maybe work/study/sleep/eat/wank is money. And because I live in Portugal, I guess I'm poor so I don't want to lose any money while wanking.

Thank you, you (ass)holiness.

[iBubbles]

If only I didn't live few thousant kilometers away

[Saint_Jimmy]

Yes, so when will the C&H crew come to the netherlands?

[Freekai]

Yes, so when will the C&H crew come to the netherlands?

I live in Holland too, and know a few ppl who definitly want a poster!

[GeekZombie92]

Ugh. I wish I could see it bigger so I could tell who is on it. Still, it looks awesome either way.

Reason: Stop that. You aren't as clever as you think you are.

[aflo]

:frown:


It is a pity not being able to go and buy a poster.

I love your work and I send all my friends a cartoon that I like or applied to any subject. I collect every cartoon you have published. I love your work and I'd love to have a poster.

Shame that I live in Mexico. Not far away, but I can´t go.

Greetings

[Garf]

Hmmm, I wonder what it would cost me to go to Dallas from Denmark, with stay and food and entry fee and ofc the poster...
Probly not worth it... but then again a signed poster with all the Cyanide and Happiness characters would be priceless...

[Paulo]

Ooh I wish I could come. When it said A-Kon dallas at the top I thought it was a new short :( dammit
hahahaha so did i

[xcomicxloverx]

hahahaha so did i
lol i wonder wen the new short WILL come :( ther so freakin funnyyy

[Paperthin]

Ohhh, I'll be at A-kon! I'll be the fat guy in the blue wig!

[holycrapacolaham]

It might be online at some point.


that would be so bitchin'! I would frame it with old cat hair from my ex-girlfriends place that I've collected while stalking her! :bag:

[boris03]

[camilleille]

[Ureshii]

These threads are terrible

[UnHolyLight]

[uman44]

Oh you bastards... I'll be in Dallas in 2 weeks. Can you ask them to postpone the Con pretty please? Also, hurray for my first post!

[Allen]

Merch. Ha. Even If I still thought C+H was funny, I still wouldn't buy anything because why the FUCK would I give money to Rob?

[Rob]

So I can pay rent :(

edit: In my 5,000 sq ft New York penthouse I mean.

[Sequence2Destruction]

[Vaundalized]

[LEFT]@ Rob: I'm so excited that explosm will be at A-KON. This is only my second time going. My first time was A-KON 18. I've been checking the site to see if the 'group' would be there. See you guys tomorrow :) I'll be Suigintou from 'Rozen Maiden'.

I have a good friend in Iceland actually. I'll be over at some point.

[DavidB]

I was there, and I gotta say, going to you're little set-up was the best, Rob. It was my first convention ever, but even then I'm not sure if the whole idea of free sketches was something new or not, but still... fuckin' brilliant. Not only was getting a sketch from you the best thing that happened, but it was cheapest (so of course I was willing to pay 10$ to snag myself an "every character" poster). And it was made simple & easy at that. I wish I knew we were free to giving you themes, though... Love the work, hope to see you (and get another sketch, maybe??) again. Anyone else that went and got a sketch?? I'd love to see them, and I'd be willing to show you mine (not to boast, but it's pretty long). PM me if you have one or are curious about mine.

[PixieofDoom]

Thank You so so so so much for the poster and sketch at Akon. Unfortunately I had to work all weekend so I couldn't go but my brother got one for me and my Duckter sketch really made my day :D <3

[Rob]

Glad you liked it!

[MatthewP]

I miss Rob on Ustream...

[CharlieH]

Are you planning to come back to England at some point?

If so, don't put the poster online until after you've been. I want at least some of the time I own to be able to call it Limited Edition.

[soggydave]

Yes Rob, I sure did enjoy my awkward conversation while getting my awkward themed sketch. It was great.

[JDonnellly]

Damn , I want 1 of those posters. It's awesome , shame I live in Ireland and its abit of a distance to Dallas do you know... Ah well , hopefully ye'll come to Ireland and I'd be able check out whatever is goin on and buy some merch like the poster and have a great craic.

[DarkSlayerKi]

You mentioned something about posting the sketches on the forums at your table at A-kon, so here goes it, because I'd hate to disappoint the all knowing Rob.

Btw, I loved my sketch. Its my facebook profile picture now. Thanks so much Rob!

[Rob]

They pay me money.

[Ercoledi]

Fine, I'll buy a fucking plushie.

[solrak0417]

I don't even remember that one.

[Rob]

[Assassin]

You should totally sell these online because I would buy some, like now ((:

You should have A-Kon in Japan.

Feel free to delete if it's against the rules, but I got 2 posters at A-kon and have one on ebay if any of you whiners really wants one that bad:

[Rob]

It says it was signed by the "rest of the gang" even though I was the only one there...

[j-haul]

lol i wonder wen the new short WILL come :( ther so freakin funnyyy
dude i know!!! they're all soooo awesome!!

[j-haul]

It says it was signed by the "rest of the gang" even though I was the only one there...
haha thats hilarious! Did the other guys just not wanna go or what?

[Rob]

They wanted to fly in but the economy came in and said "hey guys you should save money"

[Peeka]

How much do you charge for one of your doodles? I'm planning on going to a convention in the forseeable future

[evilkeo]

It says it was signed by the "rest of the gang" even though I was the only one there...

maybe I should modify that... it was actually signed by you and the other 2 guys at the booth. i knew they weren't the other writers, but not actually sure who they were so I said "the rest of the gang that was at A-kon." next line was a poke at one of them because he "professionally rolled" my posters for me ;).

[evilkeo]

This was the sign at their booth at A-kon. Could change later:

Poster: $10
Sketch: Free*
Combo (poster with sketch): $10
Combo without poster: Free

*forgot to remove astrisk


loved the sign!

So you're trying to sell a poster on ebay that is signed by me, a friend of mine and some guy who I don't really know that came behind the booth?

Could you modify the description so it's more accurate?
