I don’t know if you know this or not, but I’m a Mike Mignola nut.

He’s my absolute favorite comic artist, and I’ve had the pleasure of meeting him, (trying) to chat with him, talking to his wife, and selling buttons to his daughter. The Mignolas bought all of our books at a past Phoenix Comicon, which pretty much made my decade.

My trouble is that I don’t know what to say to the guy. I’m just uber fanboyed out, and can’t seem to strike up a conversation with him at all. His wife, no problem. We hit it off, and I can make her laugh and all of that. I’ve read every Mignola interview I can get a hold of, so he’s already answered most of my questions.

Now, this is my personal problem; the Mignola’s have always been a class act, so I don’t want to leave you with the wrong impression. I’m the freakshow, in this case.

Anyway, since I’m letting this all hang out, I was directed to this eBAY auction that is pretty cool:

Hellboy for Obama art

It’s for the Comics Industry for Obama, and is currently at $1000. Ouch. I remember when I could have bought “Seed of Destruction” pages for like $300. (I was damn poor.)

Vote how you want of course; I just wanted to share some tasty Mignola with you.
