INSTANT PIANO FLIER


Robbie Busch and I created this flier to advertise the coming of INSTANT PIANO at the San Diego Convention, way back in '94.
Robbie drew Mark Badger's characters, as well as his own, while I drew and lettered everything else. Evan came up with the Neil Gaiman crack, but I don't get it.

At the time a lot of comics carried publicity quotes from Neil.

Post-Alan Moore quote era, pre --? Dunno who carried the torch after that.

I still have my flier from that San Diego con from so long ago. I was able to get the back signed with sketches from everyone. Definitely my favorite swag from that show.

A lot of stuff about you guys and Instant Piano in the Scott Allie interview over on AICN today. This may have something to do with that, don't know. But I found your blog because of it.

Thanks for the remarks, Jaka, and for pointing out the AICN thing.
Frankly, I find the retelling of the INSTANT PIANO story to be found there to be a bit melodramatic.

You're most welcome. Yeah, time has a way of adding a bit of melo to the drama of our memories, for sure. It sounded to me like a couple of old acquaintances reliving pieces of their past in a "tall tales" sort of way. Still, nice to be reminded of Instant Piano, and that they linked to all of your sites and/or blogs.
