John Beatty in Manila

Last Sunday it was the a big comic book signing event for Comic Odyssey and also a big event too for comic fans. The Secret Wars, Batman, Capt. America inker for comics - John Beatty, is in town doing a free comic book signing to everyone. I went there to take photo coverage and also video of the event, which will be uploaded here soon, just give me time to edit it.

I was there and surprise for a big crowd in Comic Odyssey, Robinsons Galeria branch in Ortigas city. As comic fans and also comic creators showed up in support to John Beatty and also to have a short greet and meet with the comic artist. I arrived at 2pm and it was hot that day but the day got hotter when It was the day that people will meet the John. heheheeh

I got a copy of Captain America, courtesy of Comic Odyssey, and its the comic cover that Im really impressed when I saw it in the internet, someone told me If I already know its story, I just told them honestly that I have'nt read it before and its my first time to have this in my collection, i told them that I have lots of Batman comics in Pasig but I don't have the time to go there to re-organize my old collection.

People lined up to get a free sketch from John Beatty, some people requested characters like Spider-man, Batman, Azrael, Joker and etc., Mine was Captain America hehhe and I was the last man to have his sketch and autograph, we chatted a little bit during the event, I asked him about his blog that I visited last month and he said that it was his blog and then I told him about his Sunday comic artist group and then it seems that we kinda get related on our conversation when I told him about my old Friday artists group hahahaha. He told me to leave a message there in his blog in to linked me up hehehehe.
