The Big hit in Louisville seems to be the Superman Vs Muhammad Ali prints along with the 100 Greatest Athletes of the century.....Why?
(1) Because this is Louisville...Home of Ali and the Muhammad Ali museum,...and.....
(2) Because both prints have the exact same composition...Except in the first, Ali is boxing Superman
and in the second Ali boxing Michael Jordan...And watching the fight is the other 98 "Famous athletes of the Century".
Also...These matching prints are sold not only at the regular print size but also at the deluxe at 13x19 at $30.00 each and the giclee at 16x22 at $100.00 each (These are really classy.)http://www.nealadamsstore.com/search.asp?keyword=champions&search=GO
All are suitable for framing and all have the legend showing everyone in the audience.
Hi Everyone,
Neal is at Fandomfest getting his Booth ready for the crowds. He is signing all weekend.
He is selling books, prints, original art. Sketches in books, sketches on prints. Bring all your comics down. Pull out your copy of "Superman VS Muhammad Ali."
This is the moment to get everything you have of Neal's signed.
Neal also loves conversation so come on down and ask any question you want.
Ask Neal about his Batman black and white story. The Xmen cover he just did. The Galactus cover he just did. The Unity cover we just handed in. What is his next project going to be.....? Does it start with
a "S" or does it start with a "R"? Oops forgot the Thor Hercules cover.......
He will be at the show all three days starting today.
Have a Great Time.
Next weekend Neal is in Boston for the Boston Comic Con
Louisville.
I couldn't believe there could be a better convention than San Diego Comic Con, then I realized we where going to Louisville and I heard such wonderful things about the people in Louisville. I hope they can live up to all the wonderful things people have been saying about Fandomfest. We will see you next weekend. Can't wait. Have your comics ready!
Shout out to Louisville.
Neal:)
I will be bringing the first page from my Batman Black and White with me to Louisville. Come and ask me about this project.
I am at Booth 1829.
I will be doing a panel "Quick Draw" with the Great Sergio Aragones and the master himself Scott Shaw. I know this is one of the highlights of the show every year at Comic Con. So come and support me today since I will be a little out of my element, at least that is what Sergio and Scott will think...Ha ..Ha..Ha... But I always have many tricks up my sleeve .
Remember my first start was doing Jughead pages for Archie. Hmmm This should be very useful to me today. Like I said, "A, can't miss panel". A once in a life time panel for me meaning it is my first time.
I will have to kill my daughter Kris when I get back to New York since she is the one that signed me up for this... See you at 11:45 today, wish me luck.
Today I will be doing an important panel at 1:00 to 2:00 on a project that I and Rafael Medoff and myself and Continuity Productions and Disney Education have been working on called "They Spoke Out". This is probably one of the most important pieces of work that I have worked on in my career.
"They Spoke Out is a series of motion comic videos profiling Americans of all
faiths who spoke out against the Nazi genocide for a Disney DVD that
debuts at San Diego Comic-Con. Room 4
"We’re not throwing the Holocaust at you," says Adams. "We’re
offering a way to help American kids experience the Holocaust through
these videos, so they can make their own decisions as to how deeply they
want to go into further study."
Created by Disney Educational Productions and the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies
in Washington, D.C., it features six 10-minute motion comic episodes
illustrated and mostly narrated by Adams--best known for his dynamic
style and work on Batman and X-Men--and written by
Medoff, the Wyman Institute director and author of 14 books. The
episodes blend traditional animation and comic book-style illustrations
with newsreel footage, photographs, and historical documents.
The first episodes about Only five feet tall, Fiorello LaGuardia is considered to be
one of the greatest mayors of New York City. Beyond that, he was an American
who spoke out against Nazi oppression and hatred. Even when his sister, was
incarcerated by the Nazis, he would not back down. He knew what was right…and
what was wrong.
Mayor LaGuardia is only one of many people that spoke out
against Nazi racism and oppression.
A former First Lady who offered to personally care for German Jewish
children ... A young journalist who teamed up with an ex-wrestler and a
Unitarian minister to smuggle Jewish refugees to safety ... A Treasury
Department staffer who risked his career to blow the whistle on those who were
obstructing the rescue of Jewish refugees. These and other amazing stories shed
new light on one of the most troubling chapters in world history.
Written and researched by Rafael Medoff and drawn by Neal Adams, narrated
by Neal Adams and Stan Lee this series adds a detailed look into the people who
personally decided they would not allow this horror to go unnoticed. These men
and women are heroes in the truest sense of the word.
I can't wait to see EVERYBODY. I have a lot of New pieces that I have done like a
Thor/ Hercules cover for Marvel. A Galactus Cover, "Hunger" for Marvel. A Xmen cover
for Marvel. A (8) page Batman/Zombie story for DC all done in illustrative pencil. A Special project cover for Valiant. And my Walking Dead cover which we are selling prints and giclee's of at our
Booth.And of course I am here to sign everybody's comics so come on down and I promise we will have a great
time.
I am going to be on two panels in San Diego
Friday 1:00 to 2:00 Rm 4. They Spoke Out a Disney project that myself and Continuity worked on. Saturday 11:45 Rm 6BCF " Quick Draw" This is a must go to. I will be having fun with Sergio Aragones and Scott Shaw, two people most loved at the San Diego Comic con. I will be competing against the best at being funny and fast.

San Diego Pre-Order Fans
Dear LA,

London is calling.
Where do you go for the Fourth of July, Independence Day?
England , of course! .........At the airport, they asked me if I had something to declare?
"Independence,".. I declared ...."from England!!" They actually thought it was funny!
"What is your reason for coming to England?" They asked, politely.
"I'm a GUEST at the "London Film and Comic Con" I responded.
"IN-CREDIBLE! I'll see you there!" His eyes lit up!
London, will I see you all there , as well,...in spite of that little Revolution thingie-wingie?
I'm bringing sketches and drawings, and copies of the "Walking Dead" Con Special Comic.
How's that?? See you tomorrow.
Best
Neal
