NYCC – Christopher Jones Comic Art and Illustration Blog http://blog.christopherjonesart.com Fri, 29 Sep 2023 02:09:34 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.3 42733131 Reserve your print before NYCC! http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/reserve-your-print-before-nycc/ http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/reserve-your-print-before-nycc/#respond Fri, 29 Sep 2023 00:39:41 +0000 https://blog.christopherjonesart.com/?p=9926

I’ve done so many print designs that I can’t bring them all with me to conventions. If you’re coming to see me at New York Comic Con 2023 (ArtistsAlley table A-14) I’ll be selling 11×17 color prints for $20 or 3 for $50 – but I’ll have a limited selection. I want to bring a variety of Young Justice prints, Doctor Who prints, my new Harley Quinn print, plus favorites like Justice League and Svengoolie. But that quickly adds up to more than I can haul with me on my cross-country trek from Los Angeles to New York. So in my attempt to streamline my convention operations, I’ll going to be limited the number selection of prints I’ll be bringing with me, which means I might just leave your favorite design behind. UNLESS – you reserve your print in advance!

Please check out www.etsy.com/shop/ChrisJonesArt to see the full selection of prints I have available. You can order them directly from there, but if you’re coming to NYCC 2023 and want to buy it from in person at the lower convention rate, you can reserve any print from my archive I’ll bring a copy to NYCC and hold it for you!

Message me at chris@christopherjonesart.com. Let me know:

1) What print(s) you’d like to reserve for NYCC
2) Your name
3) and (if possible) What day you expect to stop by Artist Alley Table A-14 and pick it up.

I’ll have your reserved print(s) waiting for you at my table for you to purchase at my convention rates!

This is a first-time experiment I’m trying as a way to deal with the size of my selection of prints becoming a little unmanageable, but I don’t want to disappoint fans who come to my table looking for prints they’ve seen in past years or online. We’ll see how it goes!

New Harley Quinn print for NYCC! http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/new-harley-quinn-print-for-nycc/ http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/new-harley-quinn-print-for-nycc/#respond Thu, 28 Sep 2023 10:55:02 +0000 https://blog.christopherjonesart.com/?p=9921 As New York Comic Con approaches, it occurred to me what I wanted to go in with *at least* one new print. And while I had a number of Young Justice prints to offer, I had nothing connected to my work on the Harley Quinn animated series, which has been my day job for more than two years now.

Years ago when I was drawing The Batman Strikes (tie-in comics for the 2004 The Batman animated series) one of my favorite covers I did on that title happened to feature Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, so I decided to remake that cover in the style of the current Harley Quinn animated series and make that my newest 11″x17″ color print. After NYCC this will be added to the prints available in my Etsy store, but it will make its debut at this year’s New York Comic Con. Like my other prints it will be available at my convention rate of $20, or 3 prints for $50.

Harley Quinn - Check Please

Here’s the original Batman Strikes cover for reference.

The Batman Strikes 41

Find me at table A-14 in the NYCC 2023 Artist Alley for this print and many other favorites. Read more about my presence at NYCC 2023 here.

Christopher Jones at NYCC 2019! http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/christopher-jones-at-nycc-2019/ http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/christopher-jones-at-nycc-2019/#respond Tue, 01 Oct 2019 08:05:31 +0000 http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/?p=9821

I am delighted to be returning again this year to New York Comic Con, October 3-6 at the Javits Center in the heart of Manhattan. This year, NYCC Artist Alley will be returning to Hall 1B on the 1st Floor of the building, and I’ll at Artist Alley table B-10 all four days. Artist Alley hours are as follows:

Thursday 10am – 8pm
Friday 10am – 8pm
Saturday 10am – 8pm
Sunday 10am – 5pm

I was too busy to other deadlines to solicit commission sketches in advance of the con, but will ABSOLUTELY be doing sketches there. My sketch list fills up FAST, so if you want a sketch from me during the convention, I recommend seeking me out and getting in my list as early as possible!

And in case you don’t read all the way to the end of this long post, remember: I love chatting with fans, and autographs and photos are always free!

Svengoolie Meets the DC Universe

Have you heard about Svengoolie Meets the DC Universe? The 8-page epic has the Me-TV horror host meeting the Justice League and a certain Clown Prince of Crime, and will be serialized in 2-page chapters inserted into DC Comics starting October 16, with a the whole thing collected into a comic that Svengoolie will have at signings and appearances as he celebrates his 40th Anniversary. And I drew it! I’ll be doing a signing with Svengoolie himself at the DC Comics Booth on Friday from 12:30pm – 1:30pm, just before the DC Presents Svengoolie panel from 2:45pm – 3:45pm, in room 1A06.

I have a new FREE convention exclusive mini-print for Facebook and Twitter followers!

Wonder Woman Flying her invisible jet mini-print

Just show me that you follow me on twitter or like my facebook page to claim yours! And I’ll still have a limited supply of the ever popular Fastest Man Alive Flash mini-prints, Disco Nightwing mini-prints, and Batman buttons free for followers if you would rather pick up one of those. Remember, these are convention-exclusive freebies. The only way to get one of these items to find me at a convention!

Showing all 3 mini-prints and button

Young Justice Fans! On Saturday at 8:20pm EST (after Artists Alley closes) we will have a Young Justice cosplay & fan meet-up! So come join me and fellow fans for a casual meet-up of cosplayers and fans of Young Justice at New York Comic Con! We may not have a panel at NYCC, but Young Justice fandom is alive and well, and I hope to see a lot of you there.

You may also want to join the NYCC 2015 Young Justice Meet-Up Facebook Event.

I will be doing commission sketches during New York Comic Con, but I expect my sketch list to fill up FAST, so if you’re hoping to get a sketch from me, try to stop by my Artist Alley table as early as possible.

All of my convention sketches are black ink on 9×12″ bristol. I will also draw on sketch covers and in sketchbooks, and on …other things… by request. Payment due when you pick up the completed sketch.

If you would like to send me your NYCC sketch request ahead of time, putting you first on my list, please email it to chris@christopherjonesart.com with the subject, “NYCC SKETCH REQUEST”.

I will also have all of my prints available during New York Comic Con, at the usual reduced convention prices:

11×17″ Color Prints: $20 each or 3 for $50

8.5″x11″ Color Prints:  $10 each

8.5″x11″ Black & White Prints:  $5 each

You can see my selection of prints in My Etsy Store. Here are all the new prints I have since last year’s New York Comic Con:
Justice League art print by Christopher Jones

I did this Justice League print to commemorate the Justice League Reunion at New York Comic Con this year. Find more information about that HERE.

Bat Wolf Art Print

Mostly I love drawing Batman’s cape draped over stuff. But also, Doctor Who. Am I right?

The Sixth Doctor - REV prev Doctor Who - Hartnell Color prev

I also created a small 6th Doctor print, and updated my small 1st Doctor print with a splash of color.

Go Team Batgirl!

Who can choose just one Batgirl? Not me.

Svengoolie - Framed prev

This was a piece of art I did in homage to late night horror host, Svengoolie, of whom I’m a big fan. I was able to gift a copy to him at C2E2 eatlier this year, and the print can now be seen hanging on the set. I nerd out about that a lot. If it’s your thing, you can learn more about it HERE.

11242897_10152759523481372_1437973553_o Nightwing's Butt WonderBat Print prev

I drew all of those because reasons. Also, here are some new Young Justice black & white prints:

Young Justice - Superboy prev Aqualad print - prev Miss Martian print- prev

And lastly, because I kept getting requests for this, I finally made some prints out of that Gargoyles mashup art I did for CONvergence 2014. Goliath as Nightwing and Demona as (badass) Counselor Troi.

Goliath as Nightwing prevDemona as Troi prev

Again, you can find a full selection of my prints, including more Young Justice and Doctor Who prints, on my Etsy store.

Also, because con food is expensive and I know a lot of my fans are at the con on a budget, I’ll have granola bars available at my table for anyone who asks for one. That’s right – free, healthy(ish) snacks! And definitely NOT engineered by the Reach or Lexcorp, if you were concerned. While supplies last.

New this year, I will also have a cosplay repair kit with sewing stuff, different sorts of tape, contact cement, and other misc. cosplay repair items. Just ask if you need to use it.

Lastly, just to cover a few other questions I often get on twitter:

  • Autographs are always free and I’ll sign anything you bring me. (Check out my guide to asking for signatures and drawings at conventions!)
  • I do not charge for photos and I am happy to take a photo with anyone who asks!
  • I’m happy to do interviews, podcasts, snippets, goofy stuff, and whatever any day but Sunday, but the earlier you can drop by, the better!
  • I will draw any cannon character ship kissing if asked. I will draw any two characters together doing non-romantic/sexual things, regardless of whether it’s cannon or not.

I think that about wraps up my New York Comic Con post. Whew! I really am looking forward to meeting lots of fans over the four days of the con! Come say hello! Marvel at the new Steven Universe t-shirt I just got. Sing a duet with me. Get some free candy. Buy some art. Artist Alley table D9! See you there!

Justice League Reunion at New York Comic Con 2015 http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/jlnycc/ http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/jlnycc/#respond Wed, 23 Sep 2015 15:45:32 +0000 http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/?p=5573 DCAU FANS! If you’re going to New York Comic Con, this is your year!!!!! There is a Justice League Animated Series reunion happening! The voice talent behind the series will be doing a panel, including A LIVE TABLE READ, and they will all be meeting fans and signing autographs for the duration of the convention!

Justice League Reunion at NYCC 2015 Informational Graphic

If this doesn’t get you excited, I’m not sure what’s wrong with you.

Oh, also, I made a new art print to mark the occasion.

Anyway, without further adieu, here’s everything you need to know about the New York Comic Con 2015 Justice League Reunion!

 

Twitter

You’ll want to follow the Twitter account @JLReunion for up-to-the-minute coverage, not to mention Justice League fun stuff leading up to and during the NYCC 2015 Justice League reunion!

Also, follow and tweet under the hashtag #JLNYCC for everything Justice League Reunion related! (Don’t forget to also add the official New York Comic Con hashtag, #NYCC!)

Oh, and make sure you’re following the voice cast while you’re at it! Their Twitter handles are @georgenewbern, @Maria_CB@phillamarr@RealKevinConroy, and @susaneisenberg1.

 

Reunion Panel

The Adventure Continues: A Justice League Reunion Event – Fri. October 9, 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM, Empire Stage 1-E

The league is back! For the first time in over a decade, the founding members of the acclaimed series Justice League will reunite at NYCC! Join Batman (Kevin Conroy), Wonder Woman (Susan Eisenberg), Superman (George Newbern), Green Lantern (Phil LaMarr), Hawkgirl (Maria Canals-Barrera), Martian Manhunter (Carl Lumbly) and legendary Voice Director Andrea Romano as they reminisce about their fondest memories from the show, answer questions from the Fans, perform a live table read from an original JL script and more. The Watchtower is calling – we’ll see you there!

 

Justice League Art Print

Wonder Woman voice actress Susan Eisenberg asked me on Twitter if I’d be interested in creating an art print to mark the occasion of the New York Comic Con 2015 Justice League Reunion. I don’t think I can quite communicate to you the enthusiasm with which I immediately began sketching. You see, that I drew a handful of Justice League Adventures comics is almost irrelevant next to what a MASSIVE FANBOY I am about the Justice League animated series. So, creating this art was a huge honor. I hope you like it, and that if you do, you take home a copy for yourself.

Justice League art print by Christopher Jones

I’ll have it available all 4 days (or until I run out!) at the usual convention price of $20. After the convention, it will join the rest of my prints on my Etsy store for $30. You’ll find me at New York Comic Con Artist Alley table D9. Here’s a map:

This is my third year at New York Comic Con and I can’t tell you how much it’s become one of my very favorite conventions.

This year I will have a very talented friend and cosplay personality at my booth helping out, signing autographs and taking photos, so make sure you stop by to say hello to Mr. J! He may even have something special for kids – what a clown! Here are a few photos:
