I met my cartoonist / comic strip / comic art hero Bill Amend of Fox Trot last Sunday at PAX East. I knew I had a mission when I saw his tweet in my feed the day before the show:
If you’re at #PaxEast2017 I have two #PinnyArcade pins avail at my table near the main entrance… pic.twitter.com/3fLTP4ETZM

It was the only thing I was looking forward to at PAX East to be honest. And there he was, sitting at his table as I made it past the metal detectors and security.
I picked up one of the two pins he was selling – Quincy for the win! Of course, I asked him to sign it for me.
I told him how much I loved his work and how much he’s inspired my comic work. Right afterward, I ran away ‘cuz that’s how I do.
