C2E2 - Friday




First day of the convention was AWESOME! The crowds have been pretty good, and over-all, people who've stopped by have been really cool. Here's a couple of pictures from the convention.
Anyone who comes by Saturday with a copy of Popgun Vol. 4 for me to sign will get a free copy of We've All Got the Same Guts.

I'm off, now, to get some authentic Chicago deep-dish pizza. Hope to see you tomorrow!

Popgun Vol. 4



Hamburgers for One, an original story I wrote and illustrated a while back, is going to be in print this February in Image Comics' Popgun Vol. 4.


There's a nice write-up on the Comic Book Resources website about the Popgun 4 anthology here.


The following is a quote about my story from the series editor, D.J. Kirkbride:
"'Hamburgers for One' is one of the centerpieces of the book," Kirkbride described of Stockton's contribution. "At 24 pages, it stands on its own and could be a one-shot. Frank has an amazing style, and this one surprised me after his very action-packed and humorous contribution to volume three, 'The Swordsman.' 'Hamburgers,' to me, is a great illustration of pacing. It's all very deliberate, and as a reader and writer myself, I learned a lot from it. A very subtle and interesting character piece with great visuals — Frank knocked it out of the park."

Read the entire article here.


Popgun is a XXL anthology of comics published by Image. It's a super-eclectic mix of different genres and stories that are calibrated to blow your mind. Volume 3 included my story "Swordsman MonsterSlayer: Monster Revenge." I highly recommend it.

Popgun Vol. 4 is available for purchase on February 24, 2010.

Best,

Frank
