An MW-ISB Crossover Event!

So I spent a good portion of my day Saturday upholding my annual tradition of attending Heroes Con with some friends. I wouldn't mention it, except for the fact that I had the opportunity to meet CrayonMaster Extraordinaire Chris Sims there, and he drew me this kickass picture of Captain America crying:


It's the ice cream cone that really makes it, I think.

Why did I want to meet Chris Sims at Heroes Con? Well, in addition to actually meeting someone else who writes for the CRACKED magazine in person, and his having an awesomely hilarious comics blog, he also brings stuff like this out of me, from an e-mail discussion about a team-up between his character Solomon Stone and me, after I've changed my name to Gruffman Glasschewer:

We'd have all kinds of action hero banter. Like, he'd say, "Stay close. We've only got one chance at this." And I'd say something like, "Lock and load." And then we'd gun down a whole bunch of crocodile ninjas while balancing on the underside of an upside-down motorboat that's speeding toward a waterfall that feeds into a pit full of spinning saw blades. Also, there's a dragon in there.

Rock on, Sims.

Also of note about Heroes Con: I managed to get my picture taken with a character I lovingly referred to as Overweight Supergirl throughout the day's proceedings. If my friend Shawn sends me the picture, I'll post it.
