See you at BENT-CON’s Costume Catwalk!

BENT-CON is quickly coming up, and what would a convention be, especially one produced by and for the LGBTQ community, without a little cosplay? Or a LOT of cosplay, as the case may be. Fanboys of the Universe will be sponsoring the Costume Catwalk at BENT-CON (Saturday, December 3, 4:00PM).

I’ve been asked to be one of the judges… along with Zan Christensen (Northwest Press) and Johnny M (Fanboys of the Universe). Brian Andersen (So Super Duper, Friend of Dorothy) will be steering the show.

From CAULDRON, to GHOSTBOY, to LOCUS, super sexy fans become their favorite CLASS COMICS characters! And the fabulous JOHNNY M rocks it as a very HAWT NAKED JUSTICE!

I know what you Class Comics Fans are capable of! I’ve seen a ton of you dressed up over the years as your favorite Class Comics characters, and I’m inviting you to go ALL OUT for this contest! Come as Ghostboy, come as Zahn, come as Locus… Heck, come as any character from pop culture you like, it doesn’t have to be someone from the Class Universe. LOL! If you’re planning on attending Bent-Con, you simply MUST enter the contest.

There’s gonna be some awesome prizes which are gonna be announced this week on the Fanboys of the Universe site! And just remember, BENT-CON is OUR con. It’s where LGBTQ fans and creators can let their hair down and celebrate what makes us unique… so come enjoy yourselves!

For more information or questions about the Costume Catwalk, please email info@fanboysoftheuniverse.com.

BENT-CON is being presented at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles, California, December 3-4, 2011 from 10:00PM to 6:00PM each day. Ticket pricing is available at bent-con.org (1-day pass: $10/person, 2-day pass: $20/person).

And remember. Robert Fraser and I will be at the Class Comics booth all weekend long. We’re really  looking forward to meeting you and seeing you there… whether you’re in costume or not! HA! HA! HA!  Drop by and say hello!

Hugz + kisses, Patrick XOXOX

STRIPSHOW the collection Official Cover Reveal!

Hello my friends.

For 2 years now, Class Comics Newsletter subscribers have been treated to the STRIPSHOW, monthly 1-page comics featuring all your favorite Boytoons with stories written by yours truly, and exquisite art by terrific artists like Leon de Leon, Jacob Mott and Eric Mars. Heck, I’ve even drawn a few myself! :D

I’m really pleased to announce that in 2012, you’ll be able to get your hands on STRIPSHOW: The Collection Volume 1. This is the official Printed Edition and Class Access Digital Edition of the first 2 years worth of Stripshow episodes.

STRIPSHOW: The Collection VOLUME 1 is coming 2012 from Class Comics. Cover art by Patrick Fillion.

So you may ask, “why buy something that you’ve been getting for free“? The answer is  simple. The STRIPSHOW Collection features strips that have never been released before and that are exclusive to this collection.  There’s cool new art to enjoy, including some gorgeous pin-up work by Leon de Leon.  I drew the cover for this collection, and I dare say, I’m pretty pleased with it! :D  Hernán Cabrera and I did the colors and I think it all turned out quite striking!

But most importantly, though the STRIPSHOW’s been available for free through the newsletter subscriptions and on the Class Comics website, it’s a question of resolution.  The free versions are pretty small, and the details don’t always pop the way they should.  In print and as a Class Access Digital Comic, the STRIPSHOW episodes will look AMAZING and you’ll be able to really appreciate all of the beautiful, intricate details that the artists who drew them poured into them.

And if you need any further reason, lemme just add that this is a truly GORGEOUS collection of comics, that is an intricate and essential part of the Class Comics universe and canon to all the character’s stories. Your Class Comics collection won’t be complete without it.

Stay tooned to this site and the Class Comics website for official release dates and further information. In the meantime, enjoy the sneak peek at the cover.

Hugz + kisses, Patrick XOXOX
