I am going through my collection because I need to sell off a few items right away. I'm having a dilemma though (other than the pain of giving up ANY piece from my collection)...what are collectors looking for?


So I'm turning to my fellow gaAngsters. What items do you think fans/collectors are searching for? I have a dozen items in mind, but I want more opinions

Then allow me to pimp our beloved Johane Matte:

Message from rufftoon:

If you are in Montreal during those dates, come and celebrate the release of the french version (and in COLORS!) of the first issue of Horus.

This book previously only existed in English and in B&W, drawn over 4 years ago. I barely have any copies left of this version.
(mental kick in the butt: gotta draw book 2)

I'll be doing signings, along with colorist Saymone Phanekam, on these two days:

Friday, Oct. 2nd at Librairie Fichtre, 436 de Bienville, from 7pm to 9pm

Saturday, Oct. 3rd at Librairie Planete BD, 3883 St-Denis, from 2pm to 4pm

If anyone makes it to these signings, I want to see photos

Hey gAangsters ~

I just checked my email and many gAangsters sent me random love, and a note here and there about Avatarlegacy's ATLA fan panels..."What is going on with the Avatar fan panels? Will there be another one? Will you host contests? Do you need help with future panels?"

First, I'll be a little honest with you all...I am CRAZY busy right now. I am currently job hunting and doing my real world "_Mom" gig full time. In between, I have been helping the Chicago Fire Department's 24 Hours of Lemons race team (which my husband is a member) get ready for their next race in Garrettsville Ohio.

Also, its Science Fair Season in this part of the world. Currently, I am assisting two science loving minds as they improve their skills using the scientific method. Plus, nerdiness on this level is delightful. I can't even explain the ginormous glee I feel helping someone research and test a hypothesis

So, when will there be any ATLA fan panel news? SOON! My Avatarlegacy team is waiting on me too (you darlings that emailed me are not the only ones), and for that, I am sorry.

Also, I am aware that some of you still have not received ASN t shirts. This is crazy, and I will once again blame the evil that is the Chicago Post Office. I have a handful of T shirts left, that I could resend, but the sizes might not work for you. Drop me an email if you still haven't received a t shirt and remind me of your size. If I can accommodate the request, I'll send you another one. I still have ASN buttons (tiny one inch badges) that I would like to spread around. If you want one or two, contact me here or email gaangster@sbcglobal.net. Put something very Avatarish in the subject line, and I'll be sure to tell you what you need to do to get a free button from me. They are hand made and nothing fancy, so don't expect some epic example of fan craftiness. Its just a logo on a button

There are some special things that have not made their way across the ocean yet, but I haven't forgotten about you. When I come back from Ohio (early October) they will be shipped out. Until then, please accept my humble (yet lame) apologies, and keep sending random emails and hellos, I really love them!

Keep checking out The Artrix's Avatar Month updates to his gallery. He created the popular AU Inspector Iroh universe that became popular on Avatarspirit.net. He turned the concept into a "round robin" styled comic and involved all levels of fan.

<===visit him, he has fan artz

Hey gAangsters,

The creator of the awesome AU Inspector Iroh will be updating his DeviantART with Avatar fan art for the month of September. Many Avatar fans from Avatarspirit.net love his art and what he was able to inspire in other Avatar loving artists through Inspector Iroh. Those that watch him here on deviantART, check his gallery often this month to see his latest offerings. If you are not watching him then you should be!

For a wee bit more information about his Avatar Month plans, check out his recent journal and then head on over to his gallery

So, I'm a pretty big TMBG fan. They are so quirky and intelligent, I can't help it really. They have been putting out some excellent music for the younglings in recent years, and they just released their new album, "Here Comes Science".

One of the songs "Meet the Elements" is on youtube and is just as fun as what you would expect from John Linnel and John Flansburgh.

The whole thing makes me happy, and I love passing anything like that along in case it sparks some happy in someone else as well



Notice that they sing, "Everything is made up of 4 elements" ...heheh gAangsters... "carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen".


Take care gAangsters.....psst...Elephants are made of elements
