24 Hours From Q-Town 2014: Hour 23: The End, Almost…

Hi Kids!

The final raffles went off and here are the winners:

Joey turned out to be a big winner, with a copy of The Submariner hardcover graphic novel from Lobo Anime & Comics, and a copy of Jeff’s former 24 Hour Comic, Nance & Cianu at the Park, when Jeff drew his own name. Joey was first to speak up, so Jeff gave it to him (and graced the cover with his autograph).

Hi Kids!

Here’s something you don’t see everyday, unless you’re in Albuquerque for The International Balloon Fiesta, that is…

05:46: Right about now, the folks are flocking to the International Balloon Fiesta. Ironic that I would post this picture three hours ago, before I took a little nap…

And whilst I was sleeping, Zach went and finished his comic, making him the

FIRST TO FINISH!

24 Hours From Q-Town 2014: Hour 12- Halfway There!

Hi Kids!

Here’s the field at midnight. It has thinned considerably…

Oh, and we had another raffle drawing and Eloy won a copy of Yesterday and maybe tomorrow too, cowritten by our own Jeff Benham. This a beautiful book. I call it visual poetry…

12EloyWins

And then we had another raffle and the strangest thing happened. We have two remote workers, Aliina, who has participated every year AND FINISHED! and Elizabeth, who is working with 3D animation tools and not a portable setup. Alas, Aliina is unable to attend due to illness, but she’s with us in spirit. So anyway, we drew two tickets for prizes from Comic Warehouse, both STAR WARS Annuals, and Aliina won the first one, and Elizabeth won the second one! What do you suppose the odds are THAT would happen? Here’s Jeff holding their prizes.

And so it goes…
