Autism Project

April update

2006-04-23T18:51:00.000-07:00

Well first of all, let me apologize for the lapse in updates tha past month. It's been a pretty crazy month 'round here!

I'd like to start by thanking Monica Moshenko for having me on here radio program Disability News & Reviews this evening. I've done quite a few interviews for websites and such but this was my first live one, hope I did alright!! If anyone missed it but would like to listen in, be sure to stop by Monica's website at:

http://www.disabilitynewsradio.com/

and click on the "Past Shows" menu and you'll be able to hear the interview.

New news on BOTS is that we are continuing to sell new copies. Since MegaCon, BOTS has made appearances at the NYC Con, The Portland Comic Book Show, Emerald City Con and The Atlanta Comic Book Convention. Upcoming appearances will be at Heroes Con in June in Charlotte, NC, Zine-a-palooza '06 in Duluth, GA this July and I'm going to try to make to Baltimore for Comicon in September.

Of course, you can always order one directly from us by going to our website at:

all of the information about ordering a copy via paypal or by mail is right there on the opening page.

A BOTS experience

2006-03-10T09:10:00.000-08:00

Trinidad Gutierrez is one of the contributing artists to BOTS (page 7) as well as a US soldier. When Trin sent me his picture for the book he was serving our country in Iraq. Thankfully he is now home safe and sound with his family. Trin posted this account on the Repercussion Comics forum and I wanted to share it with everyone.

Just thought I'd write about what happened to me the other day. For those of you who don't know me, I work for the US Army. I draw comics on my free time (what little bit there is). When I first saw that Nic was puting together this anthology, I asked if I could do a pic. Well, my pic is on page 7 (Art Soldier). I purchased my comp copy and four more copies that I was planning on givng away to families that have autistic children. My wife works with preschool aged children with different disabilities including autism. So, I gave her some signed copies to hand out to those families. Well, last night my family was at my sons' school (where my wife also works) attending a family reading night when a lady dressed in her military uniform comes up and starts talking to my wife. She asks if I was her husband and my wife said yes. With tears welling up in her eyes she leans down and gives ma a big hug and thanks me. It was then i noticed that she had a gold oak leaf on her collar. After my wife told me that she was one of the families that received a book, I consoled her about the book. She kept thanking me and the others for puting this book together. The significance of this being that I am an enlisted soldier (worker bee) and she is a Major (Officer). Yet at that moment it didn't matter. At that moment she was a mother with an autistic child and I was an artist who contributed time to bring awareness to a disease that has afflicted too many. I'm so proud to have been a part of this project. Thank you Nic.

Trin

Thank you Trin. Not only for participating in BOTS but for the job you do and the sacrafices you've made for this country. That is something that can never be repaid.

Just added

2006-03-08T18:01:00.000-08:00

I will be appearing next weekend March 18th and 19th at Momocon on the campus of Georgia Tech University. I'll have copies of BOTS plus some new prints from Portal Productions Studios.

Internet sales

2006-03-06T17:17:00.000-08:00

I wanted to let everyone know that BOTS continues to generate some nice internet sales. In the week following MegaCon, more than 20 books have been sold via the internet and we're getting hundreds of hits to the website.

Thanks!!!

BOTS artists making big moves!

2006-03-03T11:57:00.000-08:00

I wanted to post some news about a few of the contributing artists from BOTS who are now making some moves on some upcoming projects.

Kevin Conrad (page 80) will be taking over the inks for Teen Titans with penciller Tony Daniel.
Vincent Ciguentes (page 16) is now pencilling 10th Muse for Alias.

MegaCon pics

2006-03-01T06:43:00.000-08:00

Unfortunately, our camera was ruined by a wave of water from the Shamu show at Sea World on Friday, so I was not able to get any pics from MegaCon. However, Chris Meade from The Comics Review has a nice collection of pics (including 1 of me!) on his website. Follow the link to his homepage and click the MegaCon Photo Gallery banner to see them.

thanks Chris!

A touching message

2006-03-01T05:57:00.000-08:00

I got a letter yesterday from a young man in North Carolina. He had read one of the interviews I had done about the project and wanted to order a copy of BOTS. I was very moved when I read his letter so I wanted to share it here. I'll leave out his name to protect his anonimity. His letter reads...

"To the makers of BOTS,

I am a 23 year old man with Asperger's Syndrome. I say this because I would like Mr. Carcieri to know how much I appreciate his message of "letting people live their lives and raise their families as they choose". When I was diagnosed in 1994-and even afterwards-I never thought too much about what adults (teachers and the like) thought about my "differences". But, as my mother has told me in recent times, she had it suggested to her more than once by many of these people that she should try to stamp out many of my behaviors with punishment, or try to force me into social situations I wanted no part of. But she never did. She never tried to stop me from pacing, thinking out loud, etc... She let my life at home be just that, and is one of the major factors (maybe even THE MAIN) that led to me accepting who I am as an adult. So with the money enclosed, I would like to purchase a copy of BOTS and thank you for spreading the message."

When I began this project, I hoped to raise some awareness about Autism and some funds for the Autism Society of America. It's letters like that one that have made this project one of my proudest accomplishments.

thank you

MegaCon report

2006-02-28T10:31:00.000-08:00

Well MegaCon has come and gone, so I figured I'd post a report on everything that went on this weekend.

First the official business, we fell a little short of the goal for BOTS sales at the Con, I had hoped to sell 50 books over the weekend and only sold 40. But that is still nearly $400 for the Autism Society of America, so anyway you slice it, it is still a great thing! The response to the bopok was very positive, most of the purchasors (is that a word???) were in the 30 and older category. I think they appreciated the artwork more and were more interested in supporting the cause. Dan Head was able to sell 17 copies at the NYC Con (thanks Dan!) so with the internet sales to date, that is just over 150 copies so far! I am continuing to receive internet orders and have some approaching signing appearances at some local stores as well as The Portland Con and Emerald City that Randy will be attending and Heroes Con this summer, probably a few other things that will pop up.

Now the rest....

My Con weekend started on Wednesday, my wife Bonnie and I decided to leave Wednesday after Ben got out of school to split the 8 hour drive up into 2 4 hour stints. We stayed at an awful hotel in south Georgia!!! Oh well, it was a bed for the night!

We got into Orlando Thursday afternoon, Bonnie and Ben enjoyed a little swim and I was off to the airport to pick up Randy. A little detour to find an ATM led me to going the wrong way and having to make a big circle before finally arriving at the airport to meet Randy only seconds before his bag made it to the baggage claim! But I was not late, technically I arrived before he got his bag! Bonnie's parents John & Ev arrived late Thursday to hang out with Bonnie and Ben while Randy and I were at the Con, so Ben was in full on Grandparent mode!!!

Friday was the first day of the Con, Randy and I arrived and set up the table then started to walk around a bit. I met BOTS artist Rob Jones (page 37) completely by accident when I borrowed some tape from him, we also me Pat Carlucci (page 56) and Joe Pekar (page 24) that morning. Later in the day Chris Lie (page 59) and the SCADS posse arrived. Also saw many of my friends from previous cons, Nigel the Pirate, Jennie Breeden from the Devil's Panties, Marty and the guys from Gravy Boy, that's my favorite part about Cons is seeing all your Con-friends and meeting new ones!!

The crowd was pretty good on Friday, we sold quite a few copies of BOTS and Randy's prints and sketchbooks were flying off the table!!! Mark Pennington, the artist who had reserved the table next to us did not show up so we kind of spread our stuff out a bit over his spot. Our friends from the Repercussion boards Eric Dotson (page 21) and Lee Jiles, arrived in Orlando late in the afternoon, so we met up with them, Bonnie, Ben and Bonnie's parents for a nice dinner at TGI Fridays. Aftre dinner, Eric & Lee returned to their hotel and Bonnie, Randy & I attended a reception at the Coliseum of Comics store. There weren't that many people there but the beer was free!!!

Saturday was a lot more crowded than Friday and Mark Pennington was there on Saturday so we had to condense our table but we had another good day of sales, Randy was rolling in the benjamins from his prints!!! San from Onixian came stopped by and took about a million pictures!! I saw Rick from Across The Pond Studios who work with Chuck Dixon on The Iron Ghost. I spent a few moments talking to my idol Chuck Dixon after I stalked him a bit! Ha Ha Ha! He was very cool and signed a couple of books for me. I also attended a writers panel with Jimmy Palmiotti, Howard Chaykin and 2 other writers whose names escape me at the moment. It was a good discussion and I got some very useful information that I will hopefully put to use in my own writing. Saturday Eric and Lee also hung out with us, Eric even autographed a few copies of BOTS!!! But as the day drew on, they had to hit the road and head home. Saturday night we hung out in the hotle bar with Rob and Andy form Perfect Storm and another artist named Corey Evan Laub. We had a great time talking about comics, movies, baseball and all kinds of stuff. Very cool hanging out with those guys!

Sunday started slowly but after lunch business started to pick up and the day finished stronger than it began. Chris Lie drew me a fantastic pic of Nightwing. We packed up a little early on Sunday so we could get Randy to his hotel and we could hit the road for the 8 hour drive back home. We finally got home around 1:30 am.

All in all it was a very good time. It was our first visit to MegaCon and I hope not the last!

Yet another BOTS interview!

2006-02-20T10:38:00.000-08:00

The media onslaught continues!!! LOL! Many thanks to Guy LeCharles Gonzalez at Buzzscope. His own experience with autism has made him a very strong and vocal supporter of BOTS since the beginning! Guy was generous enough to be the first person to purchase an ad in BOTS and he has been rotating a BOTS banner on Buzzscope for several months. Now a new feature/interview with me about the project is appearing on his website at:

http://www.popcultureshock.com/features.php?id=1305

Please take a few moments and stop by. In addition to the BOTS piece, Buzzscope is a great place to get all the latest pop-culture, comics, games and anime news. If you've never visited before, be sure to make it a favorite!

Only 4 days until MegaCon!!! See you there!!!

BOTS update

2006-02-16T15:35:00.000-08:00

Well with 1 week to go until MegaCon, things are going pretty good for BOTS. I've been making the rounds of a few websites, doing some interviews to try to generate a little publicity for BOTS. I think it may be helping becuase I've gotten several orders for books over the past week.

The auction is coming along nicely but if anyone else wants to get their stuff to me, do it ASAP! I think if you mail it out by Saturday and use priority mail, it should get to me in time.

Here are a few links to some recent interviews and stuff....

BOTS IS HERE!!!

2006-02-10T10:24:00.000-08:00

Well, finally after much anticipation and thanks to the hard working folks at Dreamweaver Press and Fed Ex, 3 days ago, 8 boxes of BOTS appeared on my front porch! It is done and here! I have to say that it looks great and I could not be prouder! A big thanks to everyone involved! So now for some updates....

If you have already ordered your copy, it will be in the mail ASAP. If you have not yet ordered a copy, there are a few ways to get one.

1. Send $10 plus $3 shipping via paypal to portalcomics@hotmail.com or
2. Send a money order made out to Nic Carcieri to:

191 Summer POnd Trail
Lawrenceville, GA 30045

3. or you can come to one of the following cons:

MegaCon, Feb 24-26 in Orlando, FL
Randy "Rantz" Kintz and I will be there in artist alley, table # Black 9A. A number of other contributing artists will be appearing at MegaCon, some come and get your copies signed!

NYC Con Feb 24-26 in New York City
A good friend of Portal Productions, Dan Head, will have copies of BOTS at his Proletariet Comics booth #459. Also appearing at NYC will be contributing artists Kevin Conrad (at the Markosian booth) and Lesean Thomas (at the Buzzscope booth) so you'll have an opportunity for a few signings there as well.

Either way, get yourself a copy and help out some kids who really need it!

I can see the finish line!

2005-12-15T12:41:00.000-08:00

Well here we are, the last week for submissions. Brian and I should have BOTS wrapped up next week, then it'll be off to the printer! Thank you all for your time and effort. BOTS has turned out far greater than I ever could've hoped for!

Almost there!

2005-12-01T12:48:00.000-08:00

Well, we're getting very close to the end. If you have not got your artwork to me yet, just e-mail me at autismproject@gmail and let me know how it's coming. I have to say that the artwork has been fantastic! BOTS is going to be terrific! I've had a lot of new people get some stuff to me right here at the end, I have been trying to keep "The List" updated, I hope I have not left anyone off.

I want to say a special thanks to my friend Brian Colin who is helping me with the final layouts and putting everything together for the printer.

If you have already submitted your bot to me, but need my address to donate the pic to the auction, e-mail me and I'll send it to you. All the original artwork needs to get to me by February, in time for MegaCon.

thanks!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Purchasing Bots

2005-10-24T08:02:00.000-07:00

Recently, I've been getting a lot of questions regarding purchasing a copy of Bots. Bots will not be available until February of 2006, however starting November 1st, it will be possible to pre-order a copy. The cover price will be $10 with all the proceeds going to the Autism Society of America.

Contributing artists to Bots will be offered 1 copy at a 50% discount, for $5. Any other copies he or she would like would be at the full $10 cover price.

This is a not for profit project and the goal is to get as much money to the A.S.A. as possible.

Ad sales

2005-10-22T12:57:00.000-07:00

Ad sales within Bots is starting to pick up. Some participants like Rob Sturk from Ignium Studios http://www.igniumstudio.com/ and Joel Klampert from Rood Graphics http://www.roodgraphics.com/new_rood_site_002.htm. As well as publishers l;ike Repercussion Comics http://www.repercussioncomics.com/ and websites like Buzzscope http://www.buzzscope.com/ and retailers like Time Capsule Comics and Collectibles in Cranston, RI http://www.thetimecapsule.com/.

Remember, the money from the ad sales is going towards the production costs to ensure that all the money from the sales of Bots will go directly to the Autism Society of America.

If you are interested in purchasing an ad, they are priced at $40 for a full page black & white ad and $25 for a half page. There will be 500 copies of Bots printed.

Just some reminders

2005-10-17T11:44:00.000-07:00

I wanted to just remind you all of a few things...

Any artist who is going to need his or her pic inked by one of our participating inkers, I need your pencils by Halloween to allow for enough time.

If you would like to donate your original to the auction, let me know and I will send you my mailing address.

If you would like to purchase ad space within Bots, the prices are $40 for a full page black & white ad and $25 for a half page.

We are also selling 11X17, high gloss, on a nice card stock, Bots prints, signed by the artist Randy "Rantz" Kintz. The prints are $14 via paypal ($10 for the print and $4 for shipping) to portalcomics@hotmail.com

The money from the ad and print sales is going to help with the production costs. Anything leftover will be donated as well.

I still cannot get the picasso to work properly, I apologize for not being able to post the print here. if you have not seen it posted on any of the threads where the project has been listed, e-mail me at autismproject@gmail.com and I'll send it to you.

Artwork is starting to come in. To date I've collected nearly 30 pices and they look great! This si going to be an excellent collection! Thanks so much to everyone!

Bots tops 70 artists!

2005-10-13T09:20:00.000-07:00

With the addition of 9 more artists this morning, the list of participants is now up to 75 contributors! Tommy Castillo, who has worked on Batman and Evil Ernie. Craig Rousseau, whose credits for DC include Impulse, Flash, Young Justice, JLA Adventures. Tom Feister has inked such books as Ex Machina, Iron Man, JLA Adventures and GI Joe Frontline. EJ Su has worked on Transformers: Infiltration and Superpatriot: WOT. Jennie Breeden from The Devil's Panties. As well as artists Pedro Delgado, Matt Synowicz, Adam Frizzell and Julio Molina Muscara.

I've also been getting questions regarding the plan for Bots' release. Well here it is, the plan is to collect all the artwork by the end of the year and debut Bots at Mega Con in Orlando, FL February 24-26, 2006. So mark your calendars!
