I can't wait to buy a poster of your creator owned work knowing that you will get most of the money. You earned it dude. It's an amazing time to read comics with guys like you, Marcos Martin, Samnee and Francavilla drawing them.

Speaking for myself now, I wish you all the best and can't wait to congratulate you in person the next time I see you at a show.
