Michael Golden "SGH" at FX Show! --
Offers Special Art Print!
Orlando-- FX Show, "The Coolest Show on Earth" may not be taking place under a Big Top, but they sure are bringing out all three rings of excitement this year with an expanded guest list, more celebrities, and the announcement of artist/creator Michael Golden as the "Special Guest of Honor," at their gargantuan show April 17-19, 2009.
To commemorate Michael's return to Florida, FX Show is offering a limited Michael Golden art print for sale at the convention! The posters will be offered, at $15. each, and Golden will be on hand to sign them all individually for each collector!
About the FX "SGH": Golden has long been touted as one of the best storytellers in comics, influencing countless artists via his work on "The 'Nam," "Micronauts," "G.I. Joe Yearbook," "Batman," and "Dr. Strange, " among much more! In addition, Golden is the co-creator of Rogue from the X-Men, "Bucky O'Hare," and "Spartan X," as well as other popular properties.
His recent work can be seen in the last few years with covers on "Nightwing," "Iron Man," "Heroes for Hire," "Exiles," "Demon's Regret" and just this month on "Uncanny X-Men." In addition, Vanguard Productions recently released a Manga version of the "Bucky O'Hare" series, as well as the top selling art retrospective "Excess: The Art of Michael Golden," which sold out and went into a second printing. Also just released, from Woodcrest Productions and Eva Ink Productions, is a two disc DVD interview and tutorial with the artist on his career--"Creator Chronicles: Michael Golden," featuring commentary from Matt Wagner, Gail Simone, Aaron Lopresti, Chris Batista and other's talking about Michael and his influence on the industry. A must have for any Golden fan!
New on the horizon: This year will see the release of Michael's new sketchbook, "Dangerous Curves," from Eva Ink Publishing. A perfect match for last years sketchbook, "Heroes and Villains." The new volume is scheduled for debut at the San Diego Comic Con.
