I AM SPEECHLESS!

There's little I can say with the few monosyllabic words that were left in my head after what happened blew my mind. On his latest e-mail Sal Abbinanti, Alex Ross' art dealer, his model for Shazam and writer/artist of the awesome indie comic, Atomika, told me he'd send me some swag for all the hard work I'm doing on this site and because he's a really cool guy. I thought I'd get t-shirt and such but, oh no. Sal went above and beyond. He sent me what you see in the photo, The Absolute Justice hardcover, the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con sketchbook and that kick-ass letter, which you can see below. Awesome!

Thanks Sal, you're truly a class act!



Don't expect any more updates this week, I'll be recuperating from the shock I had when I received these presents. My doctor said to take it easy or I'll have a heart attack. LOL, just kidding!

Felicitaciones, de verdad que es un sitio muy util para el fan y para aquel que recien conoce el arte de Ross.
Como ellos dicen, sigue asi, porque nosotros tambien lo esperamos dia tras dia. Y felicitaciones por tu coleccion tan memorable.

Wow Andres,

That's awesome. The signature and note on personalized stationary is icing on the cake. What a nice gesture. That's a "keeper"!!!

Regards
