Both Red’s Planet and Cleopatra in Space have been nominated for 2010 Webcomic List Awards. Red’s Planet for Best Comic and Best New Comic. And Cleopatra in Space for Best Character (Cleo).
The full list of nominees can be read HERE.
The winners will be announced in an online illustrated ceremony on January 31st.
The first print collection of Cleopatra in Space came out last week and as a special bonus to readers, my fellow Spacedock 7 crewmates each [graciously] drew a pinup for the book. I thought it’d be fun to share them all here for you, presented together for the first time (besides in the book of course).

Unfortunately Otis Frampton was unable to draw a pin-up since he was driving cross-country at the time. But don’t worry, I’ll get him next time!
You can purchase a copy of Cleopatra in Spaaace! in the Cow Shell Graphics Store.
Both Katie Cook and Mike Maihack will be at San Diego Comic-Con this week, and you’ll be able to find them on opposite ends of the imperial cruiser sized convention hall floor.
Katie will be in in ARTISTS’ ALLEY, table GG-02. DETAILS HERE.
Mike will be in SMALL PRESS, table N-05. DETAILS HERE.
Here are some maps!
Cleopatra in Space’s first printed collection will debut at the show, featuring pin-ups from five of the SD7 crew. Katie will have a brand new mini-comic featuring her cat and some naughty language.
Well, four of us will be at least. Joel Carroll, Grant Gould, Otis Frampton and Mike Maihack will all have individual tables spread out around the con. To make it easier to find us, here’s a spiffy map:
Mike and Otis have also donated art to Heroes’ annual art auction, which helps fund the show and maintain its awesomeness.

Mike’s Cleopatra in Space auction piece:
Limited ed prints of the above Cleo art will also be available at Mike’s table.
We are super excited about this weekend and hope to see a lot of you there! HeroesCon is June 4-6, Charlotte Convention Center.
We are proud to announce the launch of Spacedock 7, a science fiction webcomic portal!
