A Prayer

Emerald City Comicon, we give you thanks for reminding us what tremendous nerds we are. Sometimes we forget the heights of nerdom to which we’ve ascended in this life.

Thanks be to KC Green, Scott Kurtz, Kris Straub, Evan Dahm, Gordon McAlpin, Aaron Diaz, Doug TenNapel, and the saintly patience of someone we assume to be Arthur Culang, for letting us awkwardly hobble around your booth without being visibly revolted by our barely suppressed hero-worship. Your art brings us joy — what more can we say?

See you all next year?

Thanks also to my friends for being huge nerds, themselves, and not making me feel like a complete social pariah for my passions.

Amen.
