\u00a0So here is a funny story about the previous zombie portrait – which is of a zombie version of my friend, Anthony Leano (writer and publisher of the comic, “Brains”).<\/p>\n

Anthony went on a trip, and when he got back, he emailed me with the heading, “Your pin-up saved me from going to jail!” In his own words (edited and pieced together from Facebook posts to suit my chronological and storytelling designs):<\/p>\n

“Had an awesome time in Seattle this weekend @ Emerald City Comicon …<\/span> ran into a string of good luck the whole trip. Until I got pulled over for driving 5-10 above the speed limit … <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“<\/span>…We were on the side of the highway in a town of 4000 people, for about an hour…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“…Got tossed into the back of the police car for not having my I.D., almost went t<\/span>o jail… <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“…The cop took pictures of Shawna, Paul Allen and me. Pictures of my tattoos and he fingerprinted me … He was using a camera that was broken with dead batteries he had to swap out and tape together…<\/span><\/p>\n

[Anthony didn’t have his identification with him] “<\/span>… after an hour of us trying to prove who I was <\/span>… I [finally convinced the police officer] by showing him a drawing of me as a zombie that Chris Wisnia drew. It was a pin up for my comic book BrAiNs issue number two. <\/span>”<\/p>\n

Pretty great. I feel like I’ve really done my part to help a friend in need. Here’s my pin-up of Paul Allen, artist for the above-mentioned “Brains #2” issue (hope it can help equally well, Paul):<\/p>\n
