Happy Pi Day From CollectingCandy.com!

Posted on March 14, 2013 by Jason Liebig

Today is March 14th or 3/14, so it’s International Pi Day!  Pi Day is the celebration of mathematics (or 3.14… the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter).   But here at CollectingCandy.com, we figured we could best mark the day … Continue reading →

    NYCC26 Day Two!! Highlight of highlights, my dea NYCC26 Day Two!! 

Highlight of highlights, my dear friend (and Wonder Woman fan) Dr. Jessica Krant @drkranttheskinmd joined me at the convention for a good bit of walking and talking. We’ve been friends for thirty years and she is one of my most valued inner circle of chosen family. ❤️

Back to my pal John Bellotti Jr, founder of @roboseven - on day two I hung out at his booth, caught up and absconded away (okay, I paid first) with stickers and a t-shirt!

A @roboseven jam. It’s been so great to watch John do the entrepreneurial work and not only create but continue to build RoboSeven.

What can I say, I love myself some stickers. 🤩

So @KaareAndrews was this passionate and talented kid just breaking into comics when I was an X-Men editor and met him 30 years ago. 

Kaare was a personable, bright kid but it was clear even then that this dude had talent. Still, I couldn’t have imagined how far he’d go. Kaare took his talent and kept growing and improving upon it, making a name for himself in film and television (as a creator, director and producer) along with becoming a fan favorite comic artist, contributing to some of the biggest books of the last decade. It’s the kind of success that comes from being the very best out there, and a drive to never rest on your laurels. 

It’s thrilling to see all the great things he’s done. And I’m such a fan of all of it.

Both days I was at the show, Kaare had a LONG line of fans waiting to meet him and get his autograph, but he graciously stepped out for a quick catch up and obligatory selfie.

It was also lovely to catch up with the talented Chris Sotomayor @sotocolor - a brilliantly talented colorist and artist. 

I met Chris thirty years ago when I was an X-Men editor-  but something he reminded me of this week was that I gave him his first big break. 🤯 And since that job, Chris has been working consistently for three decades. 

Hearing that story was so wonderful and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. I gotta say, it’s awfully nice to be reminded that I did some good for someone when I was in that office. Oftentimes my memories of that period can be more about the challenges - but knowing I helped a ridiculously t
