Mayhem in the Middle Kingdoms

New York Comic Convention, (frequently referred to as NY-Comicon or NYCC) is the perennially-massive gathering of comic fans, authors, artists, publishers, distributors, etc. in New York City. The event is happening April 18th through April 20th, 2008. Why is this information being posted here? Mark Smylie, creator of the Artesia series and Artesia: Adventures in the Known World Roleplaying Game will be in attendance, promoting both his company (ASP) and his comic book (Artesia: Besieged). If you live anywhere north of Georgia on the Eastern seaboard, now is your chance to meet the man behind the magic of Artesia and Artesia: Adventures in the Known World.

In an e-mail received today, Robb, sales director of Cosmic Therapy, let me know that:

Hi Brendan,

I discovered that our map sets are incomplete and am awaiting copies of the missing map before posting availability. Thanks for your patience!

I replied:

Dear Robb,

I understand the wait, but is there any chance of some sort of timeline? Not to be fussy, but its been month(s) technically.

Robb replied, earning a point or two of cool:

I promise you that nobody wants to buy this stuff as much as I would like to sell it ;)

The moment the other posters come in, I will send out an e-mail making the set available for purchase. We’re almost there!

What does this all mean? It means that someone needs to send someone something so that interested consumers can purchase these map sets.

From the front page of artesiaonline.com:

“…Mark is looking to clear some space in his flat files. So from now until the end of March, the remaining original art pages from the first three ARTESIA series are available for the low price of $50 a page.”

No list of remaining pieces is available, so interested parties will have to follow the announcement’s advice and contact Mr. Smylie directly by clicking here.

$50.00 dollars seems like a lot of money, but for the true Artesia fan, such an opportunity might be irresistible.
