Baltimore Comic Con 2021: The story continues...
Rich Henn had facilitated for me on Friday of the show to have Joe Staton do a Scooby as Riddler. On Sunday Rich sent me a text. There was a problem, and in the words of Rich, "You are one lucky dog!"
Joe had forgotten which character he was supposed to draw and really got into Scooby as Joker. It was only after completing the sketch that he realized his mistake by checking his notes. Now most artist will chuck that off as a mistake and you deal with it. Not Joe, he is a true class act and just another reason why he is my favorite artist of all time.
Joe upon finding his mistake, started searching Baltimore comic con for a blank sketch cover similar to the type I had. I had the old Batman #0 blank so he picked up the newer Batman Detective #1 blank with the bats background. He then proceeded to do the requested sketch and when Rich went to pick it up, Joe shared he had made the mistake and there was no additional charges since it was his goof and I now had two full body sketches for the price of one.
Needless to say I was BEYOND excited and my reply was to please add it to my CGC submission. This is the one and only time that I will get 4 sketches by the same artist plus two remarques at one show.
