This past weekend was a real treat for fans in the Raleigh, NC area — several of the creative minds behind Saturday Wars assembled like the Super Friends for an unforgettable book signing across two Ultimate Comics locations.
Oh, and did we mention it was also opening weekend for Supaman?
Fans got to meet the powerhouse trio of Sweet Tooth Eddy, Whyt Manga, and Frederick L. Jones, who came together to sign books, chat with fans, and give away some awesome swag — including bookmarks, trading cards, and exclusive prints with every book purchase.
Here’s what the team had to say about their experience at Ultimate Comics and their journey working on Saturday Wars:
“North Carolina readers were great and very welcoming! It was a pleasure to sign the books of new readers as well as those who brought their copies to the event.”
– Whyt Manga“Whatup whatup! Hope you all enjoy Saturday Wars. Sheesh, what a trip! One minute I’m chillin’, the next I’m drawing all of Saturday AM’s biggest characters in a multiverse crossover! It was a blast to hop in — especially getting to use my new 3D skills to speed things up.
I do wish we had more time, but deadlines are deadlines. It was actually lowkey fun to push myself and still keep the quality high. Learned a lot. From reading Garfield comics as a kid to becoming a published manga artist — wild!
Artists out there: don’t wait too long thinking you’ve gotta be perfect. Get on the grind and grow along the way. Oh — and save your files! Backup everything! Take care of your body too. Happy body, happy mind, more productivity.
Aight, I’m out. Peace!!”
– Sweet Tooth Eddy
