Captain Action at New York Comicon!

[The Kryptonite Kid]

Hey Gang,
Just wanted to provide a little tidbit of info i just found out about the upcoming New York Comicon (April 18-20th) in New York City. Designer of the original package art for Captain Action (Murph Anderson) will be in attendance, located at the Captain Action booth (#1862) in the Jacob Javits Center. He will be signing autographs, along with the other creators on hand, signing copies of the upcoming Captain Action comic. Thought I would post this here since we are looking forward to Cast-A-Ways upcoming Cap Action figure line. Hope to see ya' there :wink:

Wow, I'd love to meet Murphy Anderson. One of comic's greatest draftsmen. And for Mego fans, he provided countless licensing art of the DC heroes, many useed by Mego on their packaging. It is an honor and a privilege to be doing the art and package design for Cast-A-Ways CA line. I am truly not worthy to follow in this man's foot steps!

Holy Captain Action! Do they look good!

[EMCE Hammer]

Can I see them naked please?

[Earth 2 Chris]

I'm a bit biased, but as a fanboy I must say David and Jason have perfectly combined CA and Mego, and made some improvements along the way! I am totally stoked for these!

Let's give props to Murphy Anderson for which THIS THREAD is really and originally about. Murphy Anderson is really a great man to meet. Met him at the Big Apple Comic Con. He signed every copy of Hawkman that I brought for him to autograph. Very genuine and courteous to the fans. To me he will always be Mr. HAWKMAN. If you see him at the show go over and say hi and ask for an autograph...you won't regret it.

It makes me angry when I see all the new artists get these praises for not even being able to draw a "Normal" human body...Murph is in his 60's/70's and can draw rings around these newbies. Maybe I might get him to sketch me a Hawkman if I have enough time.

[Blue Meanie]

BTW, Nice Captain Action figures too.

Thank you so very much Castaway guys. Those look great, love the DR.s accessories.

[The Kryptonite Kid]

Freakin' sweet figures! I can't wait to see them at the con :drool_y: And I really hope to meet Mr. Anderson. Also, thank you so much Castaway crew, they both look great and I'm sure they'll be a hit. -Will

They look great! Are they all factory made and are they on the new Castaway body?

[misterdroid]

Those figures are incredible! I am stoked! Is there an approximate release date?

[David Lee]

Can I see them naked please?

Not without dinner and movie first!:silly:

But seriously, no...

These are stand in vintage bodies, We hope to have the actual bodies for the Comic con...
