ABOUT:
Born in Portland, Maine in 1962 Kevin Eastman began drawing at a
very young age, copying children’s books and reading comics.
Inspired by master storyteller Jack Kirby, and later by self publishing
creators Richard Corben, Vaughn Bode, and Dave Sim, all his early
work focused more on Science Fiction influences than traditional
Superhero style comics.
In 1982, while trying to sell some of his illustrations to local fanzines,
he met Peter Laird in Northampton, Massachusetts and the partnership
studio, Mirage Studios was formed. Less than a year later in the
middle of a late night drawing session, Eastman doodled a new
character he dubbed a “Ninja Turtle” to make Laird laugh—several
sillier sketches and a final drawing of four characters later “Eastman
and Laird’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” had officially entered the
universe!
Self published in May of 1984 the first issue sold out of its 3000
copies overnight and quickly became a fan favorite. Catching the eye
of Merchandising Agents and Hollywood Producers, Eastman and
Laird maintained full control of their creations while guiding them
through Toy Licensing, TV Series adaptation, as well as Feature Films,
and by 1989 the TMNT’s were number one in all three categories.
Thanks to “THE BEST FANS ON THE ENTIRE PLANET!” according
to Eastman, after 38 amazing years the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
STILL continue to find their way into the hearts and imaginations of
kids, large and small.
In between TMNT projects, Eastman created an artist friendly
publishing company, “Tundra Publishing” where projects like “The
Crow” “From Hell” and “American Splendor” first flourished, as well
as purchased and published the world renowned “Heavy Metal
Magazine.”
When not having way too much fun drawing the TMNT’s, he also
launched three new series in 2015/16; Fistful of Blood, Lost Angeles,
and Underwhere. In 2017/18 Kevin launched his first ever Kickstarter
that was fully funded for his new project Drawing Blood Comic and
the Radically Rearranged Ronin Ragdolls.
In 2020 Kevin launched The Last Ronin. An epic like you’ve never
seen before. It continued on to become the TMNT event of the year
decade and hit the charts as the Number 1 comic publication in the
USA. The series continues with the launch of The Lost Years in early
2023.
Kevin Eastman lives in San Diego with his wife Courtney, son Shane,
a few insane and thoroughly lovable Dachshunds, and two silly, bad
kitties.
In 2024 Kevin, Courtney and Team Eastman will be visiting several
comic conventions around the world, ensuring they are always
accessible and reaching out to fans. This is the 40th Anniversary of
TMNT and we are thrilled to Shellabrate with all the AWESOME
FANS!

BlankSpace Description:
BlankSpace Publications is a collective of artists, writers, and designers that focuses on narrative-driven media: stories that translate well to apps, digital/board games, YouTube videos, collectibles, interactive blogs, traditional books, etc. We do a little of everything—whatever interests us. Our reach is international but our main base of operation is in London, Ontario. Our newest project is a board game called Imp’s Quest, which is made in the pixel-art style of 8-bit RPGs of old. A fully playable prototype will be launched at London Comic-Con in 2024. We have also recently teamed up with a former Adult Swim actor (the “sit-on-you” guy) from the Tim and Eric Awesome Show to produce a YouTube video/song called Super Creep: The Movie. Other notable works include an adolescent graphic/horror novel called The Big Book of Nightmares and Childhood Fears (2013), another board game called Overhale (2021), and a ridiculous book called Willy Bum Bum: The Completely Unnecessary Book (2015), based on a viral YouTube video, and translated into five languages (with more to come!). See our stuff here: www.blankspacep.com.
Hot Hot off the press! We are thrilled to bring back Ting Alumnus Mazie Lovie for the London launch of her new Book: The Lucky Poor. “Mazie’s family has been offered a fantastic gift: their very own, brand-new house, built for them by Habitat for Humanity. But it’s a present that comes with a number of strings attached, and soon, they’ll learn just how many problems even a new home can’t fix.” Mazie will be joined by Kevin Dickins, Deputy City Manager Social and Health Development City of London who will bring a municipal perspective to the social and housing challenges facing our communities. Our conversation will be led by Abe Oudshoorn, Associate Professor and Associate Director (Graduate Programs) at The Arthur Labatt Family School of Nursing, Western University and the Arthur Labatt Family Chair in Nursing Leadership in Health Equity.off the press!

Taylor is an illustrator from Toronto(ish). Growing up on a strict diet of cartoons she had taken her love of visual storytelling throughout her life as an artist. After graduating from Sheridan’s Illustration program in 2022, she was grateful to begin her career in animation as a background artist on “Blue Clues & You!”. When she’s not painting, she’s hard at work growing a jungle in her bedroom and taking care of her army of tiny blue shrimp. Her booth will be stocked with paintings from her favourite shows (mostly anime) and video games as well as a collection of stickers and keychains to shop from. She’s also excited to debut some new pieces based off of Hazbin Hotel, Jujutsu Kaisen and more!
She will be sharing her booth with BadMangoz, a 2D artist and narrative designer in the video game industry!
