Suggested several times on this forum : please welcome Barry Kitson. Barry Kitson's first professional work was Spider-Man for Marvel UK. He also drew many stories for 2000 AD, beginning with a Future Shock written by Peter Milligan and others by Grant Morrison, and going on to achieve great acclaim with his detailed work on Judge Anderson (written by Alan Grant). His first work for DC Comics was a Batgirl special issue followed by other work like a run on The Titans. In 2004, Kitson helped relaunch Legion of Super-Heroes for DC Comics and continued on it for two and a half years ending with issue #31. Kitson signed an exclusive contract with Marvel Comics in 2007, working on such titles as The Order, Secret Invasion: Fantastic Four, and currently The Amazing Spider-Man.   |

indeed a wonderful guest to add to the list. Can't wait till we here more details about how much he will ask and what kind of sketch/commissions he will do. But it's to soon for that, I know.

i hope to get a sketch/commission from him, but i think it will be hard. He takes allot of time of his work (what is good, so you have something really great), so maybe 7 or 8 drawings a day  |

Every time I've met him you just have to stay in line.
I've never had to pay for any drawing (I have 2) he has made.
You only have to wait a long time but like you see above you receive some incredible art.

Awesome, met him 2ice in the Netherlands, really takes his time with the fans and he doesn't even charge his drawings if you line up early enough and manage to get one. One of the nicest artists i've ever met.

UPDATE:
Barry will not be doing commissions prior to the show.
At the show he will provide fast free sketches every hour and longer free sketches/artpieces after that.
He will also be bringing along original art which ranges from 35 - 2000 depending on the piece.

Yes, this is a free sketch from him he did at Heroes Con 2007. Hopes he does the same kind of sketches at FACTS.  |

Doesn't do commissions prior to the show and only 1 sketch per person for the weekend.
What to ask him to draw for me? Been able to reduce it to 3 options.
