Got a package today that I wasn't expecting. It's this years DC Comics holiday gift. Every year during the holidays this time, DC Comics sends out something different. In past years since I started freelancing for them, there were messenger bags, gym bags, backpacks, portfolios, watches, desktop clocks, playing cards, flash drives, and more. All of which had the DC comic logo or the name "DC COMICS"on it. It's always a nice surprise to get these holiday gift. This year, it was a moleskin sketchbook. When I got the package, i unwrapped it to see this nice black box with the DC logo.
Opened up the lid to see a card that reads,
Wishing you the Happiest of Holidays. DC Comics 2009.
Took the card out and it was a moleskin sketchbook which had the name
DC COMICS on the cover along with the DC logo. It's sealed in plastic along with a DC logo white strap around it. Remove the strap and the DC logo is also embossed on the black cover itself.
The card and the white strap around the sketchbook had the DC logo made to look like a pencilled sketch, which I thought was a nice touch. Then my next thought was... "I should ink that pencilled DC Logo sketch." My thanks to DC for this nice gift. Cheers!

Dang, that is pretty nice. Is it a full size sketchbook or like a 8.5 x 11" size. Be nice if you could use that again and again, just slapping a new refill tablet inside of it again.
ReplyDeleteEither way, nice stuff.
It's a little bit smaller than 8,5x11. I would say it's half that. It's not refillable. In previous years, DC did send out a folio which you can refull it with pads of papers. There were slots to hold pens and business cards. Didn't have the DC logo. Just the name. Still nice.
ReplyDeletedamm... I wanna work for DC. I've gotten one comp copy of the "Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe #7" that I worked on doing refurbs for them and that's it... all we get is PDF files of the Handbooks otherwise.
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, you may not know that I have a work-for-hire with Marvel for the past year, so I can at least officially say on the resume that I "Work for Marvel" even though I'm just a small bacteria living on the pond scum at the bottom of the Marvel pool...
cheers
