SDCCA_070725_179.JPG: John Hitchcock.
According to http://www.ntune.tv/2007/04/06/john-hitchcock-parts-unknown/
John Hitchcock, a lifetime comic book fan and writer, owns and operates Parts Unknown, a comic book shop in Greensboro, NC. His book, Dear John: The Alex Toth Doodle Book is a collection of correspondence (over two decades worth) with legendary comic book creator, Alex Toth (1928-2006). Toth is best known for his Hanna- Barbera creations Space Ghost, The Herculoids, Birdman and Thundar The Barbarian, as well as his work on the Super Friends and Jonny Quest cartoons. John, a Greensboro native, will also be featured on the DVD release of Space Ghost later this year.
SDCCA_070725_185.JPG: Jim Silke.
According to http://lambiek.net/artists/s/silke-jim.htm
After an extensive career as an art director, magazine editor and publisher, photographer, historian and screenwriter, Jim Silke finally returned to his first love: writing and drawing comics. His debut was in 1993, with Dark Horse Comics release of 'Rascals in Paradise'. He is also the creator of the erotic 'Bettie Page' series, based on the famous pin-up model from the 1950s.

SDCCA_070727_08.JPG: Seen here back in 2007, body-builder David Prouse, best known as the physical Darth Vader on the original "Star Wars" trilogy (vs. James Earl Jones who provided the voice), passed on November 28. Another victim of Covid-19, he earned an MBE for his role in promoting traffic safety. I guess the Force was with him.

2007 photos: Equipment this year: I used the Fuji S9000 almost exclusively except for the period when it broke and I had to send it back for repairs. In August, I bought a Canon Rebel Xti, my first digital SLR (vs regular digital) which I tried as well but I wasn't that excited by it.
Trips this year: Two weeks down south (including Graceland, Shiloh, VIcksburg, and New Orleans), a week at a time share in Costa Rica over my 50th birthday, a week off for a family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with sidetrips to Dayton, Springfield, and Madison), a week in San Diego for the Comic-Con with a side trip to Michigan for two family reunions, a drive up to Niagara Falls, a couple of weekend jaunts including the Civil War Preservation Trust Grand Review in Vicksburg, and a December journey to three state capitols (Richmond, Raleigh, and Columbia). I saw sites in 18 states and 3 other countries this year -- the first year I'd been to more than two other countries since we lived in Venezuela when I was a little toddler.
Ego strokes: A photo that I took at the National Archives was used as the author photo on the book jacket for David A. Nichols' "A Matter of Justice: Eisenhower and the Beginning of the Civil Rights Revolution." I became a volunteer photographer at both Sixth and I Historic Synagogue and the Civil War Preservation Trust (later renamed "Civil War Trust")..
Number of photos taken this year: 225,000.
