   Will Eisner 100th Celebration by Klaus Janson/Frank Miller hosted at the SVA Theater. My buddy Joanthony Jimenez and I went to see the great legendary Frank Miller and Klaus Janson reflect on the 100 year history and accomplishment of WIll Eisner and his effect/influence on comic book and cinema storytelling. Frank was hilarious. When it came time for Q & A, I asked him and Janson if they had ever had a planned project with Will Eisner, which humorously Frank Miller gave a very funny reply stating that Eisner wouldn't have had time to collaborate with them. They were both great. What fascinated me the most is how humorous but somewhat humble and self aware that Miller actually is. Definitely a great night of insight, knowledge, history and inspiration. Jo and I both made pieces inspired by Eisner, Miller Janson's influence in comics. I took some photos as well. -Anthony Andujar Jr

Got an autograph from Klaus Janson inker of many comics, most notably well known for his inks on Daredevil, The Dark Knight Returns, Batman: Black and White, and numerous other comics. It was great to speak to the man in person. Now I can say I've met John Romita Jr and Klaus Janson all in one.
