BEWARE POSSIBLE ONLINE COMIC CON SCAM

The Core started by Korey Rochon.


Originally I reported about this new Online Comic Con run by Korey Rochon, was running a new style online comic con that was going to run every other week starting in the end of May. Well plans have fallen through apparently, as the creator was slowly gathering PDF’s from several creators, and he would not explain how he was going to reimburse payment to several creators. Furthermore, he kept changing his tune on what he was exactly doing.

When pressed further by many other comic creators he would turn around and block these creators without trying to explain his motivations.

The event seemed like a promising try to get independent creators names out there.

It’s being reported as well that Korey Rochon started to demand further work from creators, telling them he required more work from them and when people would question he offered little explanation.

When I looked into his website that housed several of the creator’s works, the main website was taken down and he claimed that he was pushing the con back to another date. Meanwhile he gathered many PDF’s from several people who submitted entire books to this online con. I would suggest people that submitted work to this guy, be on the look out as this maybe a fishing ruse where Korey can be gathering other creators work, and using it for his own personal gain by saying he created all these works to get more money from other people. Over the last few years there have been several similar scams where people use another creator’s work as their own, so I suggest everyone to stand vigil and be on the look out.


If anyone has anymore info about Korey Rochon, please share it here with me. I’d love to talk.

Lady Byrd talks with Rico

Artist Rico @ Monster’s Ink

Where did you learn to tattoo?

 My family tattoo origins started with my grandma. She and her twin sister were into
Rico with Zombie Michael Koske
the tattoo scene back then. (Rico’s grandma even has her knuckles tattooed.) My father is a strong tattoo artist and many of my cousins and uncles are also tattoo artist.Chicano art and culture heavily influenced my style.

 Many of Rico’s tattoo collection is from his family members. He has a very extensive collection of fine gradient black and grey tattoos.

What would you consider your style?

 My style is very versatile. I learned with single needle black and grey. I prefer fine line black and grey but I do color and traditional. I love doing portraits. I get to memorialize a loved one or immortalize someone’s children permanently on the skin is rewarding. I like seeing images come to life and how happy the client is. It is very rewarding.

When did you come to Florida?

 I am new to this area from California. I came here in January of this
year. I enjoy meeting new artist and the clients. On my down time I spend time sketching and drawing but mostly I spend time with my children. I try to balance my family life with my art work.

More of Rico's work here:

You can find Rico at Monster's Ink over at Palm Bay Florida, 1851 Palm Bay Rd NE Suite 4, or call for appointment at 321-802-5611.

R.I.P. H.R. Giger

Swiss artist H.R. Giger, who designed the creature in Ridley Scott's sci-fi horror classic "Alien," has died at age 74 from injuries suffered in a fall.

H.R. Giger was a master designer, had created the entire Biomechanical genre in sci-fi culture. Legions of fans are mourning his passing.  He leaves behind an immense legacy and he will be truly missed. I loved his work and his creations. 

The world of creative media will miss you sir and we here at Space Coast Comixx, bid you farewell.

RIP Dick Ayers

Another legend has passed. I say we give Mr. Ayers a ten rocket salute as another legend of comicdom has passed. I enjoyed his work, and his work ethic. You will never be forgotten Dick Ayers, you were a true legend and a master.

Richard "Dick" Ayers (April 28, 1924 – May 4, 2014) was an American comic book artist and cartoonist best known for his work as one of Jack Kirby's inkers during the late 1950s and 1960s  area more specifically know as the Silver Age, he inked some of the earlier issues of The Fantastic Four. He was the signature penciler of Marvel's World War II comic Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos, drawing it for a 10 year run, and he co-created Magazine Enterprises' 1950s Western-horror character the Ghost Rider, a version of which he would draw for Marvel in the 1960s.


Ayers was inducted into the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame in 2007.
