NEW YORK CITY COMIC CON 2008 !! Lar deSouza





I was surprised to run into one of my caricature mentors , Lar deSouza, a brillant Canadian artist, (not that there's anything WRONG with being a Canadian)who I didnt know drew comics also. Since 2003, Lar, along with author Ryan Sohmer , has been delighting audiences on the web with the adventures of Rayne Summers, a modern-day Casanova. The name of the comic is
"Least I Could Do (LICD)" and judging from the line of adoring fans at his table the series has a large fan base. I got a kick out of Lar's fans requesting merchandise, buying books getting autographs and sketches and not ONCE asking for a caricature! It was a mindblower! of course, I got MINES Done though.
Lar is a sweetheart of a guy, He just LOOKS like a missing link that will tear your head off....
