Jim Lawson returns to the Western Massachusetts Comic Book Show!
Born and raised in a tiny town in northwestern Connecticut, Jim Lawson always knew that he wanted to become an artist and that he had the hopeful, yet somewhat unrealistic goal for himself to make a living drawing pictures.
After he graduated art school, a fortunate series of events came together that allowed him to be introduced to the creators of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. That was the beginning of Jim’s career in comics, which now has spanned nearly 35 incredible years- 25 of them with Mirage Studios as a writer/artist on the original black and white Turtle comic.
Since the end of his association with the TMNTs, Jim has pursued a solo freelance career. His many self-published works include among others, Paleo: Tales of the Late Cretaceous, A Walk Through Dinosaurland, Dragonfly, Dinosaur Head Cat and Jim Lawson’s Dinosaurs Coloring Book.

After meeting Kevin Eastman and showing a portfolio at a comic con, Rick wrote and drew a story for Turtle Soup #1 and a double-size issue for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #44. A 2016 collaboration with his brother Doug produced the full-color science fiction graphic novel, We All Travel Time. He taught a for-credit class at the college level for five years called Comic Drawing and started his own media imprint, Billion Hero Studios.

Doug brings with him several of his most recent books, including his collections of “improv comics” The Nefarious Nomenclature of Norman Nigglebottom, Pocketful of Crime and The Dregs of Crime, each of which contain 110 off the cuff comics in the grand surreal tradition of Basil Wolverton, and Gahan Wilson. Also available will be 2016’s We All Travel Time, a full-color 48 page anthology done in collaboration with brother, and former TMNT artist, Rick Arthur. Among other titles, Doug also will have limited edition color
prints, original artwork, CDs, and podcast samplers available at his table, and will gladly sign
autographs at no extra fee!
