UPDATE: THE REGULAR SEX BOB-OMB posters ARE SOLD OUT. THERE ARE ONLY A HANDFUL OF THE METALLIC VERSIONS LEFT.
I was fortunate enough to be a part of Oni Press‘ Scott Pilgrim Series, along with Daniel Danger, Aesthetic Apparatus, and Hellen Jo.
The posters were debuted exclusively at this year’s Comic Con International San Diego to extremely happy fans. I saw the tell tale Oni Press poster envelopes everywhere on the Convention floor and I have gotten many emails asking about when I will put my copies up for sale.
I also got to meet the Scott Pilgrim creator, Bryan Lee O’Malley who was at the Oni Press booth much of the time, signing posters. It was such an honor to meet him and he said he was really excited about my poster. That is cool. Way cool.
I have put my posters up for sale on my website and the good news just keeps coming. Let me talk about the posters first!
PURCHASE INFO
The posters are for the band SEX BOB-OMB (a fictional band in the Scott Pilgrim universe) and are available in my online store. They are four color screen prints on 18 x 24 inch 100 lb cover paper. Each poster is numbered and signed by me and both versions only cost $20 each (before shipping fees). The posters were expertly printed with both regular and metallic inks (use the drop down menu in the store). The regular versions are in an edition of 400 and the metallic version is in an edition of 600. Many of them sold at Comic Con last weekend, so I only have a small percentage of each version.
I will also set aside a certain portion that I will carry with me to live events like Renegade Craft Fair and Flatstock. Please consult my Live Events Schedule to see if I will be coming to a town near you.
CONTEST INFO
The first bit of fun is that everyone who orders my Sex Bob-Omb poster is automatically entered for a chance to win THE ENTIRE SET OF THE SCOTT PILGRIM SERIES courtesy of me. The set will be placed randomly into one of any orders placed before August 7, 2010. I’ll cover any additional shipping fees.
PROCESS VIDEO AND DETAIL PHOTOS
The coolness keeps on rolling. I made a really detailed video process thread about the whole process. Check it out, you can see how I put down the 8 bit video game squares.
Here’s a slideshow with some detailed pictures so you can see how detailed things are getting on the surface.
I hope you all enjoy this poster as much as I enjoyed making it. I am a Scott Pilgrim fan for sure and I am excited about the final book and the movie coming out soon. If you haven’t read Scott Pilgrim, please go grab a copy now, it doesn’t disappoint!

These are too cool! I’m going to go sit by the door and wait for mine right now

Kevin, what an amazing poster. Pity I couldn’t get to San Diego but being Down Under it’s a bit far to travel. I loved the video - great seeing the artistic process and the way you went about composing the piece.

Andrew 07.27.10 at 2:08 pm
Just ordered mine! Been waiting ever since i first saw it online before comic con. Would love the entire set. Can’t find any of the other ones yet.
Kevin Tong 07.27.10 at 2:34 pm
The other posters will be available as the artists post them. Just follow the links in my blog to the other artist’s sites to find out when they are available for purchase.
Also, don’t forget that anyone who orders my Sex Bob-Omb poster before August 7, 2010 is automatically entered for a chance to win the ENTIRE SET OF SCOTT PILGRIM SERIES, courtesy of me!

Hey Kevin, any chance of you selling that black and white drawing you did of Scott and Ramona for this poster?
admin 07.29.10 at 3:06 pm
Sorry, I don’t really sell the original drawings of the work I do. Thanks for asking though.
Melissa 08.04.10 at 12:23 pm
I didn’t see it in your online store. Please, please, please tell me they’re not already sold out!
Melissa 08.04.10 at 12:28 pm
Oops! Sorry. I guess in my excitement over the awesomeness of the print I missed the part where you mentioned they were definitely sold out. But just so you know, I am seriously considering making a trip to Chicago (from DC) if it means I might have a chance at getting my hands on one of these!
admin 08.04.10 at 3:08 pm
Hi Melissa,
Thanks for your vigorous interest in my work! While I was setting up my booth in San Francisco, a guy came in, made a beeline toward me, and bought a Sex Bob-Omb while I was still setting up!
I have a small portion left, but I am spreading them out over my next few events. I will definitely have some of those in Chicago, but I don’t know how long they will last.
Hopefully I can hand you one in Chicago, one of my favorite cities!
A.V. 08.04.10 at 11:44 pm
Hi, Kevin. Ordered mine, but do you have any info on when these will ship? Thanks in advance!
Tom Coates 08.05.10 at 9:27 pm
Is there any chance of getting another printing? I’d absolutely LOVE one of these.
Derek Chow 08.25.10 at 11:44 pm
Dang I missed out on the online sale… I really want one of these posters. I seriously cannot believed I missed out on such a wonderful poster. Its a shame that its limited D:, It stinks because I just got into Scott Pilgrim, I would seriously pay triple if I could get my hands on one. I hope that you would consider printing more posters?
Would you think about having a booth at the New York Comic Con in October?
Joe Wright 08.28.10 at 5:48 pm
I echo the above sentiment, I am in love with this print and I can’t believe that I didn’t find out about it until now. I’ve not been able to close this page all night because I’m so upset that it is sold out.
I am but a poor student, but as above, I would be willing to pay triple, even for a digital file to print out myself. I would love it if you did another run though. I have never wanted anything this badly! You’re a fantastic artist and you really captured the intimate, beautiful atmosphere of the book 1 snow scene. I wish so much that I could buy this.
admin 08.29.10 at 5:24 pm
Thanks for your feedback guys. I have absolutely no Sex Bob-Omb posters left. I will never reprint them either. Sorry for the letdown, but that’s how it works. If you’d still like to go to my events to see the rest of my work and the other great work there, please do so, I’d love to meet you in person.
