A Distant Soil: The Gathering Chapter 3 Page 13 |

Many thanks and much love to our dear friend in Madeira Portugal, Roberto Macedo Alves, who has not only been of incredible support to A Distant Soil, but has the only comic shop on the entire island of Madeira.

In this blog entry, he remembers an old issue of Amazing Spiderman I drew. This is interesting because he compares the translations of the text, and you can see how much gets cut out from the English version.

Here he shows sketches and autographs from several authors signings. And he says very nice things about me.

Thank you so much for all the kind words and support, Roberto! And best of luck at the all new Setima Dimensao, the place to get your comics on the beautiful island of Madeira!!!

Hello, Colleen! You just left me speechless! THANK YOU!
As usual, in the morning, I went to visit your blog (is the first website I read everyday) and I was just amazed and delighted to find your kind and sweet comments about me and the Setima Dimensao. Until now, your visit has certainly been the highest moment in the existence of the store. And I was delighted and glad to have the opportunity to meet you and talk to you personally.
And I think of you every time, when I look at the wonderful gifts you gave us! I am the one who wants to thank you, Colleen!

Gee, I am all blushed and tinkly right now! tee hee.
