Just in case you haven’t heard, X09 Canada will be taking place September 29th in Toronto. While it’s primarily a media event, there is a community portion in the evening that you can try to get into. I say try because spots are VERY limited and you essentially have to apply to get in. You can read all the details in the official Xbox Canada forum thread about it.

For the past three years I’ve been at the event meeting gamers, giving away prints and signing autographs and this year will be no different (hopefully). I’ve got an all new print featuring Halo ODST that I’m hoping you’ll like. I decided that I wanted to try something different this year and instead of a comic I took a shot at making a Photoshop render/illustration. I think it turned out pretty well but I’m curious as to what you guys think. Would you rather have had a more traditional comic instead? It’s obviously too late this year, but at least I’ll know for next time.

In addition, I am also looking into an option for people who would like a print but are not able to attend the event. Every year people ask me this and I’ve always had to decline them. I’ll be talking about this more later, but be aware that the non-event version will a) not be exactly the same as the limited edition b) have a cost associated with it. Well, *if* it happens at all that is.

Hit the jump to get a preview of this year’s print…
