Tradd very cool and generous to donate the art for Felix’s great cause. Thank you!
Rick Yankosky

I’m ignorant to Fortnite, in general, but it seems those running it have some pretty good taste in art/artist, no?
Felix Lu
12:15
@rick...I think they do!
Dan T
12:15
Great work!
ML (OG)
12:15
yeah ditto what Andy said
And a great opportunity to see Tradd apply his vision to the same subject a second time.
Felix Lu
12:16
Hey guys...Tradd is taking his time to answer each question...he's a very thoughtful person! So please be patient as we work through them!
Tradd
12:17
@Rob R - Thanks, Rob! Good to hear from you! In that sequence, Surfer had fallen apart literally and figuratively. We've seen that done a thousand times before, usually depicted representationally, or as representational as you can be given the supernatural context, but I wanted to approach it in the way that western art transitioned from representational to abstract across the 1800's through the 1900's. So yeah, great call seeing the Cubism in there! Tried to put in touches of Picasso, Braque, Kandinsky among others! Rodin!

Amazing Doom piece! Wow

@Tradd any updates on NEW WORLD Feature? I'm so stoked for that and how it will give Asian American Male representation a long overdue place on the big screen. What has the process been like to collaborate for another medium? (and another culture like Hollywood)?
Stephan

Thank you for your time.

I’ve been staring at tradds cover for department of truth 4 for weeks!!
Dele
12:17
Thanks for your time Tradd!
Dakota crose
12:18
Yes thanks for your time tradd that was a very thoughtful response
Murray G

Hi all, Any chance of a deluxe hardcover for Silver Surfer Black?
Felix Lu
12:19
@Murray G...I hope so! But for now, the treasury edition is EXCELLENT. Just a heads-up, Marvel is reprinting SSB at regular TPB size, so if you haven't grabbed the treasury edition yet, you should! You have all been warned!
Carl Choi
12:19
Tradd has always been sincere at the Cons. Never in a rush to end a conversation and a true giver to his fans.
Tradd
12:19
@Carl Choi - Alas, no updates on THE NEW WORLD yet! Last I spoke with those folks it was in the screen writing stage. Fingers crossed we'll have more to share later this year!
Stephan
12:19
Hi Tradd, How have you been doing? What have you been working on as of late? Will you do more creator-owned work?
Rob R
12:20
Wow, thanks for the answer Tradd! That background is amazing. I own the page and it's one of my favorite pieces in my collection. Looking forward to hopefully seeing you again at a future con. My wife and I saw you at HeroesCon 2019 and had a blast chatting with you about Surfer, Bloodborne, and Samurai Jack.
Felix Lu
12:21
@Rob...when I shared the question with Tradd...I said it was from "Rob R"...he said "Is that Rob Rusch? I remember talking to him at Heroes Con 2019!" LOL!!
He even remembers your wife's cosplay!! Unbelievable memory!
Dele
12:21
@Felix - I had a feeling that would happen. The Treasury edition will quickly go Out Of Print
Lambo
12:21
if anyone haven’t gotten that treasury edition of SSB, they really did a fantastic job on that! Highly recommend!!!
Felix Lu
12:23
CROSSOVER #1 cover! Have you guys been reading this? Really fun!!
Tradd
12:23
@Stephan - Doing alright out here! Hope you're hanging in there too! I'm afraid most of the stuff I've been working on is hush-hush at the moment! Working hard on a new comic right now, and dipped my toes into some other mediums in 2020... we shall see what will come! Can't wait to share more later this year.
Felix Lu
12:23
And the pencil sketch!
Tradd
12:23
@Dele - Thanks for showing up! Always happy to see your name pop up on these things!
Tom Franck
12:24
Tradd:  At one point, you had a video posted of you drawing lines between lines as a challenge.  Any place to still see that?
Brian Lake
12:24
@Felix Crossover has been a fun story cant wait to see who shows up and where it goes
Rob R
12:24
@Felix @Tradd that's awesome! Just told my wife and that made her day. Talking with you Tradd was sincerely one of, if not the highlight of the con for us
Ron Lim
12:25
Hey everyone. Felix! Tradd!
Dakota crose
12:25
Crossover has been amazing and that’s my favorite cover of it!
Felix Lu
12:26
@Ron...glad you could make this one!
Dele
12:26
@Tradd - seriously, you are the man! And such a nice person too - It's so good :)
Ron Lim
12:26
@Felix Set my phone alarm to make it... was having lunch
Tariq
12:27
Tradd, Apart from SSB and SM which other Marvel or DC characters do you feel your unique and striking illustration style is best suited for?
Stephan Lapin
12:27
@Tradd, what is the ideal way to reach out to you?
Felix Lu
12:28
@Stephan...write me and I'll forward!
Tradd
12:28
@Tom Franck - Haha, I had forgotten about that video! Good memory! The main spot to see my work is on my website traddmoorecomics.com, though I don't post videos on there. I have a flickr and a tumblr too, for anyone who loves dying platforms like I do :)
