Bring a Bedbug into your home!



Sure, New York City is crawling with Bedbugs this time of year, but nothing keeps the Bedbugs from biting than a nice clean T-shirt. It's great to wear to bed, to your favorite comic store or just laying around the house.

Why not order one from Cafe Press today?

You can make Bedbug toy a reality!


Hey all,
I recently discovered a great site called Patch Together that lets artists submit their designs for toys. It's long been my dream to have Bedbug in plastic (or in this case vinyl) form. I submitted the above image (drawn by the super-talented Franco) as a contestant. It was accepted and is now in the running to become a real figure.
Here's where you come in, if I can get enough votes, Patch Together will make the first offiicial Bedbug vinyl figure and sell a limited number of them. All you have to do is go to the below link
and vote (you want to vote a "5") for Bedbug!
Let's make this happen and thanks for your help in advance!

Not dead yet!



So I've been playing around with this idea for a Bedbug toy for sometime now. It would be Bedbug on one of those suction cup "pop-up" toys (do they even have a name) that you sometimes see around Halloween.

The thing is, before I sink time and money into this, I need to know if there's any interest. It would be small - no more than a few inches tall and the goal would to keep it around a couple of bucks in price.

Let me know if you Bedbug fans want a little poppin' BB for your collections.

Mighty Bedbug custom action figure


When I'm not creating comic books, making video games or board games, I'm customizing action figures. I made this Bedbug many years ago when I was publishing Shooting Star Comics.

Bedbug was made from a BTAS Nightwing figure, Toy Biz Marvel character's (I don't remember which) hands, a Dragon Ball Z character head and Buzz Lightyear boots. The belt, gauntlets, boot details and antennea were made from kneadatite and the clear googles are bits from a STAS Lex Luthor suit.
I think he turned out pretty good!

Bedbug by Franco!

Franco is one of the two very talented guys working on DC's Tiny Titans comic. Both me and my kids love Tiny Titans and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get a drawing of Bedbug while at San Diego Comic Con. The best part is, this awesome color sketch only cost one dollar! Sorry Franco, but that was a steal!

Bedbug by Colleen Coover!

I really like Colleen Coover's style. It's really fun and friendly and light-hearted, even if half her comics are about sex-crazed lesbians. You might know her work from "X-Men: First Class". I'm a fan of her work and couldn't resist getting a drawing while at San Diego Comic Con. I think it turned out very nice - Bedbug looks like he's going for a power-walk.
