Ken “Value Added” Steacy will be joining us at the Lunar Module Mk. 3 on Monday, November 14th at 6:00pm.
Known around Desert Bus as Ken “Value Added” Steacy thanks to his legacy of creating some of the most exciting live auctions we’ve seen, Ken decided at age eleven to become a professional comic book writer/artist, a dream he realized in 1974. Since then, he has chronicled the exploits of Spider-Man, Harry Potter, and the Star Wars gang, to name but a few. In addition to creating his own intellectual property, he has collaborated with Harlan Ellison, Dean Motter, and Douglas Coupland. The recipient of an Eisner and an Inkpot award, Ken was inducted into the Joe Shuster Awards Hall of Fame in 2009, a lifetime achievement award honouring Canadian comic book creators for their contributions to the industry. Alongside his wonderful wife, graphic novelist Joan Steacy, Ken is currently teaching Comics & Graphic Novels in a program they created at Camosun College here in Victoria.

Coming this week to a Desert Bus near you, the hit blockbuster Ash Cubed! Here’s the problem, we don’t have a promotional poster! This is where you will all come in.
Until 5:30 PM PST Ash wants you to try your hand at creating a movie poster of Ash Cubed, starring Ashley, Ashton and Ash. Please send your entries to contest@desertbus.org with the subject line, “Ash Movie Poster” or “Ash Cubed”. The subject can be whatever you want but should feature all three of our protagonists.
The prize for this, in a very cinematic fashion, is this Batman Props lot. I can’t recommend trying to use the Grapnel launcher, but it’s going to definitely be a conversation starter.
LOOK AT THESE PUPS!
Ashley asked you to send these two on a journey through your art, and boy did you deliver. It was tough to decide on a singular adventure for them, but in the end it came down to one winner!
