WTF!?!?

Really? I was just looking at that painting (online) and I realized it's that gargamel/collab bird. that's terrible.

Yea, it fucking sucks.
Was lifted yesterday from what I know.
If anyone sees it ANYWHERE, please let us know.

thats fucked up...what a douche whoever it was.

Pretty ballsy to steal it right off the table. Shameless.

Total shitbag move.
What kind of asshole can enjoy a stolen piece of art?

But also, how is this possible in a crowded environment?
Just seems like such a visible item.

Sucks.

If there's anything I hate, it's a fucking thief. Hope you're proud of yourself, you prick.

That's what I was thinking. Every time the guy looks at it he should realize what a scumbag he is. Maybe the crowds made it easier to nab without being spotted...

This is SO bad....total let down.

Worst thing ever is a stolen piece of art.

People are fucked up.

I know! My crew found out about this today! So lame of someone to snag this!!

uber lameness...!!!

came all the way from japan to have some shithead jack a one of a kind painting......i hope someone catches this fool.

Lame ass shit.

I hope you enjoy your stolen piece of art and I hope that every time you admire it, you think about how shitty of a person you are for taking money out of an artist's pocket.

That's ridiculous, hopefully this gets returned to the rightful owner. Does this indicate there will be more 'reports' of stolen merchandise ?

this is such a tragedy. I was admiring this painting and the eaton one. both very very nice works of art. my friend and I discussed who would do this? was it premeditated by someone who knew of gargamel and really wanted the painting... or was it some joeblow passerby who just liked it and did not care? either way I hope they know what a piece of shit they are. how can you admire somehting you stole? I saw a D&D dork kid steal a handfull of 20 sided dice from a booth... I gave him a dirty look. wtf. also, on 2 seperate occations someone tried to grab and walk off w/ my bag. I hate theives.

I can't even wrap my head around the mind-work of A-holes who do this. People work so hard to bring something nice into the world (and even make a living--why not?) and someone can just take it from them for their own selfish reasons. Everyone feels the loss, and it just fucks up the good vibe.

I hope we find the stolen painting.

wow, what a low thing to do, and them making a trip all the way from japan to be there, and to have this kind of thing happen....people these days

Nice warm 'western' welcome huh ? There's always a bunch of rotten apples in the basket. With SDCC gaining popularity every edition and drawing so many folks from different backgrounds, theft is very likely to happen. I wonder if booth owners and dealers are insured against this ?

I don't think it's a matter of money, even if they were.

at least it wont go unnoticed if it pops up anywhere.

Wow. So lame. Stealing art is so stupid. You hang it up on the wall and you and everyone else who sees it knows your a lowlife douchebag! I really hope it gets found and returned.

That is really jacked up. U would have to really stupid to do something like this. I guess the person who stole this wanted it really bad and couldn't aford it, so decided to steal it instead. Not cool at all. It makes u an asshole. I do hope they catch the dumbass.

I'm willing to bet that this will never see the light of day ever again. Also that the person who stole it was not a board member nor kaiju collector.

Did the picture get stolen before or after the article about Gargamel showed up in the San Diego newspaper?
