Last monday,in Lucca, for the first time in my life, I met Jeff. I was the first on the line that day, and I gave to Mr. Smith two books to sign. When he saw that one of these was the new Full Colour Bone Volume from the box set, he looked surprised and said: “Thank you!”
When he gave back to me the two books with TWO sketches, the only word that I could say was: WOW!
Thanks to YOU, Mr. Smith!

Hi Jeff, just out of curiosity, will your world tours ever include Australia. More specifically Melbourne. Like the rest of the world there are so many people that would love to meet you in Oz one day.
Cheers
