Bruce Campbell

He said, let’s be casual dude!

One of the greatest genre, character and bit actors in my lifetime. Bruce has starred in Army of Darkness, Evil Dead, The Man with the Screaming Brain and A Man Called Bruce. Plus memorable roles in Escape from LA, The Hudsucker Proxy, Congo, all three Sam Raimi Spider-Man flicks, Bubba-hotep and Cars 2. Lets not forget all his TV: Brisco County Jr., Xena, Jack of All Trades, Burn Notice and Hercules. I’ll spare you the voice acting. Now you can’t forget those Old Spice commercials! I love how the painting just kept going and going while he walked.

Somara and I have met Bruce before, his book signing about a decade ago at Book People. He is a regular visitor to Austin as well, often doing a live commentary to Evil Dead 2 every few years.

I just never had a picture with Bruce. This convention was my opportunity to add Ash/Autolycus/Bruce/Elvis to my collection. As you can see from the pose, he didn’t disappoint! Now to keep my fingers crossed for Army of Darkness 2.
