We owe a huge apology to Jerry Ma of Epic Proportions, whose designs for our shirts have nearly become as big a draw as the films. In all the excitement of springing Angela Mao Ying on Sammo, we neglected to tell the crowd that the award incorporated Jerry’s original artwork for the shirt (see photo below).

Sammo was told backstage, once we realized our mistake, and he was clearly impressed. We love the design and value Jerry’s work highly, so we apologize and hope we can continue to work with him for many more years.

We encourage you to visit Jerry’s blog, and Epic Proportions web site, where you can get more of his great T-shirts (some of our favorites are  “Super Fly,” “Golden Arms,” and “You Have Our Gratitude”). And if you like comic books, you should also check out Secret Identities: The Asian American Superhero Anthology where Jerry was one of the key creative forces.
