Zoom Suit #1 Film Festival Edition, AKA, MOVIE POSTER EDITION
Cover by Billy Tucci

Pencils by Billy Dallas Patton
The Film Festival Edition was designed in the tradition of classic movie posters, featuring the logo at the bottom. It is by far the rarest of the rare Zoom Suit Limited Editions. It was only given to family members of the creative team and fans that went above and beyond the call of duty for the Zoom Suit Project. Copies of this edition have sold for as high as $2,200. John donates all the money raised by this edition to animal charities.
This edition was an extremely short run of under 1,500 copies. Most were personalized with thank you messages to company insiders or friends that worked on the project.
