I would like as much information regarding professional comic artists
agencies contact information as possible.  I have a pet project that I
am working on, and I would like to commission a prominent comic artist
to pencil two splash pages for me.  Being in Iraq, going to a
convention and trying to proposition them in person is not an option. 
I would like to know how to approach them in a professional manner. 
This affords them their private space that they are entitled to, and
may aid me in my efforts to hire the artists in question.  Thank you
for shedding any light on this subject for me.
