Comic-Con 2009
July 21, 2009, filed under: News, by LexSan Diego’s Comic-Con International is this week and I’ll be heading down to man my table in Small Press for the big show. This is my sixth year at the convention and each year gets better and better.
I’ll have Kid Beowulf and the Blood-Bound Oath on hand to sell and a few remaining copies of the preview edition of Kid Beowulf and the Song of Roland–I am also bringing the proof copy (all 250 pages) of Roland so folks can get a taste of all the goodness that is book two. Limited Edition Resin Sculpts of Beowulf and Hama will also be on display and for sale at the table.
For those of you with nifty Iphones, check out the super-cool Comic-con app you can download for free. It’s the entire program guide in the palm of your hand and includes maps so you will never get lost on the Comic-con floor (although, frankly, that’s part of the fun).
And finally for you panel-goers out there be sure to check out my panel on Sunday:
1:30-2:30 Comics and Graphic Novels for All Ages— It’s true! There’s a wealth of great comic books series and graphic novels out there for comics-loving kids of all ages—so much so, that Comic-Con presents its second big panel of the day on the topic! Moderator Randy Duncan (co-chair of the Comics Arts Conference) talks with Jimmy Gownley (Amelia Rules!), Kazu Kibuishi (Amulet), David Petersen (Mouse Guard), Eric Jones and Landry Walker (Supergirl, Little Gloomy), Jeff Smith (Bone), and Alexis Fajardo (Kid Beowulf) about comics for everyone! Room 3
I’m jazzed to be on the same panel with the likes of these guys and am looking forward to it. Sunday is traditionally kids day and you can’t get a better line-up of creators than that! It’s gonna be a good show and I’ll try and post some updates as they happen. See you there!
