And we’re also proud to present the debut of Peter Bagge’s Other Stuff, not due in stores until May, and featuring collaborations with Daniel Clowes, R. Crumb, Danny Hellman, Gilbert Hernandez, Jaime Hernandez, Alan Moore, Johnny Ryan, and Adrian Tomine! Get your copy quick, ’cause these are gonna go fast!
Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery empresario Larry Reid will be behind the booth with our Jen Vaughn, Ian Burns, and intern Lillian Morlock.
Booth 510 is located near the frontline of the exhibitor floor, in the second row as you cross the Sky Bridge. Please note: this is a condensed version of the map. You can view the full map here.
Our Outreach Fiend, Jen, will also be droppin’ some knowledge at the panel “The Big Picture” on Friday from 4:20-5:15 PM in Hall C, where she’ll discuss how the landscape of the comics field has changed along with fellow panelists Allison Baker, Shannon Watters, Kelly Sue DeConnick, and Emi Lenox.
The Emerald City Comicon is held at the Washington State Convention & Trade Center at 800 Convention Place in bustlin’ downtown Seattle.
While supplies last, you can still get tickets at the Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery in Georgetown. (But, you better hurry, ’cause as of this typing, quantity is dwindling quickly!)
See you there!
