SDCC 09

We won't have a booth this year, which means we'll be everywhere. Look for us, stop us on the street, be friendly. You'll have plenty of chances to find us. If we're not on a panel or not signing, chances are we're hanging around at the coolest booth of the con (#1322) with our friends Becky Cloonan, Jill Thompson, Brian Wood and Cliff Chiang, so make sure you stop at their booth, 'cause they have the coolest looking books out there!

!! EDIT !!
WE WILL HAVE A BOOTH!! And it is exactly booth #1322 with Becky Cloonan, Vasilis Lolos, Jill Thompson, Brian Wood and Cliff Chiang. We won't be there all the time, but now it is much easier to find us!!

We'll be bringing new originals (from Umbrella Academy, Sugarshock and other projects) to sell, but we're still not sure how or where we'll do it. After the convention, online sales and shipping of originals will continue with the nice folks from Beguiling (link for Bá's originals and link for Fábio's originals)

We think we have all the information about our panels and sigining schedule, and they go as follow:

THURSDAY, July 23rd

- 4:00pm-5:00pm - Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá signing at the Dark Horse booth (#2615)

- 6:00pm -7:00pm - Vertigo New Ongoing Series/Crime Line (Room 5AB)

It's a new beginning for Vertigo with the launch of new ongoing titles such as The Unwritten, Greek Street & Sweet Tooth. In addition to these titles we will be launching the highly anticipated Vertigo Crime Line with some of the top talents in the industry. Hosted by Senior VP - Executive Editor, Vertigo, Karen Berger and Senior Editor Will Dennis, this panel is not to be missed, especially considering the talent present: Peter Gross (Unwritten), Jeff Lemire (Sweet Tooth, The Nobody), Jason Starr, Chris Gage, Gabriel Bá, Fábio Moon and others!

FRIDAY, July 24th

- 12:30pm-1:30pm Spotlight on Fábio Moon- (Room 10)
Meet Eisner Award–winning Brazilian cartoonist Fábio Moon (Sugar Shock!, 5) as he shares his love for comics and talks about working with his twin brother Gabriel Bá (Umbrella Academy), collaborating with high-profile creators Matt Fraction (Casanova), Joss Whedon (Buffy), and Mike Mignola (Hellboy) and what's next. Lots of images to show, with a fun Q&A to follow.

I think I'll have a signing right after the panel, somewhere, somehow. I'll update this space as soon as I know more.
