Emerald City Comic Con
http://www.emeraldcitycomicon.com

Over a month has gone by since our first update and we have... wait
for it... TWENTY new creators that we've added to the 2009 show!

We'll begin with
MIKE MIGNOLA, the award-winning creator of Hellboy
and the B.P.R.D. in addition to his long career working on properties
from
Batman to Wolverine to Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser (a personal
favorite).

Another creator whose work has been recently turned in to film is
BEN
TEMPLESMITH
, co-creator and artist of 30 Days of Night. Lately, he's
even better known as the creator/writer/ artist of his own
Wormwood:
Gentleman Corpse
and Welcome To Hoxford series.

Those two creators are making their
first appearance and so are the
writer/artist duo of the popular Tiny Titans series, ART BALTHAZAR
and FRANCO.

ROB LIEFELD is a founding member of Image Comics, creator of
Youngblood and he helped create Cable, Deadpool and the
New Mutants
for
Marvel Comics.

BOB LAYTON is one of the best-known and beloved artists to have ever
worked on Iron Man, while KHOI PHAM is a newcomer who has been making
a name for himself lately working on Incredible Herc and
Mighty
Avengers
.

Indy sensations
ALEX ROBINSON (Too Cool To Be Forgotten), JIM MAHFOOD
(Grrl Scouts, Clerks), DAVE CROSLAND (Everybody's Dead) and
SCOTT
MORSE
(Wall*E, Magic Pickle) will all be keeping it fresh at the show.

DAVE JOHNSON creates striking covers for
100 Bullets and Punisher
every month, while BRANDON PETERSON is known for illustrating such
books as Ultimate Vision and Ultimate Extinction.

Returning again to the show are
Uncanny X-Men artist MIKE CHOI,
Elephantmen creator & writer RICHARD STARKINGS, The End League artist
ERIC CANETE
and Secret Invasion: Home Invasion writer IVAN BRANDON.

Speaking of Secret Invasion, GREG HORN has been creating beautiful
covers to tease the entire series over the last year, in addition to
his huge body of cover work for Marvel.

Well, that should about cover it - I'll be back with more updates
soon. BTW, if you are interested in exhibiting at the show, please
