No joke he was in dallas this weekend and was doing free sketches. Dr. V got one, ask him. I didn't go.

[Tony Coca]

about how much you guys think a finch new avenger would be?
I know last time i saw Finch at a con he did quick sketches for free.I dont think he does full pieces but hell you never know.

[Primal]

This con is gonna rock! Damn, with the size of that list I thought i'd see Stan Lee's name on there. :banghead:

[Just_joseph]

I would like to get Jim Lee's Signature on some of my private collection.

[HFA]

If you like the "legends", I don't see them listed but Neal Adams, Carmine Infantino, Jim Steranko, and several others will be there as well. I plan on having Neal and possibly even Jim Lee sign at my booth for a couple hours during the show.

Love those "legendary" artists!

[wolverinejedi007]

When and where Coca?

Yeah lets see if we get the rest of the ladies to come out. :eplus2:

[C. Bormann]

I've been thinking about going to this show. But I have to considder the weather and money. Scranton is about 135 miles west of NY, and the Pocono mountains can get nasty in the winter. I'm headed to Portland Jan. 18 -- 23 and WWLA in March. This does sound like a good show so far.

[Sniper]

I would like to get Jim Lee's Signature on some of my private collection.
have a batman and superman full sizes I would like him to sign :buttrock:

[Jerseydevil]

Can't wait to be there. I hope Adam Hughes shows up. And yes, I'm looking forward to chilling out with the New York crew afterwards.

[Tony Coca]

Yeah just make sure you dont have to work OT like last time. :eplus2:

[msw313]

I'll be there. But, based on past "fun" experience with NYC cons in winter, I just wish this could have been scheduled for April or May instead of February.

Already did a miserable Blizzard Con in NYC in Feb '95. NOT a highlight of 20+ years in the biz.

[Sam Wilson]

DC ANNOUNCES TEN MORE GUESTS FOR NY COMIC CON
Press Relese

DC Comics, the largest English language publisher of comic books worldwide and the home of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, announced today that ten renowned creators will join the growing roster of celebrities and comic book creators slated to appear at the upcoming New York Comic-Con. The artists and writers added to the show are:

Brian Azzarello—The writer of Vertigo’s award-winning series 100 BULLETS and the new spaghetti western-noir series LOVELESS.

Keith Giffen—The layout artist of DC Comics’ highly anticipated forthcoming weekly mini-series 52.

Dean Haspiel—The acclaimed artist of Harvey Pekar’s THE QUITTER graphic novel and a collaborator on Vertigo’s upcoming AMERICAN SPLENDOR series.

Phil Jimenez—The bestselling artist of DC’s INFINITE CRISIS blockbuster mini-series.

J.G. Jones—The cover artist and renowned painter of DC Comics’ highly anticipated forthcoming mini-series 52.

Adam Kubert—The superstar artist of an as-yet unannounced DC title.

Andy Kubert—The superstar artist of an as-yet unannounced DC title.

Douglas Rushkoff—The media critic and writer of the new Vertigo series TESTAMENT.

Brian K. Vaughan—The critically lauded writer of Vertigo’s Y THE LAST MAN series, WildStorm’s EX MACHINA series (which was recently named one of Entertainment Weekly’s Best Books of the Year) and the much anticipated Vertigo graphic novel PRIDE OF BAGHDAD.

Brian Wood—The writer of the provocative Vertigo series DMZ.

Today’s announcements come on the heels of the publisher’s previously announced appearances by bestselling DC Comics and WildStorm comic book illustrator Jim Lee and the New York Times bestselling murder mystery writer Brad Meltzer as Guests of Honor at the convention. New York Comic-Con is a new trade and consumer event for comics, games, anime and other related industries and will take place at the Jacob K. Javits Center in Manhattan, February 24th – 26th.

“Our aim is to help the inaugural New York Comic-Con live up to the rich history of New York comic book conventions from the heyday of the ‘60’s and ‘70’s,” said DC Comics President & Publisher Paul Levitz. “We’ve assembled an array of talented people to attend the convention that reflect the creative diversity and richness of DC Comics in 2006.”

“I am delighted that DC Comics is providing so much talent at our event,” notes Greg Topalian, Group Vice President in charge of Launch Pad for Reed Exhibitions. “While there will be a lot to see and do at New York Comic-Con, one of the major attractions is the chance for fans to meet their favorite artists and illustrators. This is a formidable list of talent by any standard of measurement,” concludes Topalian. “We will do everything we can to make New York Comic-Con a satisfying experience for them. Fans attending the convention will have the opportunity to get an early look at high profile projects—and perhaps to hear exclusive announcements”

Convention officials note that tickets for New York Comic-Con are now on sale on the Web site at www.nycomiccon.com

James, my wife's looking at me sideways about this trip after coming home from Boston with those signed Simonson BRB and Ross Avengers pieces. If I buy anything from you in NYC we may have to figure out some kind of stealth shipping service. :laugh:

[HFA]

Can do on the secretive shipping! :)

I appreciate the offer for drinks, but I'm easy as I'm only as adventurous as a Roy Rogers or a Shirley Temple!
