Off to NYCC

Well it's a week earlier than expected but I'm off to my first New York Comic Con. New York City, home to the Comics Industry and bed bugs. Coincidence?

First I'm making a stop in LA to see family and drop in on the Disney Television Animation Reunion and Panel where DW creator Tad Stones and many of the other stalwarts of the Disney Afternoon will be offering their stories and ramblings of the heyday of TV animation. (seriously, I just can't get into this Phineas & Ferb stuff)

Then it's off to the Empire State. If you are in the tri-state area please stop by and join us at the Boom Studios Booth for the exclusive NYCC Darkwing cover. Just look for the newly unveiled Darkwing Duck banner

I will be at the booth for most of the time signing and sketching but we will have set times to sign with writer Ian Brill and  colorist Andrew Dalhouse on friday from 1-2, saturday from 12-1 and from 5-6 and Sunday from 12-1 and 4-5. Plus the Boom Studios/Boom Kids panel is from 1:15-2:15 to give you the latest scoop on all the current and upcoming titles. Also make sure to get a sketch cover from Muppet Siren Amy Mebberson or any of the other handsome Boom artists who will be at the booth as well.

I'm looking forward to meeting all the east coasters. Full report when I get back to my island.

  1. "many of the other stalwarts" => I wonder if Jymn Magon will be among them...

    It seems like Boom is planning something big! (they've just posted a teasing news for a "Boom Kids 2.0" for 2011!) I'm again hoping like mad for an announcement of a TaleSpin comic. Wish I could be there!

    Anyway, thank you SO MUCH for doing such a great job on Darkwing and making it a success. I enjoyed the first 4 issues pretty much and can't wait for the upcoming arc (and I've never been a big fan of Darkwing, to begin with!)

  3. Hi James! Just wanted to say the Darkwing Duck books look wonderful, and that it was very nice to meet you and chat with you at NYCC (I was the one who told you I became an animator because of Darkwing Duck and gave you my card)!

    Looking forward to more books!
