Planning on attending the 2017 Long Beach Comic Con this September 2nd and 3rd? Looking for some horror action? We’ve got your hook-up. We’re good like that.
Saturday:
Fanbase Press Presents: Things that Go Bump in Horror Comics
We all enjoy a good scare, whether sitting around a campfire sharing ghost stories or in a darkened cinema watching alien species hunt their prey. Join writers Bryant Dillon (SOMETHING ANIMAL; IDENTITY THIEF) and David Lucarelli (CHILDREN’S VAMPIRE HUNTING BRIGADE), artist Megan Hutchison (WILL O’ THE WISP), INVADER ZIM’s Dave Crosland, and the HIGH MOON team of David Gallaher and Steve Ellis as they share what inspires them to write and illustrate horror in the sequential art medium, the challenges and benefits they face while working in the genre, and what they foresee in the future of horror comics.
Michele Brittany (Fanbase Press Editorial Manager), Bryant Dillon, David Lucarelli, Megan Hutchison, Dave Crosland, David Gallaher, and Steve Ellis
Women on the Dark Side
A great success at LBCE and Comic-Con International: San Diego returns to Long Beach! Not all female artists/creators are about unicorns and glittery vampires and silly pseudo-bondage. Some women create truly dark and challenging art and content, with just enough humor and whimsy to counterbalance all that darkness. Whether it’s comic books, novels, or art, these are some of the women who are creating content that connects with the deeper, darker side of all of us.
Barbra Dillon (Fanbase Press), Susan Lee (WRAITH OF LOVE, SHADOW OF THE KNIGHT); Madeleine Holly-Rosing (BOSTON METAPHYSICAL SOCIETY); Janet Joyce Holden (ORIGIN OF BLOOD series, CAROUSEL); Christie Shinn (PERSONAL MONSTERS, SEPULCHRE)
Sunday:
Arthur Suydam (Artist on Marvel Zombies, The Walking Dead, Batman, Army of Darkness) will be drawing free sketches for the first 150 kids ages 14 and under who come to his table on Sunday between 11 and 4.
