WonderCon! Batman haircuts! DC Comics! And Unicorn Power!
Man, is it time for another convention already? Once again, WonderCon is coming to San Francisco, and I'm moderating three panels this year (well, moderating two, and serving as co-moderator/co-panelist for one). Please check 'em out if you're at WonderCon this weekend:
Friday, April 2
2:00-3:00 Hero Initiative and "Ed Hannigan: Covered"- Hero Initiative president Jim McLauchlin and Cartoon Art Museum curator Andrew Farago preview the Gallery's "Ed Hannigan: Covered" exhibit. See some of the great art that will be up for auction and catch the world debut of the Ed Hannigan video, celebrating the works of the great artist. And hit the Museum Friday night at 8:00 pm for a great party! Room 232/234
Sunday, April 4
11:30-12:30 Spotlight on Judd Winick: The Ugly Truth!- WonderCon special guest Judd Winick (Batman, Justice League: Generation Lost) -- comics writer, cartoonist, and "reality TV has-been" (Judd's choice of words, not ours!) -- is holding court, taking questions, and battling back all comers in a no-holds-barred Q&A. The controversial creator will be discussing new work, old hullabaloos, and how he's come to "love the haters" with the Cartoon Art Museum's Andrew Farago. And there may be cookies. Room 220
1:00-2:00 From Page to Screen- WonderCon special guests Peter S. Beagle (The Last Unicorn), Jimmy Palmiotti (Painkiller Jane), Tim Powers (On Stranger Tides, the basis for the next Pirates of the Caribbean movie), and Greg Rucka (Whiteout) talk about their own experiences in seeing their creations make the move to the big-and small-screen. The Cartoon Art Museum's Andrew Farago moderates. Room 103
***
And I should also mention that I'll be at The Cartoon Art Museum's fundraising party on Friday night. If we receive $5,000 in donations by Friday night, I'll get a Batman logo shaved into my hair. You can check the progress on that here. We're still about $3K short, so tell your friends and any of my enemies who might want to see this happen.
