Denver Comic Con THIS WEEKEND – Schedule Update
I’ll be joining my Young Justice partner-in-crime Greg Weisman at the Denver Comic Con this weekend, so it’ll be a great opportunity to get us BOTH to sign all those Young Justice comic books and prints! And Young Justice fans also won’t want to miss Khary Payton (the voice of Aqualad) and Kelly Hu (the voice of Cheshire) who will also be there!
I’ll be kicking off my time in Denver with the Denver Comic Con Pre-Party on Thursday night starting at 6:00pm at Mile High Comics. So if you’re in the area, come and say hi! (I’ve never been to Denver before and could definitely use suggestions for where to spend my time outside of the convention.)
Once the convention gets underway, you’ll be able to find me at CC9 in the “Comic Book Classroom Corral” area all three days. Here’s a handy map to help you find my table:
Additionally you will be able to find me at the following panels and events:
Young Justice (panel)
Saturday 6/1 3:00pm–3:50pm Room 108-110
This panel will feature Young Justice writer/producer Greg Weisman, Khary Payton (the voice of Aqualad) and myself!
Young Justice Meet-up
Saturday 6/1 7:30pm–8:20pm Room 104
We’ll be convening in Room 104 at the conclusion of the “Nuts and Bolts of Writing Comics” panel (which features Greg Weisman and a host of other powerhouse comics writers.) Greg will join us for photos and an informal chat about Young Justice and its fandom. This will be your best opportunity at the con if you want photos with both Greg and me. Come hang out with us!
Signing at the Aurora Rise Booth
Sunday 6/2 12:00pm-1:00pm Booth 528
Aurora Rise is a Section 501(c)(3) non profit charitable organization founded in the wake of the Century 16 Aurora theater shooting on July 20, 2012. It has been created by victims to help other victims with small acts of assistance and kindness.
I will be spending some time at their booth, signing these black and white 4×5″ Young Justice mini-print cards for FREE. I encourage you while you’re there to check out the cool merchandise, limited edition prints and First EVER Limited Edition Aurora Rise Sketchbook Vol 1 that they’ll have available at the convention! More information on their website.
Comics for *Everyone* in the Family (Panel)
Sunday 6/2 4:00pm–4:50pm Room 103
A discussion of *all-ages* comics – comic books aimed at older and younger readers alike!
With Jeffrey Brown, Dan Parent, Jamal Igle, James Taylor, Mario Gonzales, Greg Weisman and myself.
At my table, I am happy to sign anything you bring me! I will be doing commission sketches ($60 full characters; $30 headshots) and I will have Young Justice trade paperbacks for sale, as well as a few Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes trades and a couple copies of the new Day of Judgement trade paperback. (There’s a story about that last one… ask at your own risk!!) Oh, and let’s not forget…
I’ll have TWO Young Justice prints available at the show, one featuring the Season 1 and Season 2 versions of the core Team, and a new one making it’s debut at this convention featuring the Family Crock: Artemis Crock (aka Artemis), Jade Nguyen (aka Cheshire), Paula Crock (aka Huntress), Lawrence “Crusher” Crock (aka Sportsmaster) and the very young Lian Nguyen-Harper. Like all my 11″×17″ color prints they’ll be available at the convention for $20 each, which is a savings of $10 (plus shipping) over buying them from my Etsy Store. (Yes, the new print will eventually be on Etsy too… after I get back from the convention.) This is your chance to get one of these signed by both me and Greg Weisman, and maybe even some voice actors all in the same weekend!
Of course, stop by my table and show me that you follow my Christopher Jones Comic Art page on Facebook or @ChrisJonesArt on Twitter and get one of two FREE convention exclusive items:
If you’re not able to make it to Denver Comic Con this weekend, you can check out all my planned convention appearances for the coming year on my Appearances Page! Otherwise, I’m looking forward to seeing lots of great cosplay, meeting lots of awesome fans, and just enjoying the convention weekend. I hope I see you there!
