I'm very happy (and flattered) to be a special guest at this year's San Diego Comic-Con. Does that mean I'll be poolside, sipping bourbon and reading a trashy novel? Hell no. My ass will be in plenty of panels and signings. Such as...
Dark Horse: (Super)Powered by Creators
The latter half of 2012 saw the return of two of Dark Horse's classic characters, Ghost and X, the appearance of new faces like Michael Avon Oeming's The Victories and Francesco Francavilla's The Black Beetle, and the reimagination a hero from yesteryear, Captain Midnight! Join Dark Horse publisher Mike Richardson, PR director Jeremy Atkins, and a cast of the industry's top talent, including Joe Casey (Catalyst, Sex), Francesco Francavilla (The Black Beetle), Duane Swierczynski (X, Two Past Midnight), Joshua Williamson (Captain Midnight, Masks and Mobsters), Tim Seeley and Mike Norton (Revival, The Occultist), along with comics newcomer Donny Cates (Buzzkill), for a look at an exciting new cast of characters!

Keep 'Em At the Edge of Their Seats
The gory, gruesome, and paranoia-inducing elements in these novels will take readers on a jet-fueled ride to the dark side. These writers spare no expense to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up with stories that will surprise you at every turn. Their protagonists solve crimes, kick ass, and don't let anyone-or anything-stand in their way. Thrill to the discussion with James Rollins (Eye of God), Duane Swierczynski (Point and Shoot), Stephen Blackmoore (Dead Things), Charlie Huston (Skinner), Jeffrey J. Mariotte (Season of the Wolf), and Roger Hobbs (Ghostman), led by David Mariotte of Mysterious Galaxy.

The Pole With Soul: Spotlight on Duane Swierczynski
Con special guest Duane writes violent, bloody, pulpy comics (Judge Dredd, X, Bloodshot) and violent, bloody, pulpy novels (Fun & Games, Point & Shoot, Severance Package). But deep down inside, he's a sweetheart. Which is why he's inviting you to hang out with him for a special afternoon of prizes! Surprise guests! A soul-searching Q&A! And a hug. (Okay, maybe not a hug.)

Judge Dredd Comics: IDW and Rebellion
You'll get 20 years in an Iso-Cube if you miss this one! Join IDW's Dirk Wood and Chris Ryall, along with Judge Dredd writer Duane Swierczynski, 2000AD's Ben Smith, creatorsHenry Flint and John Higgins, and more for a drokkin' good time discussing everyone's favorite Mega-City One judge.

Room 9
You'll also be able to catch me at the Hachette (home of Mulholland Books!) booth at 11 a.m. on Thursday and the Dark Horse booth right after that at noon, joined by crazy-talented X artist Eric Nguyen, where we'll both be signing something exclusive (and free). There's also a group signing following that "Keep 'Em at the Edge" panel at 5:30, and I'll be at the IDW booth at 10 a.m. on Saturday. Otherwise, look for the drunk guy at the pool* with a copy of a Jackie Collins** novel fanned out on his ample*** belly.
* There is no pool.
** I've never read a word of Jackie Collins.
*** My belly, shockingly, is not as ample as it used to be.
