Here we go----was actually looking to taking a few months off and getting caught up, but that never goes according to plan doh!

I'm still currently working on constructing me convention schedule for this year----2020 will be big, and I'm trying to plan at least one show overseas, possibly in Italy or Spain if I can find the right one.  I miss London Super Comicon (please bring it back!) and really enjoyed going to England---there was always a nice eclectic guest list there. So this year, I'm going to try and see what's going on outside my comfort zone of the U.S.

My schedule, if you're familiar with my annual con season, pretty much stays the same.  I'll be doing most shows on the East Coast, and I always do SDCC and possibly ECCC as well.

I will continue to update this thread frequently as new things pop up.

First show of the year is GREAT LAKES COMICON, followed by C2E2, maybe ZAPP con in March, East Coast Comicon, Chiller, Monster Mania, frequent signings at Third Eye Comics in Annapolis, MD, etc.  If there are any questions, always feel free to drop me a PM

Keep in mind if you need to add signatures from creators at ANY future / upcoming events or conventions, I can do that for you.   Just please plan accordingly and try to know who I'm adding and where they will be located.  It's up to you to provide me with the information that I need.

Okay---I'm actually pretty excited about these next two shows.  Monster Mania is one of my local staple shows, but it looks like their adding a new show this year called POP MANIA.  Will probably be more comic related too.   Here's the details on both, and I'll need books for these events no less than two days prior to each show. 

MONSTER MANIA CHERRY HILL March 13-15th

Books due in hand no later than March 11th.  I will also be wiling to take posters, prints or lobby cards.

http://monstermania.net/mmc-45-guests/

Guests include Sam Raimi (director Evil Dead), David Harbour (Hellboy, Stranger Things), Danny Trejo, Jackie Earl Haley (Rorschach!!!), Brad Dourif, Chris Sarandon, Catherine Hicks, Alex Vincent (you've got ALL FOUR of your core cast members there from the original 1987 classic CHILD'S PLAY!), Fiona Dourif, Richard Brake, Bill Mossley, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Tom Atkins, Sean S. Cunningham (director of the original 1980 classic FRIDAY THE 13th)---and this is a super rare appearance, FYI.  Sean doesn't typically do appearances---the last time I saw him at a convention was over 10 years ago.  Also at this show, director STEVE MINER, who did Friday the 13th Pt. 2 and Pt. 3(D), Warlock and Halloween H20.   More Friday the 13th actors in appearance include Kane Hodder and Amy Steel.   From the more recent Doctor Sleep, actress Kyliegh Curran.   More to be announced, I'm sure.

POP MANIA Cherry Hill June 5th-7th

All books, posters, prints or lobby cards due in hand by June 2nd

http://monstermania.net/pop-mania-guests/

Guests include Spencer Wilding (Darth Vader from Rogue One), Jon Bernthal, Thora Birch (Gamma from Walking Dead), Kim Coates (Sons of Anarchy), from CLERKS they've got Jeff Anderson and Jason Mewes, Jesse Ventura (and more to be announced as we get closer)

Adding these to the mix of shows that I'll be doing in the next couple months. One right around the corner in just a few weeks, you'll want to take a look at.  Two big guests there include Chip Kidd and David Mazzucchelli.  Neither have done a public appearance/convention in YEARS.   Before you get excited about Mazzucchelli, this may be a ghost.  A lifetime ago he took an issue with certified books, so I might not be able to get these graded.  I am looking into this at the moment.  But I'm more than happy to get books signed if you want them back raw.  Again, I'm looking into the possibility of him approving this.   My rule of thumb here----if you have books, send them.  Better to have them and not need them than to need them and not have them.  

PM ME for more info, please DO NOT post in this thread.  This thread is intended for me to inform members as to what I'm doing, not have a debate.

FANFAIRENYC  Feb. 8 & 9

EAST COAST COMICON  May 15-17th  -- a big one and a favorite for eclectic guests

Books due in hand no later than May 13th

https://www.eastcoastcomicon.com/comic-guests/

Guests include Tom King, Mitch Gerads, Jon Bogdanove (a rare one for you Superman fans), Simon Bisley, Bob Budiansky, Jan Duursema, Steve Englehart, Danny Fingeroth, Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez, Joe Giella, Keith Giffen, Mike Grell, Bob Hall, Joe Jusko, Tom Mandrake, Mike Lilly, Clay Mann, Don McGregor, Todd Nauck, Al Milgrom, Fabian Nicieza, Carl Potts, Jim Salicrup, Walt Simonson, Louise Simonson, Ryan Stegman, Tim Truman, Ty Templeton, Keith Williams and more. 

 Celebs at this show include Dana Barron (Vacation), Cooper Andrews, Michael Cudlitz, Matt Lintz, Ross Marquand, Pollyanna McIntosh, Chandler Riggs, Khary Payton (ALL from the WALKING DEAD cast) ---which isn't bad considering this is not a Wizard World or NYCC show.  I expect the lines will be manageable---they usually are at this event.  There are also several cast members from Red Dead Redemption and The Warriors  https://www.eastcoastcomicon.com/media-guests/

CHILLER THEATER, APRIL 24-26   B

Books, posters or lobby cards needed in hand no later than April 22

http://www.chillertheatre.com

This is one of my staple shows, and the guest list this year (so far) is actually a little different!  There are several guests right now who have either never made a convention appearance (Ronny Cox, who I actually thought has passed away)----to other guests who hardly ever do shows.  And the guest list will just continue to grow.

Currently on deck---- HELEN SLATER (Supergirl, Secret of My Success, Legend of Billie Jean), Tanya Roberts, Ronny Cox (1st ever convention)--you know him from Robocop, Beverly Hills Cop, Deliverance, Total Recall. etc.  Also Heather Thomas, Ricou Browning (original creature from the Black Lagoon), Ian Ziering, Richard Masur (the Thing, Risky Business, The Believers), Ron Thomas (Karate Kid), Ed Gale (Howard the Duck), Chris Owen (American Pie), Burton Gilliam (Blazing Saddles), Tiffany Helm, Monica Keena and many, many more to be announced in the coming months.

So it's looking more and more like zero point zero conventions this year.  Yellow fever trumps Covid, and I have been able to line up some signings.

I will most likely put these creators in their own threads but for the moment I have:

Ed Hannigan (books due in hand 7/27/20)

John Totleben & Steve Bissette (books due in hand 7/27/20)

Alan Weis (books due in hand 8/20/20)

Garth Ennis (books due in hand 8/8/20) POSTPONED

David Anthony Kraft (books due in hand 8/20/20)

Garth Ennis signing has been postponed due to an uptick in cases around the MD area.  The general consensus was to reschedule in October---otherwise there may have been a possibility of Garth having to quarantine for 14 days when he returned to NYC.  I'll keep everyone posted.   The upside to this, is you now have more time to get me your books!
