In just 10 days, we will be together, feasting on overpriced (but delicious) food trucks and spending our money buying all the art. Until then, let us tide you over with WonderCon news on autographs from comics legends, art prints and originals for every taste, and a tote that really puts a cap on this edition.
Let’s take a look at the news you might have missed:
- Cowabunga! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman will be signing at the Torpedo Comics booth during WonderCon on Friday, April 1 from 12pm-3pm, and again on Saturday, April 2 from 3:30pm-5:30pm.
- You scream, I scream, we all scream for the Pumpkin King. What’s this? Well it’s a new Nightmare Before Christmas inspired ice cream cone print by artist Kai B. Parker.
- We’ll have more Patrick Ballesteros news for you in the morning, but until then, let us tide you over with a peek at some of his Mini Originals for WonderCon. Which is your favorite?
Seeing how many of these I can get done for Wondercon. Stay tuned folks!#minioriginals #wondercon2022 #exclusive #illustration #sketch #dune #turningred pic.twitter.com/bGc6gv8U4d

- Your wallet’s going to be in truffle when you see how cute this adorable yellow variant of artist Megan Porch’s mushroom tote. Just like the pink version, this is a tote that’s sure to have so mush-room for all of your belongings. Grab it at Artists Alley #C-62.
Decided to do a yellow and purple version of my Mushroom bags too! These are my favorite colors. 🙂 They'll also be at Wonder Con! pic.twitter.com/NrB85RiFll
