I’m writing this edition of Under The Tents from Arizona where I feel like burnt toast. It’s HOT but it is one more reason I am super excited to get to San Diego and have a great week. Today’s UTT features news from Patrick Ballesteros, DCD Collects, Now or Never Comics, Amanda Conner & Jimmy Palmiotti, and more.
Here’s what you may have missed:
- Diana Levin will be at San Diego Comic-Con and will be bringing new art along including this piece. That purple really pops! Diana can be found at table N-08.
- Now or Never Comics in San Diego will be hosting Devin Kraft of Neverender and Silence fame for a signing. The signing will be held on Saturday, July 22, 3P – 6P.
Reminder that I'll be signing at @NowOrNeverComic next weekend – I'm packing this weekend, so if there's anything anyone wants me to bring out specifically, check the shop and let me know! https://t.co/3unq14wfR9 pic.twitter.com/bW2bAcWJlc
