Whether you’re excited about trying to score a mini original from Patrick Ballesteros, getting a signing from Tilly Bridges for her Begin Transmission: The Trans Allegories of the Matrix, or picking up a truly looney sketch from Robert Griggs, we’ve got you covered with the latest WonderCon news.
Let’s take a look at the news you might have missed:

- What’s up, Doc? Robert Griggs, a character designer and illustrator on Looney Tunes Cartoons and Tiny Toons Looniversity showed off more of his original sketches he will have available at #C-23 in Artists Alley.
Still filling out the roster of available sketches. Forgot how much fun Beast and Roger Rabbit are to draw. Can’t help but draw Wile E. Coyote more.
