We're now less than two weeks away from a weekend of geeking it up at the UK's biggest con, London Super Comic Convention.
And finally the organisers have released schedules for both days, giving us a bunch of panels to look forward to, and an extensive list of creators to chat up at signing tables.
Check out the full timetable below and get your plan sorted - there's going to be loads to see and do.
SATURDAY PANELS
12.00 – 12.45 CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF MARVEL’S GREATEST CHARACTERS
2013 commemorates 50 years of Marvel’s greatest characters: Amazing Spider-Man, The Avengers, X-Men, Iron Man (with his introduction in Tales of Suspense #39) and Nick Fury (with his first appearance in Sgt Fury #1). Our panellists reveal the behind the scenes evolution of the characters.
13.00 – 13.45 DAREDEVIL THROUGH THE AGES
David Mack, Bill Sienkiewicz and Klaus Janson discuss the Man without Fear’s evolution from “sightless swashbuckler” to their collaboration with Brian Michael Bendis on “Daredevil: End of Days”.
14.00 – 15.00 DREDD AND BEYOND: THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD OF 2000AD
A chance to see Brian Bolland, Ian Edginton, Carlos Ezquerra, Alan Grant and John Wagner discussing all things 2000AD.
15.15 – 16.00 COSPLAY COMPETITION
Watch the cosplayers parade across the floor in their full regalia. They will enter the panel room where attendees will pick their favourite costume. Who will be this year’s London Super Comic Convention Cosplay Winner?
16.15 – 17.15 20 YEARS OF TOP COW
Celebrate 20 years of Top Cow with writers, Ron Marz (Artifacts, Witchblade), David Hine (The Darkness) and Matt Hawkins (Think Tank, Aphrodite IX), who will reveal the remainder of Top Cow's 2013 plans. For aspiring writers, Top Cow's now annual Talent Hunt is quite possibly the only opportunity for unknown writers to get published at an established publisher today. Find out about the 2013 plans. All attendees will receive a special limited edition Aphrodite, Darkness and Witchblade mini-lithograph that all three writers will sign for FREE!
SUNDAY PANELS
11.30 – 12.15 SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN
Doc Ock replacing Peter Parker as Spider-Man in Amazing Spider-Man #700 definitely raised the interest levels and the first issue of Superior Spider-Man continues the debate to a new level. With Dan Slott attending we couldn’t resist the opportunity to discuss the event and the reaction of comic readers everywhere.
12.30 – 13.30 COMIC GEEK SPEAK PRESENTS: CREATORS VS FANS
Members of the audience will have their chance to compete against our panel of creators.
13.45 – 14.45 ZENESCOPE: GRIMM FAIRY TALES ANIMATED
Zenescope Art Director, Anthony Spay, hosts a panel to show off the pilot episode of Grimm Fairy Tales Animated. Anthony will be on hand to share some details about the pilot and talk to the fans of the comics about what to expect next from Zenescope.
15.00 – 15.45 BATMAN THROUGH THE AGES
In Neal Adams, Brian Bolland, Gary Frank, and David Finch we are lucky to have 4 creators who can discuss Batman’s journey from the 1960s to present day. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to ask them about the Dark Knight’s evolution.
16.00 – 16.45 JUDGE MINTY SCREENING
With the attendance at the show of Judge Dread creators Carlos Ezquerra and John Wagner, a screening of the not-for-profit fan film, Judge Minty, couldn’t be more opportune.
