Big, big week for
Star Wars fans -- and fans of
Knights of the Old Republic.
First off, the second trade paperback of my KOTOR comics series,
Flashpoint, is now on sale. Check
my website for my production notes on the changes from the originals to the collection!
Second, there are several interviews set for the next couple of days. I have interviews set to appear this week on both
Dark Horse's site and
Newsarama -- plus there's one up now at
Silver Bullet Comics
And I have some of the schedule for my appearances at
Star Wars Celebration IV. Yes, Virginia, there is a comics panel. According to the latest information available:
Saturday, 5 p.m. on the Behind The Scenes Stage: Dark Horse Comics
Straight from the Horse's mouth ... what's coming and what's cool in Star Wars comics. Hear from Randy Stradley and Jeremy Barlow (editors), John Jackson Miller and John Ostrander (writers) and Jan Duursema (artist), with Jeremy Atkins.
There's also a general publishing panel which I'm not on but which I'll recommend to all interested in comics:
Saturday, 10:30 p.m. on the Behind the Scenes Stage: Thirty Years of Star Wars Publishing and Continuity
Moderated by Pablo Hidalgo, this panel discusses 30 years of binding the Star Wars expanded universe together. Sue Rostoni, Jonathan Rinzler, and Leland Chee from Lucasfilm; Shelly Shapiro from Random House; Randy Stradley from Dark Horse comics, and Jacob Bronstein from Random House Audio.
And I also have a very tentative signing schedule. I'll be there Thursday through Sunday so I might be at the Dark Horse booth at other times, but the latest sked I have is...
Thursday, May 24
5:00 - 6:00 Dark Horse booth (#1121)
Friday, May 25
1:30 - 3:00 Dark Horse booth (#1121)
Saturday, May 26
12:00 - 2:00 Dark Horse booth (#1121)
Sunday, May 27
11:00 - 12:30 Dark Horse booth (#1121)
I also expect to haunt the
Heroes in Action booth (#918) from time to time, where
Marc Patten (my collaborator on
Crimson Dynamo) has his shop set up.
Check the
Dark Horse site and the
Celebration site for more updates. Hope to see you there!
