Zub Tales

This coming weekend is one of my favorite shows, Emerald City Comicon in Seattle, Washington!

Last year we premiered the first SK trade paperback at the show and this year we’re following up with even more goodies.

Emerald City is the first show you’ll be able to purchase Skullkickers Treasure Trove, our oversized hardcover collection of volume 1 & 2 of Skullkickers, packed with bonus material from the issues and never before published extras.

We’ll also have a limited number of CLLDF Skullkickers #13 Sketch Cover Variants, almost a week before the regular issue shows up in comic shops. Buy a copy of this limited run variant and get it sketched on by your favorite artist at the show!

Last, but not least, we’ll have copies of our convention-exclusive Skullkickers World Map! This 18′ x 24′ beauty shows the full depth and breadth of the Skullkickers fantasy world for the first time.

In addition, I’ll be on two panels over the weekend:

Writers Unite! Pitching Your Creator-Owned Comics
Room: 201
Saturday 3:00pm

Creator-owned comics have grabbed the imagination of the comic-reading community all over again and publishers are looking for fresh ideas from a new generation of talent. Listen closely as independent comic creators discuss pitching their hit comic series and offer advice on how to climb to the top of the treacherous submission mountain.

Featuring Jim Zub (Skullkickers), Ray Fawkes (Possessions, Mnemovore, One Soul), Joe Keatinge (Glory, Hell Yeah!), Charles Soule (27, Strongman) and Kurtis Wiebe (Peter Panzerfaust, The Intrepids, Green Wake)

Behind The Table: Con Horror Stories
Room: 3AB
Sunday 11:00am

Join Katie Cook, Jim Zub and friends as they tell tales about what it can be like behind the convention table. Stories like that of a man in California that introduced a fox puppet as his son, to a man in a tiger costume that talked about his removable loincloth… sometimes the folks that go to conventions really are “those weirdoes”. Some stories will make you laugh out loud, some will make you cringe! (May not be appropriate for all ages)

ECCC is going to be great! I hope to see you there!
