Title: C2E2 - Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo
Post by: Mike Carroll on 23 April, 2013, 07:05:05 AM
Well, we're departing shortly for Chicago for C2E2 (http://www.c2e2.com) - the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo, taking place from Friday 26th to Sunday 28th!

If you're there, don't forget to visit stall #1030 in the exhibitor's hall for all your 2000AD and Judge Dredd goodies!

Be sure to check out the website for the live streaming of the panel DREDD and Beyond: The Whole Wide World of 2000 AD on Friday, April 26th, at 19:45 PM (Chicago time: in GMT that's 01:45 on Saturday morning, unless I've miscalculated, which is entirely possible given that I've only had about three hours' sleep). The panel's description:



              It's been an incredible year for 2000 AD with the DREDD movie and critically-acclaimed stories such as Day of Chaos, Brass Sun and Trifecta – but what's in store for the Galaxy's Greatest Comic in 2013? Three of our biggest Creators – Andy Diggle (The Losers), Paul Cornell (Wolverine) and Michael Carroll (Judge Dredd) – join Heidi MacDonald from The Comics Beat to talk about why you should be reading 2000 AD right now!

Plus there may be some fairly exclusive - and very exciting - news about forthcoming 2000AD stuff...!

-- Mike
P.S.: Also, April 28th is Leonia's birthday! Please send her lots of presents and / or good wishes. Though presents would be preferred...

Exclusive and exciting 2000 AD news you say, that's my favourite type.
Have fun and spread the word!

Uh you tease you, I wonder what it will be, very exciting.

Also good to see the topic of the panel. While Dredd deservedly gets a lot of attention and plaudits, 2000ad greatest strength isn't a signal character but its diversity. So now we have Dredd really breaking into the US consciousness (I hope), its a good time to start pushing the other stories some more.

I wonder if I should be excited about Paul Cornell being on the panel. I'd love to see him back!
