Thanks for a Great 2010 Baltimore Comic-Con!
Join us again August 20-21, 2011!

BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - November 12, 2010 - They had started lining up before dawn. By the time the doors opened at 10:00 AM (and the oppressive August heat had already taken hold), the line was wrapped around the side of the Baltimore Convention Center and snaked across the street. These fans knew something big was happening, and they wanted to be among the first in the door. Soon, they'd be face to face with some of the biggest names in the comic book industry - as well as plenty of promising talent.

It was the 11th annual Baltimore Comic-Con, and the weekend ended up being a phenomenal success.

Of course, the success wouldn't be possible without the hard work of a lot of people - and it's time to say a big "Thank You!" to everyone involved. Special thanks go to SPAWN creator Todd McFarlane, who joined us on Saturday August 28 and was, as expected, a major hit with the fans. And to our guests, exhibitors, retailers, partners, and especially the fans who continue to join us each year - THANK YOU. Without you, Baltimore Comic-Con simply wouldn't happen.

With the 11th annual Comic-Con a great success, the team is already thinking of ways to make 2011 an even bigger year for comics fans. On the calendar for August 20-21, 2011, next year's Comic-Con will feature guests you won't want to miss - we've already lined up Frank Cho (New Ultimates), David Finch (Batman: The Dark Knight), Barry Kitson(Iron Man 2.0), David Petersen (Mouse Guard), Brandon Peterson (Ultimate Extinction), and Stan Sakai (Usagi Yojimbo).

Comic-Con promoter Marc Nathan couldn't be happier with 2010's Comic-Con, but he knows the only way from here is up. "We were thrilled with the show in 2010. My team and I had a great time putting on the show, and the feedback from our partners, guests, and, most notably, the fans that came to the show has been great. Each year, we find new ways to make Comic-Con bigger and more exciting," Marc said. "2011 is going to be a very big year."

That's an exciting prospect, because this year's convention was bigger than it's ever been. Attendance was up 20% from last year, the costume contest (in its second year) was so big we had to knock down a wall to make room (where's the Hulk when you need him?), and aspiring artists packed the room for a highly successful Artists' Workshop led by comic book legends Klaus Janson and Howard Chaykin. For our fifth year running, we hosted the Harvey Awards, and we're already looking forward to our sixth year!

We can only imagine what's in store for next year, so mark your calendars now! Details on guests, the Harvey Awards, industry exclusives, and programming leading up to the show can always be found at our website, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and ComicSpace pages.

I've been having a super productive month. Check it out:

CURSED PIRATE GIRL COLLECTION RELEASE PARTY AND EXHIBIT
November 20, 2010

Written and drawn by Jeremy Bastian, Cursed Pirate Girl is the
all-ages comic book tale of a salty little adventurer traveling in
search of her lost father, one of the dreaded Pirate Captains of the
mythical Omerta Seas. Rendered in a stunning pen and ink style the
story begins in Port Elisabeth, Jamaica in the year 1728, and quickly
heads across- and beneath- the waves. November 2010 sees the release
of the graphic novel collection of the first 3 sold out issues of this
amazing comic book series. Challengers Comics + Conversation in
Bucktown is throwing a special pirate-themed release party for this
grand occasion and will be bringing Jeremy Bastian to the store for
the event. There will be a variety of prints and books of Jeremy’s
work available as well as a special appearance by Cursed Pirate Girl
character Kildanny! Challengers will also have a limited edition
exclusive cover of the graphic novel available. This event is open to
all ages. The story is like the fairy tales we all grew up with-
perfect for kids, but with bits that will make them shudder… If you’re
an adult who likes Terry Gilliam movies, or movies like The Princess
Bride, you’ll love this more than the kids do.

“It’s all too rare that I see work that is truly original- and I
almost never see work THIS original- Jeremy Bastian is a genius.”
-Mike Mignola, Eisner Award winning creator of Hellboy

"A throwback to classic storytelling that any age can enjoy."
-David Petersen, Eisner Award winning creator of Mouse Guard

"Clearly he’s kidnapped his own inner child, plied her with enough
Victorian sweets to keep her up for days, and then chained her to a
drawing board in a tiny room..."
- Jackson Publick, creator of the hit [adult swim] cartoon series The
Venture Brothers

"I LOVE Cursed Pirate Girl- it is a bright light in a vast sea of sameness!"
-Charles Vess, World Fantasy Award winning artist of The Sandman and Stardust

"Authentic and timeless and wonderfully bizarre- this looks like
something from 1892 but is totally ahead of its time- I wish I’d
thought of it!"
-Gerard Way, Eisner Award winning creator of The Umbrella Academy and
lead singer of rock band My Chemical Romance

"Combines the endearing qualities of classic children's books with a
modern-day sensibility. The results are whimsically naive and
genuinely hip!"
-Gary Gianni, Eisner Award winner and artist of the legendary
newspaper strip Prince Valiant

"Cursed Pirate Girl is our generation's Alice in Wonderland."
-Gail Potocki, award-winning Symbolist painter; The Union of Hope and Sadness

HACKING AND SLASHING EVERY MONTH
Hack/Slash resumes monthly schedule with all-new ongoing

Berkeley, CA - 10 November 2010 - Since coming to Image Comics, Tim Seeley's HACK/SLASH has been more popular than ever, with sold out printings of the first two HACK/SLASH omnibuses and the success of HACK/SLASH: MY FIRST MANIAC, the four-issue miniseries that inaugurated the series' move to Image.

In February, HACK/SLASH returns with an all-new monthly series written by creator Tim Seeley and drawn by MY FIRST MANIAC artist Dan Leister.

"We've brought in a bunch of new readers with our move to Image, and now felt like a great time to get back into an ongoing series!" Seeley says. "The new series will continue the kind of stories Hack/Slash readers love while being totally accessible to newbies!"

"We couldn't be happier to have an ongoing HACK/SLASH series as part of our 2011 line-up," adds Image Publisher Eric Stephenson. "Tim's a fantastic talent and HACK/SLASH manages to compliment our other horror titles without covering the same ground."

HACK/SLASH returns this February in all-new ongoing series by the creative team behind the hit HACK/SLASH: MY FIRST MANIAC mini! Cassie Hack, killer of killers, and her partner Vlad hunt a slasher who haunts a small town's Make Out Point. Meanwhile, Cat Curio, Former Teen Detective, searches for the man who put her in a coma and the murderous cult that employed him. What she finds will set up the biggest HACK/SLASH story yet.

AMC’s “The Walking Dead” is based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics. Kirkman serves as an executive producer on the project and three-time Academy Award-nominee Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) serves as writer, director and executive producer.

David Alpert from Circle of Confusion and Charles “Chic” Eglee (Dexter, The Shield, Dark Angel) serve as Executive Producers.



“The Walking Dead” tells the story of the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home. The comic goes on to explore the challenges of life in a world overrun by zombies who take a toll on the survivors, and sometimes the interpersonal conflicts present a greater danger to their continuing survival than the zombies that roam the country. Over time, the characters are changed by the constant exposure to death and some grow willing to do anything to survive.



Shot on location in Atlanta, “The Walking Dead” is led by a cast that includes Lincoln (“Teachers,” Love Actually) as Rick Grimes, Jon Bernthal (“The Pacific,” The Ghost Writer) as Shane Walsh, Sarah Wayne Callies (“Prison Break”) as Lori Grimes, Laurie Holden (“The Shield,” Stephen King’s The Mist) as Andrea, Jeffrey DeMunn (Stephen King’s The Mist, The Green Mile) as Dale, Steven Yeun (“The Big Bang Theory”) as Glen, Emma Bell (The Bedford Diaries) as Amy and Chandler Riggs (Get Low) as Carl Grimes.

JOHN WILLIAMS’ VANGUARD FILMS ANNOUNCES OVERALL PRODUCING/DIRECTING DEAL WITH KUNG FU PANDA DIRECTOR JOHN STEVENSON



Former Lakeshore International President Peter Rogers Heads Up Financing and Distribution Plan For Vanguard’s Eclectic, Multi-Format Animation/Live Action Film Slate



(Santa Monica, CA; November 8, 2010) – John Williams, the original producer of Shrek and President and CEO of Vanguard Films, announced today an overall producing/directing deal with Kung Fu Panda co-director John Stevenson. In addition, Vanguard has formed a strategic alliance with former Lakeshore International President Peter Rogers’ new company, Moviemill, to arrange financing and distribution for Vanguard's impressive projects. Vanguard comes to AFM with an eclectic production slate featuring CG, live action and CG/live action hybrids.



"I’m thrilled that Vanguard’s exciting new range of projects is attracting such top filmmakers and business partners as John Stevenson and Peter Rogers,” says Williams.



Stevenson’s first directing project for Vanguard will be the live action/CGI hybrid Alien Rock Band with musician Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) attached as a producer. Plot revolves around a garage band from Earth which journeys across the Universe to qualify for a shot at superstardom in an Intergalactic Battle of the Bands. It won't be easy – the band will have to out-shred four-armed alien guitarists, face-down tentacled, punker octo-drummers, and fight snarling alien monsters – with music as its only weapon.



"I have been attracted to the slate of existing and new ideas that are coming out of Vanguard,” says Stevenson. “I have had a great time working with John Williams and the gifted creative teams involved in these projects.”



Stevenson, whose credits include such seminal animation projects as Shrek, Madagascar, and James and the Giant Peach, will also direct Vanguard’s CG-animated film Rotten Island, based on the book by Shrek author William Steig about an island where monsters reign free until a beautiful flower changes everything. Newsday called it, "A gorgeously colored picture book, full of monsters, mayhem and a message about the redeeming power of Nature.” People magazine raved, “Not since Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are has there been such a glorious nightmare of a book.”



Among the Vanguard titles that Williams and Stevenson will produce are Buzby, the world's first high speed animated romantic comedy starring fruit flies, written by Jason Mayland with Annie Award-winner Phil Robinson (Hubert's Brain) attached to direct; City of Dragons a live-action martial arts movie in the spirit of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon with supernatural elements set in modern day Shanghai, written by Rob Moreland (Space Chimps), and Atomic Circus, a live-action fantasy adventure story featuring a fast-talking con-man in a post-apocalyptic world, written by Athena Gam.



During Peter Rogers' seven-year tenure as President of Lakeshore International, the sales and distribution arm of Lakeshore Entertainment, the company produced, financed and distributed over 40 films including the Academy Award™ winner Million Dollar Baby, Runaway Bride, The Exorcism of Emily Rose,

Autumn in New York, Crank, The Gift, Arlington Road and The Mothman Prophecies. Before forming Moviemill, Rogers was most recently President of Omega Entertainment, whose film, Conviction, has Oscar-watchers buzzing about the performances of Hilary Swank and Sam Rockwell.



“Vanguard is particularly adept at painting a bull's-eye on entertainment properties that resonate with global audiences,” says Rogers. "I can't imagine a better pairing than the prowess of the Vanguard production team and the creative and technical firepower of a filmmaker such as John Stevenson. They are a great match.”



Vanguard Films is a leading independent animation company and the producer of the independently financed films Space Chimps, Valiant and Happily N'ever After, as well as the live action films Seven Years in Tibet and The Tuxedo starring Jackie Chan. Vanguard’s On the Road, a collaboration with American Zoetrope directed by Walter Salles (The Motorcycle Diaries), has just wrapped principal photography. Its rock ‘n’ roll comedy film Vinyl, shot on location in Wales, is co-written (with Jim Cooper) and directed by Sara Sugarman (Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen). The film is now in post-production.

I-play Announces Dying For Daylight


Based on the Short Stories of Charlaine Harris, the Best-Selling Author of the Sookie Stackhouse Series, Dying for Daylight Will Be Available For PC in Early 2011

NEW YORK, LONDON - November 8, 2010 - I-play, Oberon Media's publishing division and the world's leading multi-platform casual games publisher, today announced an upcoming collaboration with Charlaine Harris, best-selling author of the Sookie Stackhouse series that inspired HBO's hit show "True Blood." The game, titled Dying For Daylight and set to release in early 2011, brings Harris's supernatural storytelling to interactive life for the very first time. The all-new original storyline features her popular character Dahlia, a vampire heroine featured in many short stories by Harris.



"Taking a character into the world of games is great fun and allows us to tell stories and bring characters to life in a whole new way," says Harris. "Just like Sookie, Dahlia is a unique and multi-faceted character. Working with I-play to present her in this new way has been an amazing experience, and I can't wait to hear what fans think of the results."



"Charlaine's stories and characters are a huge contributor to the phenomenon surrounding all things supernatural right now," says Tony Leamer, VP Marketing at I-play. "Her writing is so vivid and her characters so interesting that they are a natural fit for a game. Dahlia is already beloved by a legion of fans and we hope they will love this new story and the way we're telling it."



Charlaine Harris is the latest literary powerhouse to partner with I-play. The casual games publisher has generated more than 50 million downloads across its four book-based franchises. These games include four James Patterson Women's Murder Club titles, several Agatha Christie adaptations, a title based on a Nora Roberts novel and most recently the transformation of The Great Gatsby into an interactive game experience. Working closely with some of the most successful authors and classic literature names of all time, I-play creates top-notch games that are true to the original story, bring life to legendary works and create all-new adventures that are visually stunning, fun to play and incredibly compelling.


Dying For Daylight will be available for PC download in January 2011.
