BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - August 28, 2015 -
The Baltimore Comic-Con returns to the Inner Harbor the weekend of
September 25-27, 2015 at the Baltimore Convention Center. Avoid
additional lines by purchasing your General Admission, VIP, and Harvey
Awards tickets now! In addition to our previous announcement for
Neal Adams, the Baltimore Comic-Con is delighted to welcome his "clan",
Zeea Adams, Buzz, and Peter Stone, to our 16th annual show.

Ever the revolutionary, Neal Adams
has decided to officially institute a new program at comic shows,
starting at the Baltimore Comic-Con. While Neal sits at his table
(#2010), and in full view of everyone who is curious or would like to be
part of the experience, he will paint and/or draw one major
illustrations for the full time while he is at the convention. He will
interrupt his artwork creation to sign books or prints, and to do
sketches and commissions. Adams has purchased a portable easel that he
says is perfect for the job, and it is jammed-packed with paints, inks,
and watercolor so that he can create an illustration from beginning to
end right there at the convention. If there are complicated commissions
that can't be done quickly, he will do them at his hotel in the
evenings where he has a full drawing set-up, but during the day at the
convention, he will be working on the large pieces.

Zeea Adams began
her coloring career under the tutelage of her artist/painter father,
Neal Adams and colorist mother, Cory Adams. She started coloring,
naturally, on Continuity Comics with the occasional stint at Valiant and
Red Line Comics. She worked both using watercolors and, later,
Photoshop. When things went digital, Neal and Zeea pioneered advertising
animatics, techniques that years later would be adapted for motion
comics.
Always having the most fun with special effects and explosions, she joined in to work on the last 3 episodes of The Astonishing X-Men: Gifted
motion comic. Zeea now finds the greatest pleasure in returning to her
coloring roots. Zeea will be water coloring Neal's prints at the
convention and will have them for sale at her booth, #2214.

Buzz is a comic book artist known for his work on JSA, Atomika, Vampirella, Luna, X-Factor, Impulse, and Shi,
to name just a few. A very popular and sought after commission artist
among the art collectors and the comic-book convention circuit.
Buzz
is also a multi-EMMY award winning commercial artist who has worked
with CBS, FOX, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the United States Marine
Corp.Buzz will also be doing full finished pieces at table #2214 for
people to watch and buy, as well as getting commissions from him.

Peter Bowditch Stone has completed his first novel, Shattered Krystal which
will be available at the Baltimore Comic-Con in hard copy, or you can
buy it through Amazon. Peter has worked in comic books (Continuity
Comics and Now Comics), animation (Disney's They Spoke Out), live action, advertising, and video editing (Astonishing X-Men Motion Comic). Starting as an assistant to Neal Adams, he learned the comic book industry from one of the legends of the field.
His
comic book stories feature Armor, Megalith, Samuree, the Hybrids,
DEATHWATCH 2000 and The Rise of Magic, Mr T, Bucky O'Hare, and many
more. His stories have been illustrated by Ernesto Infante, Rudy Nebres,
Larry Stroman, Michael Golden, Mark Texiera, Alex Nino, Mark Beachum,
Trevor Von Eeden, and Neal Adams.
Check
out his new novel, which he will be selling at booth #2214 and making
himself available to advise on publishing and offer his services as a
writer. Pete will also have prints for sale of Continuity characters
with whom he is associated as writer.
"This
is an awesome opportunity!" said Marc Nathan, promoter of the Baltimore
Comic-Con. "To get to see three artists of this caliber and renown
creating pieces live and in-person is unique, and we're honored that
Neal has chosen the Baltimore Comic-Con as his inaugural show to launch
this feature. I can't wait to see this in action, and I'm sure any fan
of artwork attending the show feels the same way!"
