One week to go!

Renowned comic artist Bob McLeod, who, in addition to impressive comic career, was also the inker on the classic Marvel GI Joe run, will be joining us as a very special guest at this year's show!

Bob McLeod got his start working with Marvel Comics in 1973 and is perhaps best known for co-creating the New Mutants with writer Chris Claremont. Bob has worked as a cover artist, penciller, and/or inker on every major title in the biz including Action Comics, Conan the Barbarian, Spider-man, X-Men, Thunderbolts, GI Joe and a whole lot more! Check out Bob's detailed span of work:
