We have some great comic book guests!

After noticing no comic book guests yet on the main DragonCon 2012 Guest List, I was a little down. Comic books are the main thing I'm into. But I've seen some amazing names on the Comics & Pop Art Facebook page last week!! Sometimes they announce guests there before they show up on the main page. In case anyone on here is into comics too, here are the initial guests.
New to DragonCon this year:

Dustin Nguyen (Detective Comics & Streets of Gotham)
Dave Johnson (Amazing cover artist)
Mike Choi (Witchblade, X-Force, Current Fantastic Four covers)
Eric Canete (Avengers: Power Man & Iron Man: Mandarin)

As well as: Tim Sale!! Returning to DragonCon after 2010
The man is truly amazing!

I'm pretty excited now! Some great guests are coming in 2012.

Announcing... the Horror & Dark Fantasy track!

Beginning in 2012, Dragon*Con's Dark Fantasy track will become the Horror & Dark Fantasy track. I'm excited about this change, and I hope that attendees will enjoy our new approach.

Horror & Dark Fantasy is Dragon*Con’s home for suspense, terror, and the macabre. The programming spans from classic monster tales such as “Frankenstein” and “Dark Shadows” to contemporary fare like “True Blood” and the works of Tim Burton. Our stock in trade includes vampires (the scary kind), werewolves (ditto), Cthulhu, and other denizens of the dark side. Features include actor and author panels, musician interviews, discussions about horror films, and other surprises. Hex, Blood, and Rock’n’Roll to the grave… and beyond!
