Last Minute Addition - LEE WEEKS!

 

 

The Great Allentown Comic Con! is proud to announce that the Lee Weeks will be attending our upcoming March 17th Show!

 

Lee Weeks made his professional comics debut in the 1980s, penciling, inking, and lettering a short story ("Friends Don't Let Friends Drive Drunk") in Tales of Terror #5, a horror anthology published by Eclipse Comics. He is best known for his work for Marvel Comics on Daredevil Vol. 1 series (1990 - 1992), where he penciled the Last Rites storyline. It featured the fall of the Kingpin and is a sequel of sorts to Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's Born Again.

 

Other titles he is well known for include: Batman, Gambit, Spiderman, Captain America, The Incredible Hulk and Captain Marvel just to name a few. He illustrated the Juggernaut storyline in Amazing Spider-man and recently has been writing and drawing a Daredevil project In sum it could be said that the list of characters Lee has not touched during his long career is shorter that those which he has influenced.

 

He will be available for only a limited time during the day from 12-4pm, so be sure to arrive early and secure a spot in line to see him! Rumor has it he also knows a few good card tricks. So be sure to stop by and ask him to show you one!

 

For more about Lee please check out Modern Masters Volume 17: Lee Weeks - a definitive 128 page book chronicling his childhood, career in comics, and faith in Jesus Christ.

 

Or you can email us! - info@allentowncomiccon.com

 

Thanks and see you all at the show!
