The Final names for LSCC are released. This makes a total of 74 US, UK and European comic creators the largest gathering of mainstream comic creators for any comic convention in the UK.

 

Mark Farmer

He is primarily known these days as an inker, although he has done some penciling as well (for instance, collaborating with writer Len Wein on an early 1980's run on Green Lantern). Like nearly all those involved in the British Invasion, Farmer got his start at the British weekly comic 2000 AD, where he penciled such series as Judge Dredd and Anderson: Psi Division

.Farmer usually forms a team with writer/penciler Alan Davis. The pair, who first teamed on 1987's D.R. and Quinch for 2000 AD, have worked together on such titles as Marvel Comics Excalibur, Avengers, Hulk, Thor, Fantastic Four and Uncanny X-Men. For DC their work includes Superman, LSH, JSA, JLA and Green Lantern.

He is currently working on the new Fantastic Four series.

Paolo Pantalena

 

Paolo is the newest rising star in the world of comic art. His first published work came from Zenescope working on Sinbad, followed immediately by Marvel knocking at his door with What if! He then collaborated on War of Kings: Darkhawk but it was his attention to detail that caught the eye of Marc Silvestri at Top Cow, where he was given the mini-series Epoch to draw as well as working on Artifacts. He is currently involved in bringing several amazing projects to life including an upcoming book for Aspen and the cover art to Zenescope’s Madhatter.

Paolo will be at the Bazinga Studios stand, located in the main exhibitor section. Please refer to the program guide for specific placement.

Just curious, how much will you be selling those for? Hot scantily clad women comic books are not really my thing - prefer men in spandex :facepalm: but it's an awesome cover with Tower Bridge and the Union Flag england-flag-04.gif

 

In any case, looking forward to meeting you and picking up some supplies.

 

P.S. Clearly she's not British, probably Eastern European :whistle:
