[Kevin Boyd]

Watch for an announcement next week!

21 hours ago, Kevin Boyd said:

The draft schedule is up, and changes are being made. 

McNiven, McGuinness and Larsen have all asked for table signings, so those listed signings are scrapped. Jeff Lemire will only be in the signing area. 

Looks like that Canadian singer/comic book writer is coming after all... details pending...

Hey Kevin, would you happen to know if the VIP line perk still works at table signings?

[TheRealVenom]

I wouldn't imagine so. VIP is generally only good for the signing areas in the south building and thats it.  It's kind of a bummer they did that as it will make the tiny ally ways really congested on a saturday. I hope there would be some staff on hand to form lines.

Also Kevin, if you had anything to do with booking said "singer/comicbook writer"  i'm buying you lunch!

[VictorCreed21]

Ya, I thought that was the reason for the signing areas.

[Kevin Boyd]

Edited after reviewing the rules. The VIP pass gets you to the front of the line at the signing area, it doesn't say front of the line at table signings.

Sounds great! Thanks Kevin.

Unfortunately, as is usually the case in the time before the show, when crunch time hits, there are some cancellations:

- Karen Gillan

- Tom Wilson

And on the comics side:

- Greg Smallwood  

[Kevin Boyd]

Here are the table assignments for Pro Comic Guests. I expect to be making some adjustments right to the day of, as there are usually last minute changes and cancellations.

This year I've added a grouping element. All guests working within a group represented in the alley will have the same table number representing their block of tables.

Kevin... I love you!

woohoo!

 

[dOubleO]

Will CGC be accepting CCS and reholding at the CON?

Thanks

[TheRealVenom]

Kevin, I'm seeing conflicting reports Re: Lights at the signing area BB

Now, i know for a FACT the signing area is set up for VIP passholders to use said express pass, It even states right on the back of my ticket that it includes said area but i'm seeing reports on facebook from Fan Expo staff that VIP is not allowed in this area for the lights signing. Can you please confirm my vip pass will work for her signing? 

I've gotten MANY sigs in the signing area previously using my vip pass and this should be no different.  I'd think this would be false advertising from Informa if they deny vips this PAID privilege.  No where does it state that VIP is not good for any type of special signing here.

Included is a pic of the back of my VIP badge.

If you could look into this matter it would be greatly appreciated. I know the south building is your domain so i'm hoping you could clear the air here.

[Kevin Boyd]

I'm looking into this, but there is a VIP lane for BB and I don't see why it would not be used unless there is a contractual issue. I'll see what I can find out.

[TheRealVenom]

Thanks Kevin. Suffice to say i'll be greatly disappointed if not. 

[Kevin Boyd]

I think the person on the FB page was unaware of the VIP lanes in AA, BB.

There is no CC this year, although in a sense it is the Comic Sketch Art section.

Fanstastic! so no issues using my vip pass for Lights then? 

Also no CC? that makes sense. I was wondering why I couldn't find P215 on my map haha 

[Kevin Boyd]

Yes, VIP will be honoured at the Lights signing.

CGC Only takes submissions at Fan Expo Canada. No onsite anything except subbing which they take back to the U.S. and ship back to you when they're done. Kind of lame.
