Me? I'm probably hitting Valerian with my son.
So with Rob at Comicon, James getting back from assignments overseas, Mark probably reading more Zelda and me actually avoiding doing any real writing, we're going to keep this one short, sweet and to the SDCC point today.
Previously on Panel Patter
- A Study in Legends #6 (Phantom Hourglass by Akira Himekawa) (Mark D.)

- San Diego Comic-Con: Ten Comics Types to See (Rob M.)
Cover of the Next Week
I've read a handful of the Henry & Glenn comics and, while I've passed on some of the other collections of this, I really hope that I remembered to order this new collection from my LCS. According to the Microcosm website, Rob Halford is even writing an introduction to the book.
And if reading about the love of Henry Rollins and Glenn Danzig wasn't enough, you can also add color to that love with the Henry & Glenn Adult Activity and Coloring Book.
This and That
** Rob's at San Diego Comicon this week. You can follow their adventure on the Panel Patter Twitter feed but here's their first day or two at the con.

#TheTick experience at #SDCC2017 is well worth a visit. You hunt clues to be a Chum! Not sure how much swag non press gets but its ace!— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
I am here and oh my God I am already feeling overwhelmed.— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
So many people and it's only preview night! #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017

My official Con backpack broke already. I guess those Tick trades from New England Comics was too much for it. #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
So some observations on #SDCC2017 from preview night, keeping in mind I have slept 90 minutes the past 40 hours or so.— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
First, oh my glob this place is huge. Like, you hear the stories. They are not enough prep. It's BIG. #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Second, while there is a ton of tv movie stuff here....there's also a ton of comics. It's still VERY much a comic con. #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
That being said, just like any other con, I don't know how much of the attendees are buying said comics. But! #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Of my pals in the industry, like @01FirstSecond @OniPress @fantagraphics and @ActionLab looked plenty busy. #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
The individual creator tables weren't as busy, but I see that at most cons. Folks gravitate to presses. Honestly? Me, too. #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Also really liked how the booths handled lines. Warner Brothers was great, ditto Star Wars. FX, Nick, and others all looked good, too.— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Despite my two bags and lots of others with tons of bags, I rarely ran into anyone, either. Good crowd and aisle construction. #SDCC2017— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
R. Sikoryak is signing at @DandQ now at #SDCC2017 ! Go get this signed and scribbled pic.twitter.com/HJOVsRKUqL— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Feel so official, I am in the press room. Lotsa folks with laptops!— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Taking a short break to rest my feet. Had a great interview a little bit ago. Currently watching a Batman with an amazing cape show it off.— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017

Always a pleasure to chat with @boxbrown! It's a good one gang!— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 20, 2017
Buying Trina Robbins coffee. I love ComicCon.— Panel Patter (@panelpatter) July 21, 2017
