Bryan Lee O’Malley, Marc Guggenheim, Jamie Rich, Joelle Jones, Hope Larson…just a few of the people appearing at Oni’s booth. There will be signings, debuts and a talent search!

Festering Romance
By Renee Lott
*Every copy purchased at the show comes with a free Director’s Cut Ashcan featuring an inside look at the cartoonists process from scripting to finishing touches (while supplies last).*
20 year-old college student Janet lives a quiet life in with her spectral roommate Paul. And the more she tries to withdraw, the more the world pushes back. Freya, Janet’s pushy friend, is always setting her up on blind dates, and the most recent (successful) date creates far more turmoil for Janet than happiness. Strangely, it’s the things the fledgling couple have in common that keep them apart. Will their pasts haunt them forever or will they find a way to heal their festering romance?

You Have Killed Me
By Jamie S. Rich and Joelle Jones
*Every copy purchased at the show comes with a limited edition book plate (while supplies last)*
Things just can’t get any worse for Antonio Mercer. A private eye by trade, a dame from his past has re-surfaced in his life as a client along with all of the emotional baggage he thought he’d left behind forever. Of course, this unusual client doesn’t have just any case, her family is mixed up with seriously dangerous people and the body count is just starting to pile up!

Wet Moon, Vol. 5: Where All Stars Fail to Burn
By Ross Campbell
*Don’t forget to pick up your brand new Wet Moon t-shirt!*
There’s lots going on in the tiny town of Wet Moon and the weirdness isn’t going to die down soon. With Cleo and her circle’s attention focused on the big softball game, the dark emotional clouds gathering in the distance have gone unnoticed. Will anybody be ready for the brutal conflict that’s on the horizon?

Special Imprint, Limited Black Cover Version of Wasteland: The Apocalyptic Edition (Hardcover)
*There will be an extremely limited number of these hand bound, black cover versions of the Wasteland Hardcover. Only available at SDCC 2009!*
The Harvey-nominated, critically acclaimed ongoing series gets the deluxe hardcover treatment with this new massive collection! Reprinting the first 13 issues of the series including the fan-favorite “Walking the Dust” prose shorts and a full color gallery of Ben Templesmith’s covers, this impressive tome chronicles the opening adventures of Michael, a mysterious wanderer struggling to find the answers to both his past and his future.
