Joe Quesada writes from San Diego Comic-Con in his newsletter "I'll Be Hosting "Mad Cave's Industry-Shaking Comic's Secret Revealed!" Panel" running in an hour and a half, from 1:30-2:3pm in  Room 29CD,

"So, waddaya know. My buddy, Mark Irwin, President of Mad Cave Studios, rang me up with an offer. As a subscriber to the newsletter, he read my half-joking offer to be on anyone's panel and asked if I'd be available to host Madcave's 10th Anniversary celebration. At first, I thought he was just pranking me, but as it turns out, he took the bait. As a huge fan of Mark and Madcave, I was flattered to be asked. But I said no. While we've discussed my doing covers for them sometime in the future (I love me some Flash Gordon!), I told him it would be weird hosting their 10th Anniversary panel without a tangible connection to Mad Cave yet. Then he sent me this graphic, a link to some cryptic videos, and told me about this "industry-shaking" announcement they were making, and I knew I had to be a part of it."

Joe Quesada To Reveal "Idaho's Biggest Comic Book Publisher" Today

"Have you seen the "Idaho's Number One Comic Book Company" teasers that have been running for the last two weeks? Yeah, it turns out that's Mad Cave, and the big reveal will be at the panel. If you haven't seen them, you can catch them all here. Mark had me at "Big Reveal" and probably should have led with it because anyone who knows me knows how much I love schtick like this. So, if you're at the con and not doing anything between 1:30 and 2:30 PM, come down and say hello. It's going to be an absolute blast. And if you're not at the con, I'm sure you'll hear about it anyway. Okay, it's time to get some coffee; these commissions on my list aren't going to draw themselves. You're Amazing!"

No, Joe Quesada, you are Amazing. And you also live in Idaho… here is one of those Idaho's Number One Comic Book Company teasers. Might Joe Quesada's involvement be a little more than just hosting a panel? Mad Cave Studios are already publishing a comic by Dan DiDio. It only makes sense that they would publish something from Joe Quesada as well…
