New Absolute Universe Comics By Pornsak Picketshote & For SDCC — SDCC signings

This includes a signing at the DC Comics book #4544 on the Friday at noon with Scott Snyder, Nick Dragotta, Hayden Sherman, Deniz Camp and Pornsak Picketshote. Nick Dragotta has also released his signing schedule including that same signing, naming no names, but calling it the "Absolute Crew Signing DC Booth".

Now, no Absolute comic books by Pornsak Picketshote have been announced. But I scooped the announcement that he would be one of the creators on the Absolute books in July last year. A comic book editor, writer, and film director known for editing Sweet Tooth, WE3, The Losers, Testament, and The Unwritten, as well as writing The Infidel, The Good Asian and also launched The Horizon Project at Image Comics. Is he is part of the Absolute Crew signing on Friday, will they announce his Absolute title on Thursday? And what about Che Grayson?
