The Look Of Oni At SDCC '15

Yup, it's about time we start using the SDCC '15 sobriquet…

Invader Zim #1 releases July 8th and Bryan Konietzko (Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra, and staff member on original Invader Zim show) has produced a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive cover for the first issue.

Rick And Morty fans will be able to get an exclusive SDCC cover of issue #1 by Russ Manning award nominee Gabo (The Life After).

Critically acclaimed, fan favorite giant monster prison drama Kaijumax #1's SDCC variant cover will feature a scene of San Diego kaiju destruction by series creator Zander Cannon.

These artists will all be available for signings of their variants at the Oni Press booth (#1833).

Oni Press is pleased to host a number of renowned creators on fan-favorite panels this year at SDCC. Editing Comics with Oni Press, on Thursday 7/9 at 12 pm in Room 9 and moderated by Janelle Asselin (Editor in chief of Comics Alliance and editor of Fresh Romance), will be full of insight on the recent open submissions process, pitching your comic, and the importance of fostering diversity in creating comics accessible to everyone, as well as feature the announcement of new Oni Press titles.

The Return of Invader Zim, on Saturday 7/11 at 2 pm in Room 29AB, is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to plot world domination with Jhonen Vasquez and the legendary creative team on the upcoming Invader Zim comic series, with Q&A questions received via Twitter starting July 1st. Oni Press: Monster Art Battle, on Sunday 7/12 at 11 am in Room 32AB, features three artists, Corin Howell (Bat-Mite, Transformers: Windblade) Gabo (The Life After) and Joey Weiser (Mermin), going head to head on the drawing boards for this all-ages beloved panel with free comics for every attendee.

Signings at the Oni Press booth include star creators such as Invader Zim's Jhonen Vasquez, Rick and Morty's Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, and legendary creator Bryan Konietzko. Tickets for these high-demand appearances will be available at the Oni Press booth prior to the signings and ticket numbers selected for the limited signing spots will be announced at the Oni Press booth and on Oni Press' Twitter 1 hour before signing. Meanwhile, Odd Schnozz and the Odd Squad signing attendees will receive an exclusive Odd Schnozz debut signing poster, limited to 50 units, as well as the chance to get a punk rock portrait sketch from series artist Dennis Culver. Kids are welcome to join Tribe 65 at Junior Braves of the Apocalypse signings for Junior Braves badge pins, scouting lore, learning to read tracks and other campfire activities with the writers of Junior Braves.
