It's July, and that means it's almost time for Comic-Con International in San Diego, California from July 23-27. Our presence will be more limited this year, and Margaret is not available this time, so we're partnering up with our good friends at Twilight Creations and you can find us at Booth #4914. So you'll be able to buy copies of the Demon Hunters Role Playing Game and Humans!!!. Jamie Chambers will be at the show meeting with current and new licensing partners, sometimes accompanied by friend and illustrator Lindsay Archer. The show will also feature several members of Dead Gentlemen Productions and a screening of The Gamers: Dorkness Rising. Jason "Tasslehoff Burrfoot" Marsden will be at the show and speaking on several panels. And this is just a warm-up to the really big stuff that's coming up next month for Gen Con and Dragon*Con...

Update: Cam Banks will also be attending Comic-Con, working with fellow author and friend Jim Butcher (of Dresden Files fame). You can find Cam at the Dabel Brothers Publishing Booth (#2206), or in the bar next to Jamie sipping a mojito. Updated Again: Jamie and Lindsay will be signing in the Browncoats Booth (A7/A8) on Thursday at 4:30 - 7:00 PM. Come say hello!
