NY Anime Fest!

December 5th, 2007 by Dave Roman

I’m super excited about the New York Anime Festival this weekend!

Organized by the same folks who put on the NY Comic Con, this should be a really huge event!

I’ll have a table in the Artist Alley area with my friends, The Comics Bakery, selling a huge assortment of mini-comics, graphic novels, t-shirts, buttons, and wizard rock CDs!

I’ll also be hosting a panel:

Avatar : The Last Airbender - Comics & Magazines
Friday December 7th from 4 PM - 5 PM
Hosted by Nickelodeon Magazine editor, Dave Roman.
Featuring Avatar magazine contributors Alison Wilgus and Tina Lam.

Anime Panel Room (1A06)

A behind-the-scenes look at the various stages of making the Avatar comics that appeared in the official Avatar magazines, as well as the mini-comics packaged with the single disk DVDs. From story pitches to script revisions, and creating final art for print, this is a chance to find out what goes into making a great comic, and what editors actually do all day! BONUS FUN: There will be trivia-bending competition live on stage! Prizes will be won! Cosplaying encouraged!

Another panel that might be worth checking out:

Del Rey & Marvel Comics
Sunday, Dec 9th at 3 PM - 4 PM
Join Del Rey Manga and Marvel Comics for a special announcement!
Manga Panel Room (1A24)

Should be cool!

    You work with Avatar people? SWEET! I wish I could go, but I’m a minor in Utah….Any chance of me buying this stuff online?

    I’ve worked on all the comic projects (except the ones in the YA books).
    It’s been great!

    The DVD comics are packed in with the single disk dvds and can be bought pretty much anywhere. the magazines are sadly off the newsstands by this point.
