PANELS

Sunday

CBLDF: You Can’t Draw That! Live Art Jam
12:15pm – 1:45pm • Room 5AB

Join top artists Tim Seeley (Revival, Hack/Slash), Gabo (The Life After, Elephantmen), Jeromy Cox (Zombie Love, colorist on Promethea), and more to mark the 60th Anniversary of the Comics Code and celebrate its recent demise by creating live art before your eyes. The only rule is that it would have been forbidden by the Comics Code! Artists will talk about censorship and make once-in-a-lifetime art! Get a chance to watch live art made before your eyes, learn about censorship, and bid to win the pieces made here to benefit the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund.
