Whether you're dreaming of pitching to the Big Two or building your own universe from scratch, this panel pulls back the curtain. Industry veterans John Barber (Marvel, IDW, PUG-W) and Joseph Illidge (DC, Fairsquare Graphics) bring inside knowledge from Marvel and DC. Kristen Simon (editor, Mad Cave) and Tom Waltz (former creative director, IDW) break down exactly what Mad Cave and IDW want to see from new projects, whether the pitch is original or for a licensed property. And if indie publishing and Kickstarter are calling your name, David Hedgecock (owner, FunTimeGo) and Shannon Denton (Monster Forge, Image, Marvel) have cracked that code and are ready to share it. Moderated by Magma publisher Denton J. Tipton, this panel offers aspiring creators valuable insights.
