QC Anime-zing! is excited to announce new guests for 2011, Russell Lissau and Trevor Mueller, along with the return of Johnny Yong Bosch and Eyeshine. QC Anime-zing!, one of the largest pop culture and anime events in the region, will be coming to The RiverCenter in Davenport, Iowa from June 17-19, 2011.
Johnny Yong Bosch, Lissau, and Mueller will all be hosting their own panels and signing autographs for free during the convention. Eyeshine will be performing on Saturday evening, doing panels, giving out autographs, and selling merchandise and CDs. Lissau and Mueller will also be selling copies of their comics.
Johnny Yong Bosch got his start fighting giant bugs as Adam Park, the Black Ranger on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. It is a role that he would play for three and a half seasons on TV, two motion pictures and two special guest appearances in future Power Rangers seasons.
After Power Rangers, Johnny became very involved in voice acting work for various anime titles; usually landing the lead role. His first major voice acting role was Vash the Stampede in Trigun. He will later go on and play the voices of Kaneda inAkira, Renton in Eureka Seven, Claus in Last Exile, Clair in Heat Guy J, Sakaki in Witch Hunter Robin, Mike in Please Twins, Albert in The Count of Monte Cristo, Kiba in Wolf's Rain, Itsuki in The Melancholy of Haurhi Suzumiya, Ichigo Kurosaki in Bleach and Lelouch Lamperouge in Code Geass.
Johnny’s voice can also be heard in numerous video games. He voices the main character Nero in Devil May Cry 4 and performed voiceover work in Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria, .hack//G.U. , Persona 4, Star Ocean: Till the End of Time,Xenosaga, Wild Arms 4, Disgaea 3, Tales of Symphonia, Tales of the Abyss, Eternal Sonata and Bumblebee in Transformers: War for Cybertron. When Johnny is not voice acting, he is the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of his band Eyeshine.
Eyeshine is a four piece, "edge rock" band originating in West Hills, California. We should probably add something cool in this bio about "how promising we sound" but we'd be lying. Maybe you should just come check us out and let us know what you think. If we suck, please don't throw tomatoes - we prefer a bag of Peanut M&M's, Skittles, Hot Cheetos or Money (unmarked). Hopefully you'll like us and want to be our BFF. Members include Johnny, Maurice, Eddie, and Crystal. More details can be found at www.eyeshine.net or www.myspace.com/eyeshine.
