Co-promoters of Long Beach Comic Con Phil Lawrence and Martha Donato are both thrilled to announce the guest list additions, with Lawrence saying, “We’re proud to announce several of our very favorite creators will be attending the show this October. Jimmy, Amanda and Mark have been with us since the beginning and we’re so pleased to welcome them back. Darwyn, Marsha and Stephanie are joining us for the first time and we couldn’t be happier about that. We’re also looking forward to enjoying a unique schedule of programming which will include Master Classes with top talent in the business.”

Mark Waid added, "I'm a huge fan of this convention--it's absolutely one of my favorites, and not just because it's so diverse and well-run. I also love it because it's a terrific venue for fans and pros to co-mingle and learn from each other. Can't wait to be back!"
