Fletcher, Michael Kupperman , Jason Little, Mark Morales, Laurie Sandel, Yuko Shimizu, Ronald Wimberly and Brian Wood.

Other comic book artists attending include Arthur Suydam, Jerry Robinson, Luke Ross, Greg Horn, Christos Gage, Ryan Otley, Alex Saviuk.   Representing the movie and television industries will be Tom Felton (Malfoy from the Harry Potter movies), James Marsters (Spike from Buffy), Kristanna Loken (Terminator 3) and Morena Baccarin of Firefly and V.
