Image Comics at Comic-Con

Sure the Comic-Con programming schedule has finally gone live. And sure you can sift through all four days worth of panels, signings and events. But what if you're just looking for the Image Comics stuff? There's got to be a quicker way to filter all that other stuff out and get to just the Image Comics stuff. Right? Look no further friends, as after the jump are all of Image's panels and signings. Of course the highlights include the Image United crew doing a panel and signing, however there's a slew of other Image Comics talent that shouldn't be overshadowed by the massive reunion. Check the full schedule after the jump and start planning accordingly. IMAGE COMICS SAN DIEGO 2009
