Dark Horse Announces WonderCon 2013 Schedule

Last year, PAX East managed to fall over Easter weekend. It's a big show on a bigger weekend for some, so naturally, the timing wasn't right for everyone to attend. It looks like WonderCon is going through something similar in 2013, as the show is slated to run March 29-31. Have no fear though! Publishers like Dark Horse will be making their presence known at the big show, bringing a ton of talent and exclusives.

Some of the signings will feature the likes of Larry Marder, Josh Williamson, Gene Yang, Dan Parsons, Stan Sakai, Jane Espenson, Brad Bell, Robert Love, David Walker, Eric Nguyen, Georges Jeanty, Andrew Chambliss, Christos Gage, Carlos D'Anda, Gabe Eltaeb, Gerard Way, Aleksi Briclot, Jean-Max Moris, Mat Hart, Matt Kindt, Randy Stradley, Neil Druckman, Gabriel Hardman and Corinna Bechko.

Dark Horse will be hosting quite a list of panels and will be offering tons of free stuff. Definitely worth your while to check out their booth at the show.

Full press release and schedule below.
