Hola lil’ Onions!
Happy San Diego Comic Con Eve!
We don’t have a booth at SDCC this year, but we’ll have a lot going on all weekend! To celebrate the release of Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy #1, we’ve got a Rascal Randy Meet-and-Greet, an SDCC exclusive EXC: Rascal Randy #1 cover from Christian Ward, and new Randy merch dropping at our Corpse Tour stop on Saturday! Plus a deep dive into the Exquisite Corpses: The Game with James and Michael!
In the lead-up to SIKTC #50, we have a lot of great programming with BOOM! for SIKTC fans. The SIKTC panel this year will be particularly good, featuring co-creators James and Werther Dell’Edera, spinoff series writer Tate Brombal (Fall of the House of Slaughter), novelist Kiersten White (SIKTC: Hope Is a Knife), BOOM! Senior Editor Ramiro Portnoy, Tiny Onion Director of Narrative & Editor-in-Chief Eric Harburn, and moderated by our very own Sami DeMonster! There will be secrets shared and announcements made, so get there early to get a good spot!
James is a guest of BOOM!’s this year, so you will be able to find him signing with Werther in their booth everyday – singing times below! While you’re at the booth, you can catch a glimpse at Tiny Onion’s very first SIKTC plush collectible, Octo!!!
After years of requests, it’s finally time: we would like to make a BIG Octo plushie, large enough for you to hold and hug! This September, we will launch the campaign for our very first plush collectible, the huggable Octo. If you would like to see the scale we’re going for, we’ll have a sample Octo plushie on display at the BOOM! Booth all weekend. Want your very own Octo? You can sign up here to be notified of launch.
Brace yourselves, we’re bringing the tri-states’ Prince of Pain to San Diego Comic-Con. Rascal Randy will be running the streets of San Diego, popping up at some of James’s signings, and doing his very own Meet-and-Greet on Friday!
On Saturday, join us for another Corpse Tour stop at Now or Never Comics to celebrate the release of Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy #1! Featuring a Rascal Randy photo op, Q+ A with the Corpse Crew, followed by a signing with James Tynion IV, Michael Walsh, Tyler Boss, and Christian Ward.
Tickets sold out quickly, so we’re setting up two merch pop-ups: one inside for ticket holders, and another outside for those who couldn’t grab a ticket before they sold out. Both pop-ups will have our iconic Corpse Tour shirt by Michael Walsh, a new Rascal Randy shirt from Kerin Cunningham, and a SDCC exclusive EXC: Rascal Randy #1 cover by Christian Ward, available only at the Corpse Tour stop!
In the middle of it all, we’ll be at the Eisners Friday night with our creators and crew, celebrating 9 Eisner nominations! (Keep your fingers crossed for us!)
Below is a deeper look at EVERYTHING we’re doing at SDCC this weekend, in two formats. One that’s text readable, and a graphic you can download and keep on your phone. Variety is the spice of life!
