SiliCon 2007: Guest Announcement: Josh Fialkov!
Harvey Award Nominee for Best New Talent and Best Writer Joshua Hale Fialkov has agreed to come and be our guest for SiliCon 2007! He is the creator of the hit indie anthology Western Tales of Terror, as well as the Critically Acclaimed Graphic Novel Elk's Run from Villard Books, and the underground sensation Punks: The Comic. His comic work has appeared in books for Boom Studios and IDW Publishing, with upcoming work from Harris Comics, Marvel Comics, and more. His latest work, Vampirella Quarterly was just released (go order it on Previews!) He was raised in Pittsburgh, and currently enjoys a writer’s life in Los Angeles. Josh is a great guy and was quick to agree to come and be our guest at SiliCon 2007. Being diabetic himself, he appreciates the charity we support, the Diabetes Society. It will be interesting to hear Josh's perspective on dealing with diabetes in the fast paced world of entertainment.
Phantom Power Comics and "I Read Comics" just posted their latest podcasts (including some announcements for SiliCon!), go check them out!

Thank you one and all for all of your support, kindness, and well-wishes throughout 2006.
The best, as they say, is yet to come.
Best wishes --
Josh, Noel, Chris A. J-Rod, and the rest of the Elk's Runners...
Hey Gang,
In case y'all've been living under a rock, the Seven Time Harvey Award Nominated, Critically Acclaimed, Underground Sensation, Elk's Run is being released by Villard Books, a division of Random House Publishing. Finally the complete series will be collected under one cover.
It feels incredibly good to say that.
The book has a flashy new introduction by beloved novelist (and Moon Knight writer) Charlie Huston, a brand new cover by Noel and Scott, and the complete story of Elk's Run, remastered (thanks in no small part to Jaco) and ready to be enjoyed. It's been a harrowing experience to say the least, and each and every one of you have played a part in seeing it come to fruition.
Of course, being the needy bastard I am, I have yet another request for you.
The book has hit Diamond Previews, meaning it's available for order at your local comic book shop. The book will also be available at your local (and internet) book store, but, it's nice to support the folks who supported the book the first time out.
If you'd like to find your local comic book shop, I'd recommend going here: http://comicshoplocator.com/
Once you're there, simply ask the kind and friendly retailer to order you a copy of Elk's Run from Villard. The order number for the book is DEC06 3960.Again, thank you all for your support, and I can not wait for y'all to see what we have an in store for you this coming March.
Ah, Lincoln. Baltimore Comic-Con and D.C. fun.
