March 1-3: Emerald City Comicon
The fifth annual installment of the Emerald City Comicon’s Monsters & Dames collection, which features a cover by award-winning artist and animator Bruce Timm, promises an amazing variety of original illustrations by the guests and artists of the 2013 Emerald City Comicon.
Since 2009, Monsters & Dames art books and auctions have raised well over $35,000.00 for Seattle Children’s Hospital, a premier child health care & pediatric center, recognized as one of the leading hospitals for children in the nation. The art book has sold out each year at the convention.
“This year we received over 140 submissions for the 2013 edition of Monsters & Dames, and the quality has never been higher,” said ECCC Convention Director Jim Demonakos. “I couldn’t be happier with the results, the book reflects our show’s excellent roster of artists, animators and illustrators.”
The full-color, 9″x12″, 80-page Monsters & Dames hardcover is limited to 1,150 individually numbered copies. The 2013 edition features contributions from some of the top names in comics, animation and illustration, including Mark Brooks, Skottie Young, Terry Moore, Joe Linsner, Mike Mignola, Fat Rabbit Farm, Ben Templesmith, Dave Johnson, Michael Golden, Eric Canete, Brett Weldele, Doug Sneyd, Camilla D’Errico, Mark Dos Santos, Drew Johnson, Lar DeSouza, Benjamin Dewey, David Petersen, Robbi Rodriguez, Mitch Gerads, Doc Shaner, Cat Staggs, Marcio Takara, Lars Brown, Paul Guinan, Andy Runton and dozens more.
