Facebook Comic Con

The brainchild of Michael Netzer, Facebook Comic Con is a "virtual comics, animation and media convention bringing together the robust community of industry professionals and fans registered on Facebook."

Everyone is preparing for the "gala premiere weekend celebration" and official launch of Facebook Comic Con the weekend of March 12-15. However, a whole slew of creators including yours truly have already set up "tables." You can visit and sign up for my group here:

Gail Simone was happy to hear that we used her creation, the Queen of Fables, in this issue - and I hope fans are too! I was very happy to write Captain Marvel, a childhood favorite, and to get to team him up with Batman in an all-ages story was pretty awesome on top of it all.
