Wonder Con 2010: Peter S. Beagle

Just got the Comic Con magazine that promotes Wonder Con and saw that Peter S. Beagle will be at the show. His books, The Last Unicorn
, and A Fine and Private Place are mainstays with fantasy readers, but it is I See By My Outfit
which details his journey across the US on a Heinkel in 1963 that interested me most.

I met Mr. Beagle a few years ago at one of the last Mile High Mayhems, where he was signing his book. I then ran into him at Comic Con last year. If you like scooter road trip stories, pick it up. And if you are in San Fransisco over Easter weekend, look him up a Wonder Con.

Comic Con next week: you going?



I'm heading to Comic Con for my other gig, but will be hooking up with some scooter folks while I'm there. Anyone else going who wants to say hello?

I'm bringing my copy of the Scoot! Magazine scooter art issue (#40) for R. Black to sign. I forgot it when I went to his book signing...doh! also looking forward to meeting Patrick from Rocketworld who submitted art for the same issue and made those cute IWG animals on scooters figures, one of which has premium placement in my cabinet. There will be lots of other folks there to see, so I am excited.

Ed Brubaker, who has done LOTS of fancy-schmancy cool comic-related work will be there, but his Deadenders comics were closest to my heart. I interviewed him about them in Scoot! #19, I believe. Maybe I'll bring #1 with me.;)
