ICv2 has announced the ICv2 Comics & Digital Conference at New York Comic Con, a half-day event where industry executives and thought leaders will discuss the impact of the rapidly growing digital channel on the comics and graphic novel medium.
“This year, it seemed critical to offer an event to look at the fastest-growing part of the comics and graphic novel business—digital—to examine where it is, where it’s going, and what it’s going to do to print,” ICv2 President Milton Griepp said. “Everyone in the industry, from creators to publishers to retailers and librarians, has an interest in this topic.”
The Conference, to be held at the Javits Center on Thursday, October 7th, on the eve of New York Comic Con, will kick off with a preview of the 2010 ICv2 White Paper, looking at the comics and graphic novel business so far this year, including digital sales. Read more…

GAME OVER arrives on the iPad/iPhone full of bonus material, and will also be available on through the AveComics App.

A real stylistic challenge : all the jokes end with hero’s death and a big “GAME OVER”! It’s a modern version of Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote. Read more…
