Comic Con International: 2012
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Conventions, Editorials, Reviews, DC Comics,
Comic Con International has come and gone already. Naturally, my Comic Con experience is quite a bit different from most people. I’ve been going for quite a while, have a lot of friends and acquaintances that I see there, and have an established routine of places to be at certain times.
I got there too late on Wednesday for what some reported was a raucous Preview Night, so my convention didn’t start until Thursday morning.
Tom Spurgeon at The Comics Reporter has a rundown of convention memories from around the internet. (And congratulations to Tom for his Eisner Award for Best Comics-Related Journalism. It’s well-deserved.

Comic Book Jobs: Rebellion (UK)
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, Independent,
“I Am The Law...of Human Resources!”
Rebellion, the British publisher of 2000 AD (home of Judge Dredd) and many other great British Comics) is in a hiring mood for the holidays.
Unfortunately, they aren’t looking for a new body to fill the Judge’s suit. They want a PR Coordinator.
You’ll be covering “PR and Marketing for all aspects of the publishing sides of the business.” This includes “the famous Sci-Fi comic 2000 AD and Sci-Fi/Fantasy book imprints Abaddon and Solaris, as well as some for the renowned computer games.”
Comics, books, games? This sounds like I’ve washed up on the shore of Fanboy Island!
You’ll be writing press releases, fielding incoming media inquiries, maintaining those all-important social media contacts, plus research and tracking.
Rebellion only wants you if you can (1) provide samples suitable to their needs and more importantly (2) “legally work in the UK.”
Good luck, job seekers!
