I'm moderating a King Con panel Sunday at 6:30

On Sunday at 6:30 pm I'm moderating a panel at King Con, Brooklyn's comics convention. Click here to view all the panels and get more information. You might recall that Paigey Pumphrey painted my boobs - I mean, my boob casting that now hangs at Williamsburg's Shag

6:30pm: HIPS, LIPS, & PENCIL TIPS: The Sexual Female as Feminist Focal Point a conversation with female artists Paige Pumphrey, Laura Lee Gullidge, Jennifer Hayden, Valerie D'Orazio; moderated by writer Rachel Kramer Bussel.



Here's what Time Out New York said:

KingCon
WTF? Brooklyn gets its own version of Comic Con with the second edition of this fest, featuring more than 50 Kings County comic-book writers and illustrators (along with special guests).
Who goes? Pop-culture fiends, comic nerds
Why should I care? Some of the big names involved in this year’s event include X-Men scribe Chris Claremont, writer Jonathan Ames (who’ll be chatting about his Brooklyn-set HBO show Bored to Death, as well as auctioning off props from the series), and erotica writer Rachel Kramer Bussel, who will moderate a panel on the role of women in the comics industry.
