(W) Jimmy Palmiotti, Matt Brady (A) Dominike "Domo" Stanton (CA) Dan McDaid
WHY WE LOVE IT: Comics veteran Jimmy Palmiotti (Harley Quinn) is a master at
crafting humorous, snarky comics, and for The Con Job he's teamed up with longtime
comics journalistturnedwriter
Matt Brady (Buck Rogers) and artist Dominike "Domo"
Stanton (Deadpool) for a unique heist story. They've put the "con" back in comic
conventions.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: In the mood for a characterdriven,
comic book convention
crime caper? Palmiotti and Brady have crafted a Galaxy Quest meets Ocean's 11style
crime story set in the largerthanlife
backdrop of the modern convention circuit. You
thought cons couldn't get any bigger? You have no idea.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: After working the same convention circuit for many years, a group
of flabby action heroes, aging sex symbols, and scifi
bit players have become close friends
as they watch their lines get shorter and their autographs get cheaper. That is, until they hire
a cocky new booking agent who offers them their only chance at a comfortable retirement
by robbing one of the largest cons in the country!
