“Baltimore Comic-Con has been one of the premier conventions celebrating the magic and history of sequential storytelling at its core for over a quarter century, so where better to meet comic book readers where they are than Charm City?” said Ignition Press Publisher Filip Sablik. “Ignition Press is thrilled and honored to share our first four debut titles with comic fans for the first time and sponsor the Ringo Awards at Baltimore Comic-Con.”
The publisher will hold their Doing Comics Differently with Ignition Press panel on Friday, October 17th at 4:00pm EST in Room 338, hosted by Ignition Press Publisher Filip Sablik.
