Also, the creators will reveal never-before-seen art along with an intimate Q&A. All Aspen Comics Panel attendees will receive a free gift.

The excitement doesn’t stop there. For the first time ever, Aspen will be offering highly-limited, hand-numbered “Aspen Century Edition” exclusive books on a per-daily basis throughout each of the five days of SDCC.
