Baltimore Comic-Con 2025 takes place on October 17-19 at the Inner Harbor’s Baltimore Convention Center. The convention has announced the addition of Cliff Chiang, Mark Chiarello, Dave Johnson, Tom King, Rachta Lin, and Jose Marzan Jr. to the 2025 event. Avoid waiting in additional lines — get your tickets online!
Cliff Chiang’s artwork has been hailed for its “fluid and confident storytelling” and “sweeping linework and nuanced style.” Graduating from Harvard University with a joint degree in English Literature and Visual Arts, he worked in editorial at Disney Adventures Magazine and Vertigo/DC Comics before making the leap into freelance illustration. Best known as the artist of the New York Times best-selling Wonder Woman (with writer Brian Azzarello) and Eisner Award-winning Paper Girls (with writer Brian K. Vaughan), his most recent work is the acclaimed Catwoman: Lonely City which he both wrote and drew.
Mark Chiarello is an American painter and illustrator based in Burbank, CA, known for his work with companies such as Lucasfilm, Disney, Mondo, Criterion, Carhartt, Topps, DC, and Marvel Comics. After attending the Pratt Institute in the 1980s, he began his career in the comic book industry. Chiarello painted the Batman/Houdini: The Devil’s Workshop graphic novel, winning the 1993 National Cartoonists Society Award for Best Comic Book, and was the first colorist on Mike Mignola’s Hellboy series.
He served as SVP, Art and Design Director at DC Comics for 27 years, overseeing projects like Batman: Black and White, Solo, and Wednesday Comics, and was the editor of New Frontier. Chiarello also played a key role in the Batman: Hush collaboration between Jim Lee and Jeph Loeb. He co-authored The DC Comics Guide to Coloring and Lettering Comics with Todd Klein.
In 2007, Chiarello painted portraits for Heroes of the Negro Leagues, which was featured in Juxtapoz Magazine. His other notable works include the 2009 Carhartt fashion campaign, a 2015 Mad Monster Party poster for Mondo, and artwork for Paul Simon’s Stranger to Stranger album. In 2020, he self-published Baseball 100 with Nel Yomtov and illustrated his first children’s book, Alien to Zombie (2021).
An officially ordained Methodist Deacon, “Reverend” Dave Johnson may be best known for his minimalist covers on the noir Vertigo series, 100 Bullets. He has done all 100 covers.
He has also done a number of covers for DC Comics, primarily Batman and Detective Comics. Dave also worked with Erik Larsen on the mini-series Superpatriot: Liberty & Justice.
He is also known for his work with Marvel on Deadpool. Dave is the principal founder of “Drink and Draw”, a get-together of professional artists that spawned an art book by the same name.
Mr. Johnson earned the 2002 Eisner Award for Best Cover Artist. He was also nominated for an Eisner in 2004 for his work on the critically-acclaimed DC Elseworlds miniseries Superman: Red Son, which is now a perennial bestseller in graphic novel form.
Ringo and Eisner Award-winning Tom King was the long-term writer of Batman at DC Comics, where he has also written Mister Miracle, Grayson, The Omega Men, DC Nation, Swamp Thing Winter Special, and has a story in Action Comics #1000, not to mention his award-winning work at Marvel on The Vision. King’s first book, A Once Crowded Sky, a postmodern super hero novel, was recognized by USA Today as one of the best Graphic Novels of the year. He was named by the Hollywood Reporter as one of the five comic creators to watch in 2015.
Rachta Lin grew up around Japanese anime and manga and has always enjoyed drawing her favorite characters. In 2015, after years of working as a Creative Director for a multi-national corporation, she quit her job to pursue her dreams of becoming a full-time illustrator. A trailblazer, she was one of the first South-East Asian artists to go international to work with brands such as Overwatch, DC Comics, and Magic: the Gathering.
After years of honing her abilities with renowned Japanese publishers, Rachta is finally living her dream of publishing her very own manga series.

Trinity: Daughter of Wonder Woman #4
(W) Tom King (A) Belén Ortega
SAVE THE DATE! You are cordially invited to the wedding of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle, again?! It’s the big day for our lovebirds, but what’s a DC wedding without a little crisis? Lizzie travels to the Wayne Manor of the past to retrieve a corgi pup, and you guessed it… chaos ensues!
Multiple Eisner Award-winning writer Tom King and critically acclaimed artist Elsa Charretier deliver a haunting, genre-defying tale in the graphic novel series Love Everlasting. The third volume paperback in the series will collect Love Everlasting issues #11-15 and drop readers into a plot-twist tryst this month from Image Comics.
Joan Petersen is a woman caught in a surreal loop of doomed romance. One moment she’s the starry-eyed secretary in a 1950s office affair; the next, she’s tangled in a dust-choked Western love triangle, or swept into the arms of a soldier during wartime. From high school hallways to bloodstained battlefields, each of Joan’s lives brings readers a new setting, a new lover—and the same inevitable, gut-wrenching end.
But Joan is starting to remember. And she’s starting to resist.
As her impossible journey unfolds and a mysterious cowboy enters the picture, Love Everlasting transforms into a gripping meditation on free will, fate, and the cultural myths that shape our ideas of love and identity. Blending classic romance comics with an unsettling sci-fi twist, Love Everlasting is the perfect read for fans of stories like WandaVision, Russian Doll, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Love Everlasting, Vol. 3 trade paperback (ISBN: 9781534330702) is available at local comic book shops now and will be available at independent bookstores, Bookshop, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, September 16.
A new DC villain debuts on September 17 in Wonder Woman #25, the latest chapter in comic book writer Tom King and artist Daniel Sampere‘s generational epic!

In a competitive auction, Universal Pictures is developing a live-action film based on the iconic characters of Archie Comics, one of the comics industry’s longest-running publishers. Tom King will write the screenplay. Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Aditya Sood will produce the project through Lord Miller’s first look deal with Universal, along with Emma Watts, who brought the project to Lord Miller with King, and Archie Comics CEO and Publisher Jon Goldwater.
The news follows a string of highly successful live-action adaptations of Archie characters to screens, including the breakout seven-season CW television series Riverdale, the Netflix streaming series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and the smash-hit film The Archies, also for Netflix and directed by Zoya Akhtar. Archie’s storylines center around a core cast of teens in the small town of Riverdale, anchored by heartfelt interpersonal dynamics, humor, and lighthearted drama. King, known for his fan-favorite emotionally resonant revivals of classic superhero characters like The Omega Men, Adam Strange, and The Vision, explored the Archie dynamic with his signature philosophic insight in the bestselling one-shot comic book Archie: The Decision last year, drawn by longtime Archie mainstay Dan Parent.
Archie has sold over three billion comics throughout its history, published in dozens of languages and read worldwide, most notably in Philippines, Canada, Mexico, Latin America, South America, Australia, UAE, and India; 100 million Archie comics have sold in India alone in the last 50 years. New Archie titles are continuously published monthly and are widely available in comic book stores, newsstand outlets, bookstores, libraries, and on the digital reading platforms comiXology and GlobalComix.
Senior Vice President of Production Development and Special Projects Britt Hennemuth and Director of Production Development Christine Sun will oversee the project for the studio. Lord Miller is represented by UTA and JSSK. Watts is represented by CAA. Archie Comics is represented by CAA. King is represented by UTA.
