Magnetic Press is heading to Chicago to kick-ass and take names at this weekend’s C2E2.

The publisher will be showing and selling their full library of awesome books at booth #742! They will have copies of all of their best sellers, including their newest releases: Tom DeLonge’s Poet Anderson #1, Matteo De Longis’s Vox, Love: The Tiger, Evertold’s Daomu, and Ryan Schifrin’s The Adventures of Basil and Moebius Vol. 1! But that’s not all — they’re also hosting their FIRST EVER PUBLIC PANEL at 11:15am, Friday 24th, in room S204!  They’re excited to open the show with a peek at their latest and upcoming titles, with Wasted Lands artist/creator Dave Dorman and author Austin Wilson to discuss his upcoming graphic novel Re-Pro-Duct. Plus, they will also feature free screenings of both the award-winning Poet Anderson animated short film and the live action Basil and Moebius short, “No Rest for the Wicked“, starring Zachary Levi, Ray Park, and Malcolm McDowell!!!

This awesome short film has made the festival circuits, racking up awards left and right, and they are not only showing it during their panel, but hosting it for it’s World Premiere Online!  That’s right, if you’re unable to make it to the show, on Friday April 24th you can watch it online! It’s an action-packed 16 minutes filled with thieving scoundrels, zombie hitmen, and a kung-fu monkey (played by Crystal the Monkey, you know, from “The Hangover”…?)  It is a blast guaranteed to please!
