Guests of Honor
We have a rather fantastic list of guests this year. As we have limited space, all previous guests have priority.
They dance with fire, they crack a fiery whip and they are working on a steampunk show. Some are graduates of Guilford, others are just friends. They are all around awesome.
European Medieval Arts of Arms
The EMAA Knights are coming back to do live-steel demos of Medieval-style swordfighting.! It was lots of fun to watch them last year, but keep in mind: They have swords. Be nice.
Alan Welch: Reverie Realm
Alan Welch has created some fantastic fantasy files through digital manipulations. They are based off photographs, and have a great sense of detail and 3D imagery.
Christopher B. Wright: Ubersoft
Christopher Wright is the awesome webcomic author/artist of the popular thing known as "Ubersoft." A friend of Kass', and a nice dosage of computer geek for those of us feeling left out.
Dan Johnson: Herc and Thor
He writes a real live comic! How about that? He is also a gag writed for the Dennis the Menace comic and has contributed to Alter Ego, Comic Book Marketplace, Filmfax and Scary Monsters Magazine.
Garth Graham: Finders Keepers
Garth is also the creator of the finished webcomic, Comedity. Finders Keepers is a story-driven comic about the dark fantasy story of Cailyn Asher and her companion Cardinal.
Jamie Robertson: Clan of the Cats
Jamie Robertson is the awesome webcomic author/artist of the popular thing known as "Clan of the Cats." Some urban fantasy with a mix of seriousness and humor.
Jennie Breeden: Devil's Panties
Jennie Breeden is the awesome webcomic author/artist of the popular thing known as "The Devil's Panties." We're very afraid of her and hope she doesn't eat us.
Joe Komenda: Feral-Chicken
I want one of the feral duckies myself. Or the mouse. You know, something like that. Joe's a good people.
Kel McDonald: Sorcery 101
Apparently, Kel has discovered the power to channel people into comic form, at least one Guilfordite has a doppelgangers in Sorcery 101. Be afraid. She draws a modern fantasy tale. Most of us want tales[sic] that wag like the werewolves.
Larry Holderfeld: Sinister Bedfellows and BearCats of Mandhu
Sinister Bedfellows is a finished comic with some surreality, interesting pictures and random observations about life. BearCats will be a furry look at the Himilayias
Matt Wood (and hopefully Dave Milloway and Stephanie Freese): The DaDa Detective, Likely Stories
Matt Wood and Dave Milloway and Stephanie Freese are awesome people involved with "The DaDa Detective," "Likely Stories," and other things. One of them games with a former con organizer, I think that's how they got in.
Mike Moon: Catgirl Island
Lots of art and stories by Mike Moon about a fictional island, populated by Catgirls, off the coast of NC.
Niki Lemonade: My Fake Heart
Has a webcomic, as well as adorably cute valentines and kitty hats. (I can't wait to get a kitty hat this year if she has them)
Rachel Nabors: Subculture of One
She does comics for gURL.com, runs mangapunk.com, and self-publishes some comics too. Rachel does a lot of stuff, so it should be awesome having her at the con.
A Dark Fantasy RPG that looks like a lot of fun. And Doom, can't forget that. They even have a bunch of spiffy generators to come up with fun names and things for the game.
For those vampire fans out there, and I know there are, here is the author of ACTUAL FACTUAL: DRACULA, A Compendium of Vampires
