    Mark and Sergio—The world’s fastest cartoonist joins forces with the 
    Comic-Con 2008 weekend record holder for panel moderation! Yes, it’s Mark 
    Evanier and Sergio Aragonés together again. Expect lots of talk 
    on Groo and anything else these two whirlwinds are conspiring to bring us 
    in the near future. Room 8

    Spotlight on Todd Klein—Eisner Award-winning letterer and logo designer 
    Todd Klein (Sandman, Fables) is joined by moderator Mark 
    Evanier (Fanboy, Kirby: King of Comics) for a discussion 
    of his 30-plus years in comics, from early days on staff at DC and lettering 
    by hand to his present-day freelance career on many titles for DC, Marvel, 
    and others, mainly on the computer. Focus will be on the intricacies of lettering, 
    logo design, and more, as Todd and Mark show and discuss images of classic 
    comics logos. Todd will also cover his recent self-published signed prints 
    by Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman and give away several copies of each. Room
