When the first issue of the Tomb Raider comic sequel is released, can you tell me how I would be able to read it? Would it be sold at a local comic book store? (I'm sorry, I'm new at this.)

It will be sold at the local comics shops, yes, and it will also be on the Dark Horse app, digitally. Hopefully it will be available elsewhere as well, and no worries at all, welcome aboard!

Well done on the Tomb Raider gig, but I must ask; can playing the new game awhile back now be considered as research? That is to say, did you have any inkling you'd be writing Lara's new adventures at the time?

No.

They asked before I started playing the game. I turned it down.



Then I started playing the game and got hooked.



So I called them back.  :)

Hi again Gail! First, I just want to apologize for not saying this sooner, but I love your work! I love, love, love, LOVE your writing! Within the last two years you have become my favorite author, and this year I made it my resolution to track down everyt

No stores stock my work? Huh?


Not sure what you mean, my stuff is in stores all over the world.. But I am happy you are liking it!



I am enjoying the X-books by Marjorie M. Liu and Brian Wood, I enjoy Justice League, I’m enjoying Kelly Sue’s Avengers.

So I missed your Prism (great freaking booth) comics signing yesterday :( Will there be any other opportunities to get my copy of Red Sonja #1 signed by you at SDCC?

I am doing a signing at the DC booth this morning (Sunday). I think that’s my last signing, happy to sign it there!

SWEET! I am so looking forward to meeting you! As a queer woman working in comics, I cannot BEGIN to tell you how much I appreciate how much you do for the nerdy queer community.



This kind note just hit me really hard for a moment for some reason.


Thank you, you made my day. And please keep going, breaking in can be difficult but your voice is needed!

My Schedule Today (Saturday)!

No panels today, but I have three signings!


Thursday, they had to cut the line and limit the number of books I could sign at the DC booth to keep the crowd manageable. The DC signings are always the busiest, so if you want a LOT of books signed, these first two signings may be your best option.



10:00-11:00  DARK HORSE:  This is a surprise signing, unannounced, so there may be no line at all! This is at booth 2615. Come say hi!



12:00-1:00  PRISM COMICS  Booth 2144.  Prism Comics is the premiere publisher and supporter of lgbtq-friendly comics and creators. They are putting out some of the BEST comics anywhere…please support them! 


Also, Dynamite Entertainment has generously donated some RED SONJA #1 issues for me to sign at this signing, and 100% of the purchase price goes to PRISM COMICS for their grant program to benefit LGBTQ creators!  So come get a signed, personalized RED SONJA at cover price and benefit a great cause!


Also, the ONLY portfolio reviews I will be doing this con will be at this signing. It’s free, but again, maybe get a Red Sonja or look around at the Prism Comics titles…these wonderful people deserve our support!



3:30-4:30  DC ENTERTAINMENT  Booth 1915  My last signing of the day!  These are always crowded but fun, please stop and say hello!

I don't suppose that there would be a time at the convention when I could ask you to look at my portfolio, would there? This con is so weird when it comes to making connections with people in the industry.

YES!  The ONLY time I am doing portfolio reviews the entire con is at the PRISM BOOTH, #2144 at NOON.


There is no charge, but I would ask you to take a look at the fine selection of wonderful comics they have and support them.


I will also be selling copies of RED SONJA #1 there, which I will happily sign and personalize, to benefit PRISM COMICS.



But the review is free, no purchase necessary. But the ONLY time I’m doing them is from noon to one today (Saturday!).


See you there, I hope!

I wanted to get out my V for Vendetta mask and The Movement iPod wallpaper, so here’s me fooling around. I got my mask slightly crooked because I couldn’t tell until I looked more closely at the photos. Whoops.





Damn! I was not prepared for this amount of awesome!
