Yup, still not at San Diego Comic Con this year, so here’s all the breaking news and events from this annual gathering of comic book creators especially those from Canada.

And before I get to the schedule of events for Sunday, here’s some of the late breaking news that’s coming from the show.

 

At the Eisner Awards, Jillian Tamaki won in the category of Best Graphic Album – Reprint for Boundless from Drawn & Quarterly. Congrats to all the nominees and winners.

 

Valiant Entertainment made a presentation during the Diamond Retailer Appreciation Lunch. During that event, Valiant announced the following titles featuring Canadian creators:

– Faith: Dreamside #1 with cover art by Marguerite Sauvage, on sale September 26

– Bloodshot Rising Spirit #1 written by Lonnie Nadler and Zac Thompson, with art by Ken Lashley, on sale November 14
