DSTLRY SDCC 2024 Panel Schedule
Thursday, July 25
From Comixology to DSTLRY and Beyond: The Chip Mosher and David Steinberger One-on-One
2-3 p.m., Room 29AB
He has sold more comics than anyone else in the history of the industry. Now, he has co-founded DSTLRY, a comics & collectibles company, with his longtime partner-in-crime and co-founder, Chip Mosher. Join a no-holds-barred conversation with David Steinberger, former CEO of comiXology and Head of Comics Worldwide at Amazon, who is now the CEO of DSTLRY. Hosted by Chip—the person who knows David best—this panel promises to reveal the secret successes and failures of the past 15 years in digital comics and explain why DSTLRY is poised to take comics to the next level.
Friday, July 26
Building New Worlds with DSTLRY
11 a.m.-12 p.m., Room 23ABC
The pioneers of creator-owned comics work whole-cloth to not only construct characters and plot, but sprawling worlds and ecosystems with a scope that defies expectation. The creators on this panel represent this era’s biggest mythmakers, traversing media to establish new frontiers that equally intrigue and offer cutting mirrors to reflect on our own reality. Join Jock (Gone), Ariela Kristantina (The Devil’s Cut, Shepherd), Becky Cloonan (Somna), Joe Henderson (The Big Burn, co-showrunner on Lucifer), and Ram V (Through Red Windows) as they deconstruct the art of summoning new universes from their imaginations.
DSTLRY: What’s Next
2:30-3:30 p.m., Room 24ABC
DSTLRY launched last year and in a few short months gained such accolades as Publisher of the Year from The Beat with steamy horror breakout Somna lauded as a Best Comic of 2023 (with a single issue out) by Newsarama.com. Witness the next phase of the most daring, progressive storytelling in comics as DSTLRY offers a crystal ball session, previewing its upcoming works and (just maybe) announcing new project(s) set to dominate the headlines of 2025. Join DSTLRY Founding Creators Mirka Andolfo (Blasfamous), Ram V (Through Red Windows), David Brothers (Time Waits), and Joëlle Jones (Through Red Windows) for an exclusive, must-see panel that will redefine the future of creator-owned comics as each creator dives into their projects.
Saturday, July 27
The Future of Horror Comics
1:30-2:30 p.m., Room 24ABC
The future of horror has been sculpted by a cabal of voices hellbent on keeping readers up at night. Discover the storytelling secrets from the maestros of the macabre. Writer/actor David Dastmalchian (Count Crowley, Late Night with the Devil), writers/podcasters Marcus Parks & Henry Zebrowski (The Last Podcast on the Left, Operation Sunshine), James Tynion IV (Spectregraph, Blue Book), Scott Snyder (White Boat, Canary), Becky Cloonan (Somna), and Tula Lotay (Somna, Barnstormers) join unholy forces to dissect the future of sequential art terror. Presented by DSTLRY and Dark Horse Comics, and hosted by DSTLRY’s Sean Edgar and Tiny Onion’s Courtney Menard.
The Somna Q&A and Live Draw with Becky Cloonan, Tula Lotay, Lee Loughridge, and Will Dennis
3:30-4:30 p.m., Room 5AB
Last fall, master storytellers Becky Cloonan and Tula Lotay co-wrote and co-illustrated a rich, devastating masterwork that combined folk horror dread with forbidden passion, leading to the comic event of the year: Somna. Published by DSTLRY, the book unfolds as a 17th-century woman, Ingrid, succumbs to the carnal thirst of a demon who haunts her dreams. Join Cloonan, Lotay, colorist Lee Loughridge, and editor Will Dennis as the team discusses their modern horror classic and Cloonan and Lotay perform a live draw of Somna’s pentagram-crossed characters—combining their art styles in real-time.
Sunday, July 28
The DSTLRY Live Draw with Joëlle Jones, Jock, and Mirka Andolfo
12-1 p.m., Room 11
The greatest comic artists of the 21st Century collide in this once-in-a-life time event, as Jock (Gone), Mirka Andolfo (Blasfamous), and Joëlle Jones (The Devil’s Cut) draw in real-time while answering questions about their process and world-building. The trio will also answer questions about their current and upcoming books for DSTLRY. (They may even draw characters from their upcoming projects and offer some exclusive giveaways…) Moderated by DSTLRY Founding Editor Will Dennis.
