Exclusives
Arcana Comics is Excited to announce a couple of special appearances at the
Arcana Comics Panel on Thursday evening!

San Diego Comic Con is a mecca for talent across the entertainment industry.
It's no different this year with the news that Alexa Vega, talented actress
from the Spy Kids franchise and many other roles, and Jesse McCartney, platinum
selling recording artist, actor, and voice talent will both make a special
appearance during the Arcana Comics Panel from 6:00 - 7:00 PM, Thursday, July
21st in room 23ABC.

Alexa Vega and Jesse McCartney are two of the stars in the upcoming 3-D
luximation animated film, THE CLOCKWORK GIRL, based on the Arcana Comics
graphic novel by Sean Patrick O'Reilly and Kevin Hanna.

In the timeless land of Haraway, a robot girl, Tesla (ALEXA VEGA), is given the
gift of life from her creator, Wilhelm the Tinkerer. Tesla meets Huxley (JESSE
MCCARTNEY), the monster boy, who happens to be the son of her creator's chief
rival. Together the two break into - and out of - ancient fortresses, fight
robots, and travel from the depths of the ocean to the skies above as they
attempt to solve the mystery of the plague that has stricken their town.

The 3-D luximation animated film also features the voice talents of Carrie-Anne
Moss (THE MATRIX), Jeffrey Tambor (ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT), Brad Garrett
(EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND), and Adrian Hough (MORTAL KOMBAT: LEGACY) amongst
others.

THE CLOCKWORK GIRL (ISBN:9780062080394) was recently re-released by Harper
Collins with a new forward by creators Sean Patrick O'Reilly and Kevin Hanna,
along with playful, full-page pin-ups of the characters.

Also appearing at the Arcana Comics panel are Arcana founder Sean Patrick
O'Reailly (KADE, THE CLOCKWORK GIRL), Erik Hendrix (SIDESHOWS), Brooke Burgess
(BECOMING), Mike Kalvoda (STRAW/BANSHEE), Matt Wilson (SCROOGE & SANTA), and
Ryan Colucci (HARBOR MOON). The panel will discuss some of the amazing talent
coming out of Arcana, one of the world's largest graphic novel producers. With
over 150 graphic novels released, find out what the publisher currently has
coming in the near future and get a sneak peak at the 3D animated feature film
Clockwork Girl, Arcana's slate of interactive apps, and more. See how
independent publishers make their mark in the comic book industry and blur the
lines between mediums, Arcana style. Attendees will get free comics and the
first in a series of Arcana Universe posters.

While you're on hand for the convention, be sure to stop by the Arcana Comics
booth, 2415, to see some of our amazing exclusives, debut books, posters,
shirts, and signings. We are also sharing the booth with Platinum Studios'
COWBOYS AND ALIENS, so don't miss it!

Our exclusives this year, which are featured on the SDCC Exclusives list on the
[1]OFFICIAL SDCC WEB SITE, are the KADE ART BOOK and the SIDESHOWS LAUNCH
EDITION.

The KADE ART BOOK features original work from some of the most talented artists
in the industry! Tim Bradstreet's unique style sets the tone with an original
cover, while Tim Seeley, Brent Schoonover, Greg Horn, Kevin Mellon, Ashley
Wood, Liam Sharp, Ben Templesmith, Greg Titus, and Whilce Portacio provide
contributions to this amazing art book.

The SIDESHOWS LAUNCH EDITION features extras not available in the retail
version of the book. It's 1950's Las Vegas & the mob enlisted former circus
attractions as their aces in the hole. These SideShows had a little secret --
they really did have the abilities they pretended to. High rollers, lounge
singers, cigarettes, alcohol, and superpowers. Welcome to Las Vegas. Don't miss
the book Mark Waid (DAREDEVIL, IRREDEEMABLE) describes as "Energetic, dynamic
art and a great story."

Each exclusive is extremely limited and is sure to sell out, so get one before
they're gone!

We are also debuting the first ARCANA UNIVERSE POSTER and several new titles,
which haven't hit the stands yet.
