KAREEM
ABDUL-JABBAR MAKES SPECIAL APPEARANCE AT SDCC WITH
PANEL
AND SIGNING TO LAUNCH NEW COMIC!
July 5, 2016 - Titan Comics are excited to
announce that NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
will be unveiling his unique take on Mycroft Holmes at the summer global event
San Diego Comic-Con this July!
An all-new comic book adventure, The Apocalypse Handbook - written by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Robert
Obtsfeld (Joker and the Thief) - sees the diffident, brilliant Mycroft pulled
into a globe-spanning adventure at the behest of Queen Victoria and a secret
organization at the heart of the British government. A madman is on the loose
with futuristic weaponry capable of destroying civilization in the most
horrific manner. Can the smartest man in England set aside his idle, womanizing
ways long enough to track down the foe that may be his match?
This hotly anticipated comic book - which
hits regular stores on August 3 - will exclusively debut at this year’s San
Diego Comic-Con (July 21-24) with a special never-before-released variant cover
by series artists Joshua Cassara (New Avengers, The Troop) and Luis Guerrero (The Twelfth Doctor) – only available to purchase at the show at Titan
booth #5537.
As part of this special SDCC appearance, Kareem
Abdul-Jabbar as well as series artists, Joshua Cassara, Luis Guerrero, and Mycroft Holmes and the Apocalypse Handbook
editor, Andrew James, will be speaking at an unmissable panel on Thursday July
21 at 12:00PM (room 5AB), taking SDCC attendees exclusively behind-the scenes
of the new comic series and revealing special artwork previews.
SDCC attendees will also have the unique opportunity
to meet Kareem and the creative team behind the comic book straight after the
panel for a special Mycroft Holmes comic
book signing at 13:30PM in Autograph Alley AA02.
