“Magic and Comics – The Deceptive Arts”

The world of illusion and sequential art have much more in common then you think, from exploiting common psychological short-cuts to histories stacked with con men and criminals. This panel hosted by the creators of IDW’s Smoke and Mirrors (Mike Costa, Jon Armstrong) features Costa (Cobra) award-winning magician Armstrong, Josh Fialkov (Echoes) and special guests. It also boasts interactive elements, amazing art, live demonstrations of close-up magic from award winning magicians from the World Famous Magic Castle and you might even learn some magic you can do for your friends.
