Excellent news! I suggested Bryan as a guest a couple of years ago, so I'm very pleased to see this. I've seen him give talks twice - once a general talk on graphic novel writing/drawing based on The Tale of One Bad Rat and, more recently, his talk about his latest creation, Grandville. Both were excellent and really interesting. I guess Grandville 2 will be well on its way to completion by Fantasycon too?

Really pleased I booked my "early bird" registration now.

Yay! Bryan as a guest, he's always good value for money. Haven't seen his Grandville talk yet (though enjoyed the steampunk graphic novel), but loved his One Bad Rat and Luther Arkwright ones.
