Personally, I find that the more I know about ALL aspects of comics, the better able I can understand what's going on in the industry, so I can judge not only the quality of a given comics' narrative but why it might be packaged the way it is, or marketed the way it is, or how it might tie in with other business decisions, or whatever. The greater the breadth of your comics knowledge -- beyond what's on the actual page -- the more you're able to appreciate why different decisions are made. I would urge everyone in comics to attend if they're able. (Sadly, I have prior engagements. Namely, the day job.)
The panels begin at 8:00 am PDT tomorrow, and run through 2:30 pm PDT on Friday. Advance registration is required.
