THE FUTURE OF TWOMORROWS PUBLISHING 

Join publisher John Morrow as he reveals TwoMorrows Publishing’s plans for the future, and looks back at the company’s more than three decades in business! In addition to getting the scoop on his 100th issue of The Jack Kirby Collector (the publication that started it all), featured panelists include: Roy Thomas (former Marvel Comics editor-in-chief, main writer for Marvel and DC Comics, and current editor of Alter Ego magazine, who’s debuting his new autobiography and Alter Ego #200 at HeroesCon), Keith Dallas (who’ll give the scoop on upcoming American Comic Book Chronicles volumes), Eric Nolen-Weathington (co-author of the company’s long-awaited Jim Aparo biography), and Ed Catto (editor of RetroFan magazine).

Saturday, 1:30 pm 
Room 207CD 
RETROFAN: THE NOSTALGIA THAT WOULDN’T DIE 

In an age of clickbait, oddball trivia and quick flashes of memory, many fans, especially pop culture and comic fans, are more rabid than ever to get to the real story behind the stories they love. Join RetroFan magazine editor Ed Catto , along with Aaron Sultan (regular RetroFan contributor) and TwoMorrows publisher John Morrow, for a deep dive into the crazy, cool pop culture we grew up with, from Slurpee cups and comics, to TV shows and movies!

See you there!

Due to the death of editor Joe Meno, BRICKJOURNAL #92 will be the final issue. After #92 ships in July, remaining subscription issues will be filled with BLOCKS magazine—which will contain a new BRICKJOURNAL section by some of the regular BRICKJOURNAL contributors readers have come to love. Best of all, BLOCKS is monthly, so BRICKJOURNAL subscribers get an even more frequent Lego® fix!

Plus: BRICKJOURNAL digital subscribers will get three months of unlimited access to the BLOCKS digital archive of over 100 back issues, including their latest issues. And print subscribers also get unlimited access to that digital archive of BLOCKS back issues until their print subscription expires.

If you’re not familiar with BLOCKS, it’s been published for over a decade in the UK by Silverback Publishing Ltd., and is rapidly expanding into the US. We hope BRICKJOURNAL customers will give it a try, as this switchover idea was approved by editor Joe Meno before his passing, and his family and BRICKJOURNAL contributors have endorsed it.

For those who don’t wish to receive BLOCKS issues, TwoMorrows Publishing has other options for the remainder of their BRICKJOURNAL subscriptions:

1) Exchange their remaining subscription issues 1-for-1 for BrickJournal back issues, extra copies of #92, or our Minifigure Customization or You Can Build It instruction books, while they last. Just let us know which ones you want by email (store@twomorrows.com) or phone (919-449-0344)

2) Transfer their remaining BRICKJOURNAL issues to another TwoMorrows magazine (RetroFan, Cryptology, Back Issue, Alter Ego, Comic Book Creator, or the Jack Kirby Collector)

3) Apply their balance as a credit toward any TwoMorrows book, or request a refund?
(If you’re already a BLOCKS subscriber, you’ll need to choose one of the other options above.)

Unless we hear from customers by April 15, their first issue of BLOCKS will automatically ship to them this Fall, and they’ll be notified by Silverback Publishing Ltd. with details on how to access the BLOCKS digital archive.

Thanks for supporting BrickJournal since 2008!
