If you can’t make it out to the University of Puget Sound, you’ll have another chance to see Greg this weekend as he heads to the Vancouver Fan Expo.

The Expo takes place this Saturday and Sunday at the Vancouver Convention Centre, in, of course, Vancouver Canada. You can find Greg at table P14, and he’ll be taking part in the Rock Star Comic Creator Super Panel (with Len Wein, Kathryn and Stuart Immonen, and Yannick Paquete) on Saturday at 6PM.

This weekend, Greg is headed to Seattle’s Emerald City Comicon. Along with Jen Van Meter, Neal Bailey, and possibly Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir, he’ll be at Tables G-07 and G-08 in Artist’s Alley.

On Saturday, Greg will be on the Crime Comics panel, also featuring Ed Brubaker and moderated by Dr. Ben Saunders of the University of Oregon, from noon to 1pm, room 3AB. And on Sunday, he’ll take part in Marvel: The Next Big Thing, Room 4C3-4, from 2 to 3.

Greg will have books for sale, and Lady Sabre t-shirts. There is no charge for signing books, nor any obligation to buy books to get a signature. He will be able to process credit cards as well as take cash.

We’ve recently updated our appearances page with a number of other convention appearances and book signings. Expect to hear more about those in the near future!

Greg’s next novel Alpha from Mulholland Books will debut this May 22 in the U.S. and U.K.

For the visitors to Wilsonville, the largest theme park in the world, the day begins with a smile. But, by the end, they start to wonder: will they escape with their lives? Undercover Delta Force operator, Master Sergeant Jonathan “Jad” Bell has been deployed to act as Wilsonville’s lead undercover security officer. The threat begins with the announcement of a hidden dirty bomb, but quickly becomes something far, far worse.

Trained since the age of 18 to save innocent victims from impossible hostage situations, Jad scrambles to assess the threat and protect the visitors. He will come face to face with a villain whose training matches his in every way—and presents a danger Jad may not be able to stop.
