First New Jersey Comic Expo Welcomes Artist John Cassaday this Weekend


The first-ever New Jersey Comic Expo (NJCE) makes its debut THIS WEEKEND, and big news continues to roll out with today's announcement that John Cassaday will attend the show on both Saturday and Sunday!



Best-selling and fan favorite comic book artist John Cassaday will be making a rare appearance at NJCE on Saturday and Sunday! John's appearance at NJCE is a rare appearance outside of Comic-Con International and New York Comic Con!

John Cassaday's star continues to shine brighter than ever as the artist on Marvel's blockbuster Star Wars series launching at a record breaking One Million copies of the 1st print alone placing it as the #1 comic of the year - and in addition with multiple printings having followed! John's career took off with his work on the critically acclaimed Planetary with writer Warren Ellis, Astonishing X-Men with Joss Whedon and Captain America with John Ney Rieber. John has done work for virtually every top comics publisher in his 20-year career, including covers for both Dynamite Entertainment's Shadow, Lone Ranger and other great series as well as Dark Horse's Serenity series, created by Joss Whedon.


"This is my first show ever in New Jersey, so I'm excited for this weekend. I'm looking forward to meeting fans, thanking them for their support and signing some books!" states Artist John Cassaday.

"John is a great talent and we're fortunate to have him attending the show - his work on Star Wars is one of those special opportunities that both the serious collector and the casual fan can enjoy equally," said Martha Donato, Executive Director and Founder the New Jersey Comic Expo." States Mad Event's Martha Donato.


With less than 30 days before Star Wars Episode VII, fans can bring copies of Star Wars to be signed by Cassaday.
