Aspen Comics is arriving at this year’s Comic Con in San Diego with their largest-ever assortment of show exclusives and new releases. The publisher is debuting five new mini-series at the show as well as two brand new properties, all at the Aspen Comics Booth #2321.

The Official Aspen Comics Panel for this year’s Comic Con will take place on Friday from 12pm-1pm in Room 4. Aspen has several exciting announcements about the future of Aspen Comics, also including the revealing of a brand new original property, paired with one of the industry’s most acclaimed writers, and the return of two popular series from the Aspen Universe. A huge assortment of Aspen’s creators and a few surprise guests will be on hand at this year’s panel to preview the company’s future plans.

Aspen and director McG’s Wonderland Sound and Vision have teamed up for an all-new original horror concept, Haunted City. The property, created by Chap Taylor, and written by Taylor and Peter Johnson with art by Michael Ryan, is simultaneously being developed into a feature script, a TV pilot, and a multi-platform video game, and will launch at the show with an exclusive Haunted City #0 San Diego Comic Con variant cover.

In addition to Haunted City, Aspen will also be launching their new sci-fi, action-adventure series, Broken Pieces. Created by Aspen’s own Mark Roslan and illustrated by newcomer Micah Kaneshiro, look for the special Broken Pieces #0 Talent Caldwell San Diego Comic Con exclusive cover being offered all weekend long.
