IN CASE YOU MISSED IT- Cherry Capital Comic Con is honored to announce that the ONE, the ONLY, comics legend JIM STERANKO will be appearing at #TCC4Year10!

JIM STERANKO has cut a ferocious path through the entertainment arts, with a dozen successful careers to his credit: author, magician, illustrator, escape artist, historian. He is cited as one of the prime architects of Marvel Comics and the co-creator of NICK FURY, AGENT OF S.H.I.E.L.D. He also wrote and drew CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE HULK, SUPERMAN, and THE X-MEN (for which he designed the classic title logo); generated more than 150 original storytelling devices and techniques that changed the direction of the comics’ medium; and evolved a devoted cult of followers who have nicknamed him The Innovator. WIZARD magazine credits Steranko as the 5th Most Influential Artist in the history of the form.

His recent CAPTAIN AMERICA covers topped Marvel sales charts; the IDW SHIELD ARTIST’S EDITION sold out before publication (and won an Eisner Award); and the new, 2017 OVERSTREET PRICE GUIDE—with his Batman cover—had record-breaking sales. He is the only artist to have covers on the landmark CAPTAIN AMERICA 700 and ACTION 1000. And he’s still the best-dressed man in comics.
