Eisner-winning comic creator Sean Murphy will be returning to Charm City as a guest at this year’s Baltimore Comic-Con, being held on October 18-20, 2019.

Murphy broke into the business by writing and illustrating Punk Rock Jesus and has since gone on to work with top writers on titles like Joe the Barbarian, American Vampire, The Wake, Chrononauts, and Tokyo Ghost. His recent Batman: White Knight story has garnered critical and popular acclaim, and he is currently working on the follow-up arc, Batman: Curse of the White Knight, hitting shelves starting in July 2019.

“We’ve got a lot of Batman creators in the room this year,” said Marc Nathan, show promoter for the Baltimore Comic-Con. “We’re really just trying to build an amazing guest list, and a handful of these awesome creators happen to have done some significant work on a Batman book! Sean is the latest talent to enter the room who falls into that category, but he’s an amazing creator in his own right, regardless of what he’s working on. He is a huge addition to our 2019 guest list (which we’re already pretty happy with so far), and we know his fans are going to be thrilled to know they’ll get to meet him at our show this year.”

Tickets are now on sale for Baltimore Comic-Con, which include individual day passes, weekend-long passes, and VIP tickets.
