ComicConnect President Vincent Zurzolo will be joining other comic creators for an Artists’ Talk at the POW! BAM! WOW! exhibit at the Hudson Guild Gallery in Manhattan. This collection of comic book art features works by artists such as Neal Adams, Eric Battle, N. Steven Harris, and Rob Prior. The pieces also include original art from The Addiction, written by Zurzolo and co-creator David Quinn. Claudia Balboni’s interior art for the title will be on display, alongside Ryan Brown’s variant cover of superheroine Niki Tino for The Addiction #2.
The Addiction #1 sold over 17,500 digital and print copies, with the book marking Quinn’s return to comics after his acclaimed work in Doctor Strange and Faust: Love of the Damned. The comic is Zurzolo’s latest adventure in the industry after 25 years of leading vintage comics and original art auctions at ComicConnect. Eisner-nominated artist Balboni has built an international following for her work on titles such as Image’s Fairlady and Killer Queens from Dark Horse.
The “POW! BAM! WOW!” panel discussion will take place on Tuesday, October 1, at 4 PM. The show runs through October 20 at 441 West 26th Street, with viewing hours between 10 AM and 6 PM from Tuesday to Friday, and 12 PM to 3 PM on Saturdays. More information is available by calling (212) 760-9837.
