BOB LAYTON TO JOIN TEAM ZOOM SUIT AT MEGACON

Fans of comics are in for a treat this February 24-26 in Orlando, Florida as legendary artist and Future Comics founder, Bob Layton, will be attending MegaCon as a guest of Superverse and Team Zoom Suit. Layton, who is one of the “Armored Legends” artists who has provided an exclusive variant cover for the Zoom Suit comic series, will be on hand to sign autographs and answer fans’ questions.

Team Zoom Suit will be appearing at the three day convention at the Orange County Convention Center showcasing the animated film Zoom Suit and displaying the first issue of the April releasing comic series. Zoom Suit writer and director, John Taddeo, will be in appearance, along with the animation team of Jorge Palacios, Nakia Mann, Diana Striker, Mike Centowski, Booker Thompson, Derrick Dawson and Cameron Kirk. Comic book artist Billy Dallas Patton will also be appearing and signing autographs. An exclusive MetalFX Zoom Suit promo card set has been created to commemorate the event.

“Having Bob at MegaCon with us is great for the fans, including myself,” said Taddeo. “His career speaks for itself, but if I had to say one thing, it would be that his cover to Iron Man #118 back when I was a kid was the initial inspiration for the Zoom Suit story. It’s that same feeling that I’m hoping a new generation will get when they read the Zoom Suit comic.”

The award-winning animated short Zoom Suit, created by John Taddeo, can be seen online at www.superverse.com. The Zoom Suit comic book will be solicited under Superverse in the February edition of Previews for items shipping in April 2006 on page 313. It can be ordered using product code: FEB063259.
