Fiddler's Green Announces Jill Thompson as Guest

Fiddler's Green is delighted to announce that Jill Thompson will be a guest at
Fiddler’s Green, A Sandman Convention. Jill will be joining Neil
Gaiman, Karen Berger, Todd Klein, Caitlin R. Kiernan and Charles Vess
at this convention to benefit the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund.

Jill Thompson is one of the most highly regarded artists currently
working in the comics industry, acclaimed for her work on such comic
titles as WONDER WOMAN, SWAMP THING, BLACK ORCHID, and SANDMAN. Her
"Little Endless" characterizations are particularly beloved by SANDMAN
fans. She co-created and illustrated the dark satire FINALS, and wrote
and illustrated the manga-style book AT DEATH'S DOOR, featuring Death
from SANDMAN. Her first children's book, THE SCARY GODMOTHER, has
become a multiple book and comic series and was adapted as a television
show, "Scary Godmother Halloween Spooktacular," which aired in Canada
last year. Jill is the recipient of multiple Eisner and Squiddie awards.
