Templesmith joins MCM Expo Line Up

(via Tony Lee): Comics artist and writer Ben Templesmith has joined the massive line up of guests attending the MCM London Expo on 25-26th October in London's Docklands.

Ben, whose credits include 30 Days of Night and Fell, and who has received multiple nominations for the American comic industry’s top prize, the Eisner Award, has just published his cover to issue #6 of Doctor Who: The Forgotten over at his blog, as well as one of the first pencil sketches he did of the page.

Ben's cover will feature in the guide for the Expo, part of an eight page comic preview which also includes the six page 'Third Doctor' part of Doctor Who: The Forgotten #2 by Tony Lee and Pia Guerra. Tony will also be at the event, doing signings and judging the Cosplay together as well as appearing on panels.

In addition to a host of media guests such as Ben (Prince Caspian) Barnes, artists and writers at the vent include John Aggs, Dan Boultwood, Kate Brown, Svetlana Chmakova, Paul Duffield, Marc Ellerby, Kieron Gillen, Charlie Higson, David Hine, Frazer Irving, Sonia Leong, John McCrea, Jamie McKelvie, Andie Tong, Lee Townsend, Kev Walker and Antony Johnston.

In The Forgotten, the Doctor and Martha find themseleves stranded in a strange Museum that's dedicated to the Time Lord - and with no TARDIS in sight, the pair must make sense of their surroundings, hindered by one small fact - the Doctor has lost his memories of every one of his previous incarnations! With items relevant to each Doctor in their possession, The Doctor must try to use them to regain his memories before it's too late, starting with his earliest incarnation's memories, involving Susan, Barbara and Ian. This all-new series is written by Tony Lee and features artist Pia Guerra in her first monthly comic since Y The Last Man.
