BOOM! Studios Reveals Exclusives for Both WonderCon and Awesome Con

As a comic book publisher that marches to its own drum, BOOM! Studios has just unveiled the exclusive covers it will offer at no less than two — that’s right, count ’em, two! — conventions this weekend. This feat’s all the more impressive when one considers these cons will take place on opposite sides of the country. Yes, the boys and girls at BOOM! will have a booth, creators, panels, signings, and sketch opportunities at both WonderCon in Anaheim, California (at which the whole Nerdist team will also have its very own booth) and Awesome Con in Washington, D.C. on April 18th through 20th. There’s a little something for everyone at these shows, with titles like Adventure Time, Herobear and the Kid, Bravest Warriors, Lumberjanes, and Translucid. Take a peek at the con-exclusive covers:
