The fantastic fanatics of Nerd City are hosting yours truly & Jim Mahfood at this year's Chicago Comics & Entertainment Expo (C2E2).

Dig the press release below for all the sexy details!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Infamous Art and Media Collective Presents Panel, Booth, and Super Arcadia Insania After-Party for 4th Annual Convention Appearance

Nerd City returns to C2E2 with a booth (#967 in The Block), panel (Sat. April 27th, 6:30 p.m, room W470a), and Super Arcadia Insania After-Party (Sat. April 27th, 8:00 p.m. Logan Hardware, 2410 W. Fullerton, $20, http://arcadia.bpt.me), featuring numerous exclusives, guest artists, and a signature penchant for trouble.

Located in The Block, 'C2E2's edgy and artistic design community', Nerd City's booth (#967) will include appearances and exclusive toy, comic, and print work from Jim 'Food One' Mahfood, Dave 'King Gum' Crosland, The Godbeast, L'Amour Supreme, Buff Monster, Skinner, ManOrMonster?, and Nerd City's own Ben 'Galaxxor' Spencer.  This array of talent represents one of the greatest indie/alt/designer art line-ups in comic convention history.

Nerd City's rowdy, boozy and unhinged panels have become the stuff of C2E2 legend, and this year will be no exception (Sat. April 27th, 6:30 p.m, room W470a). Programming includes announcements regarding the future of the brand, hilarious, rambling anecdotes of debauchery, and a serious roster of special guests. The panel will conclude with a special screening of 'Disco Destroyer', the new cartoon from Jim Mahfood and Scott Mosier, with the artist on hand for Q&A. Plus, as always, there will be prizes. 

Saturday night also sees Super Arcadia Insania, Nerd City's fourth annual C2E2 After Party (Sat. April 27th, 8:00 p.m), co-sponsored by Shawnimals. Hosted at record store/playable arcade museum/music venueLogan Hardware (2410 W.
