– Z2 Comics is excited to announce a limited edition WELCOME TO SHOWSIDE issue #1 variant cover by Rian Sygh (STOLEN FOREST) – available only at New York Comic Con (NYCC). Sygh and WELCOME TO SHOWSIDE creator Ian McGinty will both be on hand at NYCC, which kicks off Thursday, October 8th, to sign the exclusive, extremely limited edition issues.
WELCOME TO SHOWSIDE, due in stores October 28th from Z2 Comics, is artist Ian McGinty’s creator-owned debut.

“Advance copies of the first issue of my brain baby, WELCOME TO SHOWSIDE, with a whimsical Rian Sygh variant cover exclusively for NYCC is cool cool cool!” says McGinty.
Adds Z2 Comics Co-Publisher Josh Frankel, “WELCOME TO SHOWSIDE makes its debut this weekend — and with it, Z2 Comics will debut our new creator-owned periodical line at NYCC, the East Coast’s biggest convention. This is the moment we’ve been working towards for a very long time.”
