Top Cow has released its schedule of panels and booth signings for this weekend’s Wizard World Chicago.

Jones. “Not only are we bringing CEO and Founder Marc Silvestri to the show, we’ve also invited Puerto-Rico based Madame Mirage artist Kenneth Rocafort, popular Darkness writer Phil Hester and Magdalena/Daredevil artist Eric Basaldua to meet the Midwest fans!â€
You can find Top Cow at booth #1204.
