HEROES CON: DC COMICS' 52 PANEL
SUNDAY, JULY 2, 2006

HEROES CONVENTION CHARLOTTE 2006 (30 Jun-02 Jul 2006)
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Jann Jones, assistant editor of the weekly 52 series, told the crowd at DC Comics' 52 panel at Heroes Con on Saturday that an impressive list of artists has been lined up for back-up features.

Among those contributing will be Eric Powell, Brian Bolland, Adam Hughes, George Perez, Kevin Nowlan and Jones' husband, 52 cover artist J.G. Jones.

As far as interiors go, DC's Dan DiDio said that having Keith Giffen doing breakdowns gives 52 a consistent look, despite whomever is penciling.

"He can take so much information and put it out in a cohesive manner," DiDio said, noting that he didn't want a "jarring" issue-to-issue approach to the book despite the several pencilers.

"I've been watching the art come in and we're not compromising anything to get this out on a weekly basis," Jann Jones added.
