Level-Up: Taking Your Comics to the Next Tier • Saturday July 25, 2026 5:00pm - 6:00pm PDT • Room 11 Marcus McNeal (editor-in-chief, Odyssey Comics), Rob Pilkington (writer, Slight Return), April Connors (creator, Everybody's Happy Nowadays, as Prof. Raco), Joshua Pruett (writer, Stranger Things Tales From '85; The Last Comics on Earth), and Amy Linsamouth (writer, Jackie and the Magical Guys; Byte Me) discuss strategies for creating comics that stand out, including what separates good ideas from great projects and why so many comics fall short despite solid art or writing. Topics include shaping pitches with clarity and intent, assembling and leading creative teams, navigating editorial without losing your voice, and making choices that give a project a distinct identity.

Perhaps ordinary politics will succeed tomorrow. But it could not undo these crimes; it could not retroactively prevent them. The failure to act sooner—to act urgently, preemptively—is a perfectly mainstream grievance in American political life so long as the perpetrators of preemptive violence are the Pentagon or the police. It is only the Left that is accused of irrational impatience. It is helpful, once again, to resolve the abstract into the particular. One must imagine a sensible and centrist columnist, bloody hands clawing desperately through the rubble of his recently bombed-out DC town house in search of his child, buried below.
