Flashy People at New York Comic Con

New York Comic Con starts today, and the guests include The Flash‘s writer & artist team of Geoff Johns and Francis Manapul, former Flash writer Mark Waid, and former Flash artists Freddie Williams II (“Wild Wests” and “Fast Money”) and Salvador Larroca (“Terminal Velocity”).

Francis Manapul has posted his signing schedule, and notes that the program lists his Artist’s Alley table as A-8, but he’ll actually be at A-6.

Flash TV Show’s Joyce Hyser (Megan Lockhart) Appearing in Chicago

Next weekend (September 25-26), actress Joyce Hyser will be signing autographs at the Hollywood Celebrities & Memorabilia Show at the Hilton Rosemont / Chicago O’Hare Airport Hotel.

On the 1990 Flash TV series, Hyser played the recurring character Megan Lockhart, a private detective who figured out Barry Allen’s identity. She returned to Central City twice in later episodes, pursuing the fugitive James Jesse, only to find herself the object of his obsession when he became the Trickster.

DC Trivia Contest: Win a Signed Flash #1 through Twitter

DC has announced a contest for a signed copy of the upcoming Flash #1. During the week leading up to the April 14 release, the @DC_Nation Twitter account will post one Flash trivia question each day. The first five fans to answer each question correctly will be “eligible to win” a signed copy of the launch.

It’s not clear how many copies they’ll award, or how they’ll choose which of the up-to-35 eligible respondents will win them. They don’t actually come out and say that it’s Geoff Johns and Francis Manapul doing the signing, though it seems a safe bet.

Details will be announced on April 7.
