TEN SPEED PRESS, TEN SPEED GRAPHIC, AND CLARKSON POTTER RETURN TO NEW YORK COMIC CON 2024!

Ten Speed Press, Ten Speed Graphic, and Clarkson Potter will return to New York Comic Con 2024 (PRH booth #3021) with over 12 authors and exciting panels, signings, con-exclusives, and a Harvey award nomination.

HARVEY NOMINATION

Watership Down, the world-famous novel by Richard Adams, has been translated into more than 40 languages, sold millions of copies, and been adapted for film and television multiple times. It has never been out of print since its first publication in 1972. The new, Eisner-award winning graphic novel adaptation from Ten Speed Graphic, adapted by James Sturm and illustrated by Joe Sutphin, has been nominated for a 2024 Harvey Award in the “Best Book of the Year” category. The Harvey winners will be announced at a ceremony at the Javits Center on Friday, October 18th. Read the full list of 2024 Harvey Award nominees here.

Joe Sutphin (illustrator), James Sturm (adaptor), and Rosamond Mahony (daughter of Watership Down author Richard Adams) will make an appearance at the PRH booth at NYCC on Friday, October 18 at 12:45PM EST and are available for interview.
