Today’s The Stack is sponsored by The Con Artist by Fred Van Lente, published by Quirk Books.
Comic book artist Mike Mason arrives at San Diego Comic-Con expecting just another con—and maybe a chance to reunite with his ex-wife—but when his rival murdered, he becomes the prime suspect. To clear his name, Mike will have to navigate every corner of the con, from intrusive fans and obsessive collectors to the world’s slowest chase scene down the aisles of Hall H. In the process, he unravels a dark secret behind one of the industry’s most legendary creators. With ten illustrations and an unconventional setting, The Con Artist is perfect for comic fans and mystery lovers alike.
