As we continue our profiles of this year's special guests, we turn our attention to creator Faith Erin Hicks.
Hailing from Nova Scotia, Hicks first came to prominence with her webcomic Demonology 101, but has been busy with a variety of material since the series ended in 2004. Early last year, publisher First Second released Hick's Friends With Boys and will be releasing Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong (co-created with Prudence Shen) in the coming weeks. Hicks will be participating in the limited-edition art prints project in this year's festival, creating a fantastic image based on her title Adventures of Superhero Girl that was released in hardcover format from Dark Horse Comics earlier this year!
