In case anyone is interested, there are 2 panels with 'celebrity moderators'.

In What Universe? in 300AB at 12:15 Friday has Tom Payne (Jesus on TWD) as moderator and From Stage to Screen in 207 at 10 am Saturday has Stephanie Cornellussen (Joanna Wellick on Mr. Robot) and Amber Midthunder (Kerry on Legion) as hosts.

Kevin Smith is also a moderator.

Dylan Bruce (Paul from Orphan Black) will be in the Midnight, Texas panel on Saturday at 11:45am, so you'll get a little bit of OB!

I have a question, does anyone know how the big movie panel & cast signing for the arena works? Like say last year at WonderCon 2016, they had Stephen Amell & Megan Fox for a signing for TNMT: Out of the shadows, but no where on there schedule did it say that they were there nor was there a raffle for the signing, just a listing of the panel with the producers. So in those cases, how does one get into the signing? Thank you, truly appreciate it. Same for like the SDCC panels, those big ones for like the DCEU or MCU, they don't list it on their signing schedule.

Thanks I'll check this panel out. I'm really disappointed in the lack of panels that I was hoping for, by lack I mean not one panel is going to be there.
As I mentioned earlier Twin Peaks, American Gods, Orphan Black. Amc had the perfect spot to premiere early Better Call Saul or at least a panel, and I really enjoyed Preacher and they are also skipping.
Westworld is my favorite show next to Game of Thrones and again the cast is at Paleyfest and we get a "fan" Westworld panel.
Sorry for complaining but I'm just seeing how amazing SXSW was and also the Paleyfest lineup. Next year I'm saving up for 10 days of SXSW.
Well I do have Cinemacon next week, so I might cheer up.

WonderCon has never been known for big wow panels. I don't ever remember AMC bringing any shows there. It's mostly just been NBC and CW that bring shows and Fox does a movie panel, but it's always a kinda lesser movie panel and not one that's their big movies of the Summer. WB did a movie panel too I think, but it was some movie with The Rock. I'm pretty impressed with the Riverdale panel having all the stars....that's another thing that happens at WonderCon, the main stars might not be there, but in the case of Riverdale ALL of them are listed so I'm excited.

The Fanbase Press staff is very excited to be exhibiting once again at WonderCon 2017, alongside a number of other talented independent creators! Taking place from March 31-April 2, 2017, at the Anaheim Convention Center, the annual event is a celebration of comic books and pop culture that showcases the exceptional works of talented writers, artists, illustrators, and creators of all pop culture genres. Throughout the weekend, we will be reporting live from the convention floor, providing you with the coolest interviews, commentaries, screening details, and photos - along with meeting fans at the Fanbase Press booth (Small Press SP-99), where you can purchase all of our comics and graphic novels! Plus, Fanbase Press' staff and contributors will be participating in quite a few intriguing panels throughout the weekend that you will not want to miss!

Fans in attendance will have a chance to stop by the Fanbase Press booth to pick up copies of Hero Hotel, Penguins vs. Possums, The Arcs, Something Animal, Identity Thief, and Fearworms: Selected Poems! As a special treat, Fanbase Press will be selling the official Fanbase Press t-shirt in sizes Small - XXL, so that attendees may show their geek pride in style. Plus, don't miss your chance to pre-order a copy of Fanbase Press' upcoming all-ages graphic novels, Quince and The Gamma Gals!

In addition, Sebastian Kadlecik (creator of Quince, creator/co-writer/co-artist of Penguins vs. Possums) will be signing copies of his comics at the booth, and Dr. Andrea Letamendi and Brian Ward of the critically acclaimed podcast, The Arkham Sessions, will be on hand to meet listeners and field questions about Batman: The Animated Series.  You also won't want to miss #WonderWomanWednesday series writer Michael Fitzgerald Troy who will be at the booth to geek out with fans about all-things Wonder Woman!

I must say that I am a little disappointed that they aren't bringing Preacher back this year - I didn't go to WonderCon last year, so I was hoping to see them. Hopefully, they'll go to SDCC...
