Jeff Smith is a sweatheart- super nice

my son asked a question in a panel a few years ago when he was into Bone. 
"So, how did you come up with the Dream Smoke idea when they all went into the cave?"  the whole room laughed
Jeff himmed & hawwed

then we stood in line for his autograph & Jeff recognized Lewis, laughed & asked me if he answered Ok....

does anyone know if more indie comic book artists ever show up?? (charles burns, adrian tomine, daniel clowes etc) and if so will they be announced on the comic con website or should i check their publisher's websites?

i'd check the publishers web sites *and* the individual artist's sites/twitter.  It seems as tho people will announce it themselves. if you follow them on twitter or Facebook, ask them.
