Comic-Con International started under another name in 1970. Around 1972, I began hosting panels there…one or two per convention at first but eventually my load swelled to double-digits. Here's the schedule from one year as it appeared on this blog back when it too went under another name. Keep in mind that these are the people who were supposed to be on these panels. Every so often, someone didn't show up and/or someone was added…

Harvey, Russell Myers, Don Rosa, Irwin Donenfeld, Chuck Cuidera, Ric Estrada, Ramona Fradon, Mart Nodell, Alvin Schwartz, Julius Schwartz, Bob Bergen, Gregg Berger, Greg Berg, Tom Kane, Jack Kirby, Mike Royer, Will Eisner, Dan Spiegle
