As reported by Robot 6, Brian K. Vaughan is slated to make an appearance at Image Comics' "Creator-Owned Comics With Robert Kirkman" panel on Saturday afternoon in San Diego. According to the panel description, the event will offer a series of major announcements. chief among those is likely a new project from the author of Y: The Last Man and Ex Machina, whose absence from the comics industry has left so many of us with an acute sensation of profound loss just posterior to our gall bladder. Nobody braves the crowds and contamination of SDCC without some sort of obligation, so it seems unlikely that BKV is just stopping by for a retrospective.
It's a forgone conclusion. Vaughan is returning to comics for a new series of cliffhangers. We don't know what form it will take or how long it will last, but we'll be keeping an eye on that panel come 3PM on Saturday.
Will it be about yetis?
A man who enjoys a second life as a Mayan priestess during hallucinatory experiences on a wooden roller coaster?
A girl whose imaginary friends must rescue her from an abduction by her father's corrupt cop partner?
Is it about how Pez is made?

this could be the biggest news of the con
I have no words for how excited I am about this.
A Brian K Vaughan announcement?
…
I want to go there.
Hot damn! Outstanding news!
I hope it’s a comic!
I am toooooo excited!
HURRAAAAAAY!
YESSSSSSSSSSS
It would definitely be exciting news if BKV was going to return to comics. I just hope he’s not going make an appearance at the panel to just discuss his past work. While it would be awesome for the panel audience, it would be a huge bummer for the rest of us
Please do not tease! Y: The Last Man turned me from a sometimes reader to a regular. I definately miss BKV

i dont wanna get my hopes too high, but this is very exciting news!
“A girl whose imaginary friends must rescue her from an abduction by her father’s corrupt cop partner? “
Stealing this if no one else is going to so it
I to want to go to there.
I’m so f***ing excited for all the news coming from SDCC, it’s a shame though that the SDCC weekend will be the start of my camping vacation (which means, no acces to the internet…).
Well, i should look at it from the bright side, i will have all the news ordered out and clear for me to read when i’m back.
But damn, Brian K. Vaughn, now i’m even more excited.
I’m quite pleased with this development…
Brian K. Vaughn announces……..his twitter account name!
If he announces a new creator owned series, I can’t think of anything that would be bigger news for me personally.
Trying to not get my hopes up too much.
so the project with those two might still be happening. I’m glad it worked out with him and those two. ( if I think it’s what I’m thinking)
We need this guy writing comics again. Hope the announcement doesn’t disappoint.
He’s announcing Pride of Baghdad, Part II: Return of the Pride.
I can’t help it… my hopes are up. Anything less than a new BKV series will leave me crestfallen.
He’s my favourite comic writer and his absence has been felt.
“Brian will be taking over as head writer on the Walking Dead TV series based on MY creator owned title. Psyche!”
