Tori Amos Talks About the Image Comics Book Based on her Songs

View Beth Accomando's bio

We posted a video of Neil Gaiman recounting his first introduction to Tori Amos' music more than a decade ago at Comic-Con. Now check out the panel Tori Amos was on at this year's Comic-Con where she discussed the gorgeous Image Comics book Comic Book Tattoo, inspired by her songs. Rantz Hoseley joins her on the panel. Amos explains how she got to play "S&M artist with corporate." She also describes the special, limited edition version of the book. Sounds decadent.

Thanks to Comic-Con for clips of the panel for our news coverage.

Image Comics Reunion at the 2007 Comic-Con

View Beth Accomando's bio

Last year, Comic-Con had a fabulous panel called Image Comics: The Founders. The event rounded up all the key players in the ground-breaking company — Erik Larsen, Jim Lee, Rob Liefeld, Todd McFarlane, Whilce Portacio, Marc Silvestri, and Jim Valentino. The group reunited for Image's amazing 15th anniversary. Image gained fame when these seven top artists broke away from Marvel and DC.  The company is now famous for its  creator-owned line of comics. Listen to these comics greats reminisce about the founding of Image Comics. Thanks to Comic-Con for highlight footage for our news coverage.

The Image Comics Booth is #2729. Stop by and see what's new. They will present Image Comics Show (Friday, 4:00-5:00 PM, Room 7AB) and Tori Amos (Saturday, 11:30 AM, Toom 6B).
