BELLINGHAM - Some well-known artists in the comic book world, including one working on the storyline of Archie marrying Veronica, will be on hand for Bellingham ComiCon this weekend.

The convention will feature James Taylor, inker and publisher of Rorschach Entertainment; Brandon Jerwa, writer for "Battlestar Galactica," "G.I. Joe" and "Highlander;" and Randy Emberlin, artist and inker for "Amazing Spider-Man," "G.I Joe" and more, said Eric Burris, convention organizer.

Also attending will be Western Washington University alumnus Bob Smith, who is returning to Bellingham for the convention after working as an artist and inker for Archie Comics on the East Coast for the past 15 years, Burris said.

Smith is currently inking the highly anticipated "Archie Gets Married" storyline, which follows the engagement and marriage of girl-crazy Archie Andrews to the rich and glamorous Veronica Lodge, Burris said.

Although the convention's guests will not hold panel discussions, they will be available to fans throughout the day for conversation, questions and autographs, Burris said.

Roughly 20 exhibitors will be at the event selling comics, science-fiction toys and other comic book memorabilia, Burris said.

The Bellingham ComiCon is from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 24, at the Hampton Inn's Fox Hall, 3985 Bennett Drive. Admission is $5. Children 7 and younger get in free. For more information, visit bellinghamcomicon.com.
