Hey sticky friends! Don’t forget I’ll be a guest at Intervention in Rockville, MD September 10-12.
Webcomics, artists, bloggers, gaming, anime, dance parties, burlesque. 24 hours a day. Clearly this is the place to be. You might want to pre-register now.
Have you registered yet? Good.
Meanwhile …
I’m going to be appearing at the New York Comic Con in New York City this October 8-10. This is going to be huge and fun (although not the killer party expected at Intervention). Assuming I can wrap up in time I will even be putting out a real book there, which will be a collection of work from sticky comics, plus some new comics too! More news on that soon. So excited!
Hey, that’s the same weekend as SPX, which is sorta good and sorta bad… tho I just want to go to SPX for Kate Beaton and Dean Haspiel. Do you think this is a better gathering for an aspiring web-comics artist to hob nob at?
Yeah, I know — I love SPX too! The two cons happening the same weekend is an unfortunate mistake — SPX is doing a different weekend from usual apparently.
You might consider one day of SPX and 1-2 days of Intervention if you want to do both. The two are really close — SPX is in Bethesda and Intervention is in Rockville.
Anyway, this is the first year of Intervention and I think it’s a great concept and am really happy I’ll be there. There’s a ton of energy and a lot of momentum building behind it that will make it really special. As far as webcomics hob-nobbing, Intervention is all about webcomics while SPX is a bit more zine and indie comics focused, plus Intervention is a lot more party-oriented … :)
Anyway, I hope you can make it! :)
