Press Release
A few days after the Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo (S.P.A.C.E.), Michael S. Bracco (BIRTH, NOVO) and H.C. Noel (MR. SCOOTLES) are both still reeling from the creator-friendly show.
Bracco, who received a finalist award for his graphic novel BIRTH, had this to say about his 2nd time at the show, “SPACE is a great show to do. I love the vibe of the show, the true sense of a comic community and being among collegues of such a high caliber.” A handful of select creators managed to qualify as a finalist for the S.P.A.C.E. prize (which honors the best of small press and indie comics) and that fact wasn’t left unknown by the BIRTH writer/artist, “Getting the nomination was very validating. [Creating] comics can often feel like an unforgiving road and it’s nice to have someone like Bob Corby out there to help us feel validated after a lot of what can feel like unrewarding work!”.
