I know this is somewhat early to be talking about this subject, but I felt it important to ride a certain hobby horse of mine—supporting Halloween ComicFest again this year! It takes place on Saturday, October 26!
I think Free Comic Book Day continues to soar even higher every year, and I hope the same can be said about Halloween ComicFest coming this month as well!
I thought this week I’d talk about why NYCC is important for the industry as well as what I felt works on many levels.
In just a few days, the four-day New York Comic Con will get underway. It’s one of my very favorite conventions all year, and this year DC and Warner Bros. are shining their light on everyone’s madcap crazy girl, Harley Quinn!
This past Saturday, September 21, was the yearly celebration of DC’s best-known character, Batman. It…
This past weekend, I attended the One-Year Anniversary celebration at BAMF! Comics Coffee Community in Maitland, Florida. September 14th was the exact date when, a year ago, the store opened.

I’m struck by a variety of emotions and thoughts!
Now Marvel is bringing back the original Alpha Flight team, and the creative team is from Canada!
One of things I noticed as I checked out the Artist Alley and Exhibitor booths was that most creators had more than one creation available for fans. I was reminded of the old potato chip commercial that said, “no one can eat just one.”
There was a particularly good turnout in the early part of the con, and it got me thinking that bigger isn’t necessarily better, especially when it comes to cons.
Marvel is not a company to rest on their laurels! Now the House of Ideas is again attempting to conquer the audiobook market!
The question is, “Will it be worth their time and effort?”
