The Never-Ending, Four-Color Festival: Cons, Shows, Events
By Tom Spurgeon
* Joe Keatinge is the new president of the Board of Directors for the
Stumptown Comics Fest, and
he'd like for people to join him and new Secretary Pollyanne Birge.
* the writer Peter David, whose family attends a lot of conventions,
is thinking about writing a Bill Of Rights-style conduct manifesto for those events.
* Seattle's
Short Run show was last weekend. From the few things I've heard, it went well enough for someone to do another. That's good news: Seattle not having a small press show seems sort of ridiculous, really. Let's hope it sticks.
Here's a blog report.
*
Thought Bubble in Leeds is ongoing, and
the Miami Book Fair has some comics-related events if you poke around, or slip down to the "forthcoming events" post on this blog.
BD Boum is the big European festival of the week.
* speaking of Europe, a theory that Cosey will win the Grand Prix at Angouleme early in 2012 is presented
here. That's more comments than I've ever seen for a post on that site.
*
here's a full breakdown of exhibitors at the forthcoming Brooklyn Comics And Graphics Festival. I don't think I've run a link to that exact page yet.
* finally,
two more reports from the Fall road trip taken by John Porcellino.
