Thank You, Los Angeles; Congrats CALA; Sorry, Everyone



I'm grateful to the good comics (and other arts industry) people of Los Angeles for being such gracious hosts and interesting people on my last trip of the year. I'm particularly indebted to my brother, Whit. I think CALA was an excellent first show and shimmers with promise; my report will appear December 19th. My apologies to all my LA friends I didn't get to see on this trip. I planned it about a month ago but had canceled it in my head before deciding last minute to take it. I barely saw anyone out of my direct sphere of brother-driving-me-around influence, and hope you'll forgive me the social faux pas of my neglect.

I was particularly happy to head to Los Angeles on the cusp of 2015. The continuing number of opportunities in animation, the progression of several comics-makers into people of interest for film and TV development, and the move of DC Comics east to west may mark 2015 as the year when LA becomes the biggest city in North American comics.
