The Never-Ending, Four-Color Festival: Cons, Shows, Events

By Tom Spurgeon

* the CAKE 2012 exhibitor application is up. That's a mid-June Chicago show.

* here's the full programming slate at the Brooklyn Comics And Graphics Festival. It looks like a good one.

* Montreal's expozine is this weekend, a show with which I'm unfamiliar enough that I'm not sure if it's capitalized or not. The site listing isn't capitalized, so there you go. I bet that will be a good show. We should declare the weekend after Thanksgiving "Handmade Comics Weekend." No particular reason, I just like suggesting that things be named.

* most of this site's audience is probably gearing up for the aforementioned BCGF. Here's the exhibitor map and exhibitor list. The exhibitor list is nice because they put down the debut books, which means you can look for them. Ten days out and I'm already con-tired, writing sentences like that.

* Michael Dooley would like very much for you to read his Long Beach Comic Con convention report.

* finally, there were a couple of con-related news items this week that couldn't wait for this column to roll out, to which I'll now re-link. Image Comics has announced its own convention for February. This strikes me as a potentially smart move. The French-language site ActuaBD.com is the place to go for news on BD Boum and Le Festival De Colomiers.
