Why I’ll Be Looking Out The Window All Weekend With A Sad Look On My Face While Mournful Music Plays

The Chicago Tribune previews the Hillary Chute-led comics conference at the University Of Chicago this weekend. Attending sounds like the comics equivalent of being able to watch the 1992 NBA Olympic Dream Team scrimmage.

There's a funny moment in there where the Tribune writer constructs a couple of sentences that could make you believe Chute constructed her invite list with input from Joe Sacco so as not put the world of comics at risk from a multi-generational anti-comics terrorist attack, but that's the only thing that's amusing about not being at the front row of what may be the greatest assemblage of arts- and alt-comics ever.
