it's yaytime!

July 18, 2006

Wednesday July 19th-Sunday July 23 I'll be at the big San Diego Comic con
Since I love chaos, this is my all time favorite week of the year.
It's like Halloween...except indoors...and the people in costume come to
your decorated table and give you money in exchange for your cartoon
related treats!

I'll mostly be at the Cryptic Press/Take Out Comics table, which is R2
in small press alley (Aisle 1900). That's where you'll also find my
insanely talented friends John Green, Marion Vitus, and Raina
Telgemeier.

We'll have a diverse sampling of comics, t-shirts, buttons, stickers,
bookmarks and even videogames!

If anyone asks, this is the "must see panel" at comic con. :)

R. Sikoryak. (RAW) reads his comic strip bending, "Real FUNNY Estate" then asks the audience if they can identify the comic strips and characters involved.

Johnny Ryan (Angry Youth Comix) and Steve Weissman (Yikes!) face off against Deep Orange, Nickelodeon's advanced cartooning computer! Audience reaction will determine whether technology can outwit humanity when it comes to creating gag cartoons.
