I’m finished packing and ready to head out to Columbus, Ohio, for Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo. I was looking for some shows I hadn’t been to and were different from my general Mid-Atlantic tour.
Still, money is an issue, so that quickly began ruling things out (one of these years, I’ll make it to Stumptown Comics Fest, I swear). But Ohio didn’t seem to far off and the list of exhibitors had some old favorites and some creators who don’t seem to go out to the East Coast too often, so it seemed like a good idea.
So I enlisted my friend Timothy Lantz to come along and suggested he get a table (it’s not necessarily his scene or crowd, but he knows a few people who do exhibit there every year). It will be great to see him for an extended length of time.
Yes, I know everyone else is going to C2E2 and while it wasn’t an option for me, really, I’m still happy to be going to SPACE.
If you’ll be there, I’ll likely be hanging around Tim’s table quite a bit. Otherwise, I’ll be buying and reading comics and the sorts of things people do at shows like this.
I will probably be updating throughout on Twitter and Facebook, but I’ll have something up here no later than Monday evening.
It will be a fun vacation. And will continue my tradition of visiting places and really only seeing the inside of a hotel/conference center.
