Summer Conventions: Part 1!

[Matt]

We've got a really fun bunch of conventions we'll be appearing at over the coming months. We'll give out more information as it becomes available, but our first leg of cons has us in New York for the New York Comic Con (http://www.nycomiccon.com/) and Massachusetts for ROFLcon (http://roflcon.org/).

The New York Comic Con is from April 18-20 at the Jacob Javits Center. We'll be at booth 1759 drawing custom comics for fans and selling some t-shirts. Come make awkward conversation with some dudes who draw stick figures for a living.

ROFLcon is April 25-26, but we'll only be appearing at a panel on the 26th called "Making It Big" alongside Rooster Teeth, Brad Neely and Homestar Runner creators The Brothers Chap. The panel starts at 10:30.

We've got a couple more planned, including London and San Diego, so keep your eyes peeled to the front page for more information as we post it.

P.S. Dave says hi.

[Biguardo]

Are you all gonna show up?

Also, ROFLcon? C'mon.

[Nasal_sex]

YAY London! More UK conventions for definate!

[natalie137]

London? Fucking fantastic :D

[piklemeup]

It sucks how Calgary never has any good conventions that people I want to see go to.

[saturnine]

Consider Florida!

It's ugly in March but I'm here so it's cooler.
:D
&&& us deprived kids never have any comic conventions here.
EVER.


Just anime conventions all the time.

[Norik]

I remember you guys from ComiCon in San Diego...

Tell Rob thanks for the Potato comic.

[gizzalove]

I'm totally maybe coming to the San Diego comic-con this year. Someone needs to find a good comic con here in Canada.

[ArrogantFool]

Australian dates planned? No?
Well that sucks...

[Gump]

olol.

Well, I might be coming to the San Diego one considering I'm in Sacramento. Few hundred miles off.

[Oofie]

London's really happening? That's awesome.

[Assassin]

You're all welcome to stay at my house :douchecock:

[xkittenxsocksx]

I'm going to travel to London just to dick slap Aoife.

[Mirrorman]

God, I hate that all those are so far away from me and its insanely costy to fly anywhere near those places.

[xkittenxsocksx]

They have airports in Estonia?

[Mirrorman]

They have airports in Estonia?

Whats with all the hatred against me Twiggzy?

[CharlieH]

London eh.

I'll be there.

For sure.

[xkittenxsocksx]

London eh.

I'll be there.

For sure.

Aw shit now I can't go,
way to spoil it for everyone :mad:

[Oofie]

For sure.

You ruin everything :frown:

[CharlieH]

Well, look at it this way you assholes. If i'm there, you can give me slap to make yourselves feel better. :mad:

[guest]

whoo... awkward conversations... my favorite.

[xkittenxsocksx]

Well, look at it this way you assholes. If i'm there, you can give me slap to make yourselves feel better. :mad:

Fair enough, you better wear a sign saying CharlieH though.

[MaxAlcolo]

New York city is only 5 hours from Montreal. I'm really considering it since I have the money for that kind of trip.
I have no car though, so I'd have to take the bus unless someone nearby is going too.
Contact me through PM if interested.

[Goose]

I think I might go to ROFLcon this year. It's only about 10 minutes away from me. :)

[Ghoulz]

ROFLcon

AOLisms!


Should be a swell time.I'ts great that you guys are getting out there and showing your stuff. :)

[joshd108]

Are you guys going to be appearing at the California Comicon?

[Chester Berrington]

Ok I Will Go But To Only Molest Rob And Betchslap You Matt You Tall Son Of A Bitch!:doublefin
Seriously Stop Being So I Actually Have A Life And Do More Comics!
P.S
HI DAVE!!!!!! *waves frantically*

USER WAS PUT IN TIMEOUT FOR THIS POST. (http://forums.explosm.net/bankamp/)
Reason: Capitalizing Every Word Is So Cool, Don't You Agree?

[Quadros]

Hey Charlie if you're going to London can I get a picture of your face so I can make 'Fuck You CharlieH' T-Shirts for everyone?

[Matt]

Are you guys going to be appearing at the California Comicon?
In San Diego, yes. In what capacity, we're not entirely sure yet, but we'll be there.

[Mirrorman]

hatred?

Yeah, always making fun of me and the 'lil country I live in.
On topic, if you could visit the London one next year, maybe I could even show up :aaa: . But theres time so lets see.

[Desert]

Okay, since I live in Texas I can't go. Unless I hid in Rob's car or something.

[xkittenxsocksx]

I doubt you'd like London,
everyone is a cunt.

Yeah, always making fun of me and the 'lil country I live in.


Um yeah, still don't have a dinky doink what you're talking about?

[Far]

There is a really big one in toronto every summer.

I'm planning to go to the one in San Diego as well this year, we'll see what happens.

[Matt]

Info plz!

Looks like it's more about comic books, still might not hurt to try.

[Rob]

Okay, since I live in Texas I can't go. Unless I hid in Rob's car or something.

Just come to A-Kon in Dallas. We'll be there as well.

[Shagg]

I'm thinking of hitting up the New York Comic-Con, since I live in the Philly area and thats not too far away. It's a shame that the "real" comic-con is always on the other side of the country. :wail:

[xkittenxsocksx]

Does anyone here live in London?

[CharlieH]

I live about 1 hour away? Nat live about the same too.

New York is going to be better to meet us at. We have a booth all to ourselves.

[Rob]

What Matt said. As far as C&H involvement, New York is more "real" then San Diego, who continually turns us away.

[Shagg]

Well, what I meant by "real" is that the other Comic-Con is more publicized and made big about compared to this New York one, which I haven't heard of until now.

[Da_MerV]

HOLY SHIT! You're coming to MIT?! ^_^ Count me in!

[G-nius]

I naturally assume that London is an excuse to come back to Belfast? :D And allow me to have a drink with you guys this time, instead of being a designated driver >_>

[Balin]

Come to the capital of New Zealand! (Wellington, NOT Auckland)

Pleeeeeeease :)

[Quadros]

I live about 1 hour away? Nat live about the same too.

Some people who DON'T suck, like JoshE, also live there.

[Barista]

I'm really tempted to fly down to London...
Shame there's hardly any comic conventions in the UK. Never heard of any in Scotland at all.

[GnR]

I'm actually going to New York at the same time as the convention. I will definately stop by.

[Rob]

I'm actually going to New York at the same time as the convention. I will definately stop by.
Be sure to get a ticket in advance. "Stopping by" can result in a couple hours waiting in line.

[I_Smell]

Wow, I could genuinely go to one o these.
But fuck that, I've got better shit to do than hang out with a bunch of forumers.

What Matt said. As far as C&H involvement, New York is more "real" then San Diego, who continually turns us away.
Even though you're the most popular webcomic in the world, what a bunch of jerks.

[Con-Con]

Any chance of ye visiting Ireland?

[GnR]

Be sure to get a ticket in advance. "Stopping by" can result in a couple hours waiting in line.

Oh yeah...Forgot about that.

I'll definately buy tickets soon, THEN stop by. I'm such a genius.

[MusicalIdiot]

Seeing as I live in San Diego, I'll attend Comic Con as always, though last year was pretty lame since there wasn't anything new. Who knows, maybe I'll go to your guys' booth and go insane or ask for a comic.

[xMetalXSharkx]

Hey, I might see you guys in the Mass con.

[Desdemona]

I've already registered for San Diego Comic Con and can't wait to add you guys to my list of "must sees". See you in July!

[Lannes]

Sometimes i wish live there to go to this kind of thing.
I'll be there only on december. =/

[Dodger]

Are all four of you guys gonna be at the NY one?

[Matt]

Yes.

[Soralina]

I live on Long Island, so I'll definitely be there with as many people that I can drag along. :boogie:

I have to start planning a comic, so bye!

[Dave]

Any chance of ye visiting Ireland?

We did that last year. Ain't gonna happen this year, but since I live in Belfast I'm sure rob, matt and kris will return to visit at some point. We had a whale of a time with fans last year, like G-Nius above.

[lordspamelot]

Suddenly conventions! THOUSANDS OF THEM!

[Indoctrine]

I wish I had about three grand to spend on a plane trip to America to see a few web cartoonists... wow, that sounds kind of lame.

There's only a few types of conventions in Australia that I've heard of, most of them are computer ones. I'm pretty sure someone runs anime conventions here. Blargh. :wail:

[Matt]

If you find one and were even remotely interested, I'd probably use it as an excuse to visit.

[Indoctrine]

I'll definitely have a look, Google is my friend.
I probably wouldn't even be able to travel to Sydney though.
I could convince my parents that a world reknowned webcomic artist wants to meet me. But then again, my sister would probably want to go and I'd be able to stay with her. Older siblings are great.

[natalie137]

I live about 1 hour away? Nat live about the same too.

By the time the comic con's in London I'll be back home so I'll be about an hour and a half away, but already planned to come to this with a couple of non-forum friends from home who enjoy the comic if we can all get the time off work

[simplyinsane]

For the NY convention, are you guys going to be there all three days? I'm trying to figure out which day I should go and I don't want to get there on a day when you aren't there. (Kinda defeats my whole purpose of going, haha.)

[Matt]

We'll be there every day.

[Indoctrine]

http://www.supanova.com.au/comics

This was the only thing I could find through Google. Looks like it's a huge expo of lots of things.

[John Travolta]

How do you guys get the money for the plane tickets and the booking for all of these conventions?

Do you honestly make that much money off of this site?

[Matt]

I've been putting a decent chunk aside from what we make each month to finance stuff like this. We also sell merch while we're at the cons. Getting a bunch of merch in bulk is really cheap, so we cover all our expenses pretty easily.

[Gaunt1et]

Please come to Australia! Australia has Supanova, that's about it. But that's pretty massive and is held in Sydney and Brisbane. I would fly just to see you guys :D

[MSB]

I'm considering coming to ROFLcon, but only if I can manage to get the day off from work. Will you all be there?

[Matt]

All of us. I don't think registrations are open anymore, though.

[SuEsq]

What Matt said. As far as C&H involvement, New York is more "real" then San Diego, who continually turns us away.

So does this mean that you guys won't be attending the San Diego convention?

[Matt]

We'll be there, but sharing a booth with Tomorrow's Nobodies again. The plan is to have two of us there at a time. The other two will either be hanging around the booth or doing nerdy comic con things.

[SLjimbolian]

Bummer, would've loved to go (hell, NYC is my backyard) but two of my buds from work already took off that weekend to go to Comic Con, so there's no way I can get off.

[Matt]

Tell them to come by our booth and we'll draw something for you.

[Okayu]

So, by this "we'll draw stuff for you", does this drawing stuff happen to be for free?
Still considering going, since it'll be beautiful weather on Saturday, making it a shame to spend in-doors, but I'm a sucker for free stuff.

[shpadoinkle]

Well I hope to see a lot of photo documentation of you guys during all this. Especially in Mass because I really, really wish me and Chase could've made it out there to hang out with you guys.

YOOOUUU GUUUYS. :rolleyes:

[axania]

Can't wait for the information about the London ones.

Quite excited, lol.

[jakewolf]

you guys were awsome at the comic convention i loved the shirts and free comics. haha i waited 3 hours before you guys got their i wasnt waiting at your stand i walked around. man i love your guys's comics

[sambadabam]

Info plz!

So does this mean that you guys are heading to toronto?! 'Cause that'd be freaking amazing.

[khelp]

I was there today ( Sunday ), im the guy whose hat Kris signed. righteous showing and indeed, cooking meat over a volcano is fuckin' metal

[simplyinsane]

You guys were awesome on Saturday! It made my day. :D

[Rob]

No.

[Mr Anorexia]

No.
Dirty self loathing Texan.

[CharlieH]

You still coming to London, shlags?

[pinky33]

Unless I missed something I don’t see anywhere that you will be at A-kon again this year. I really enjoyed seeing you last year and would love to pick up another shirt. I bought a shirt from you guys last year and you signed it, but I could not bear to wear it knowing I would have to wash it and loose your guys mark. Soooooooooo………

Holy shit, dude.

Thats borderline obsession.

[Raxo]

They're not that good.

[pinky33]

They are to me. The few I have printed out and posted on the wall I can read every day of my life and laugh. Knowing that all i have to do is walk 50 to that wall to get a laugh when ever a I want makes it worth everything.

Not like I paid the store the $200+ they wanted to frame a shirt. Printing all of those and framing the T-shirt cost me 20-25 bucks. Also I can't really put a price on its overall worth, it makes a great conversation topic and looks nice in my college atmosphere house. I had a party 2 days ago and 1 person thought it was awesome since he is also a fan and 2 other guys never heard of them and loved the comics. For some reason women don't like them as much, lol.

[i-take-pixes-of-my-toes]

aww shet you mean i missed the amazing akward talks with you guys?
I live for those creepy moments

[GirlsChoize]
