Webcomics Weekend

[Rob]

Kris and I will be attending the first ever Webcomics Weekend (http://www.webcomicsweekend.com/), being put together by some of our friends in the "industry".

It'll be us and a bunch of other webcomic creators hanging out and talking about what we do. Very low key, and absolutely free. Come by if you're interested in what we do and wanna learn more about it.

Check out the guest list (http://www.webcomicsweekend.com/?action=page&url=official-guest-list) for this thing, it'll seriously make you do things to yourself.

If you're going, please RSVP on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=51084271737). Go ahead and reply to this too, if there's enough C&H presence there we can put together a meet-up or something.

Come to think of it, that would be pretty cool, colaborative art.

[vacuumbrand]

Come to Toronto...Its better than Calgary. (if you don't know where Toronto is then try and locate Canada on a map. If u can't find Canada then find the USA. If u can't do any of the above, then you are a hopeless American!!!)

THATS RIGHT.. IT IS PINK!
If you can't find your nuts with both hands, then you're a typical Canadian. Rob, I know you're from the Dallas area. Anything of that sort ever happen here?

[LeonVanMil]

I live in New Zealand half the world doesn't even know where we are on the map. >.>

[tinkco86]

Um... Maybe something in Australia this year? Like a giant comic con in NSW! That'd be pretty sick :) Cause I can't go to these things if they're literally an ocean away :(

[Rob]

Everyone who's asking us to come to your city, what you SHOULD be doing is looking up cons and letting us know about them. We're still pretty new to the convention circuit, so if you can find something in your area that is decent sized one of us will probably go.

[bobthebonker]

come to australia please

[bobthebonker]

[Powerslideking]

Um... you should try clicking on the little links.

The first-ever Webcomics Weekend will take place in New England's Pioneer Valley in western Massachusetts. Our default "home base" is at the Eastworks building in Easthampton, MA.

Also, I don't think you guys would last in South Africa. We have too many baddies.

[Tombo]

LETS SEE ONE IN ENGLAND EH?

[spaceball]

Man. I read quite a few of those artists' comics DAILY. And of COURSE it's the same weekend as SXSW. Otherwise I'd totally make the trek from Dallas. It'd be completey worth it!

[EmmaLoo]

It's on my 25th Birthday! :0

[Mr Anorexia]

I'm going, this is only a 4 hour drive or even faster train ride. All I have to do is convince some of my nerdier friends to go with me.

[Mizu]

I wish I could go, but I'm in Chicago, and the weather is not nice enough for an impromptu motorcycle ride cross country.
You guys really should come here. We've got amazing food, and I know there's going to be a comic con in August.....

http://www.wizardworld.com/home-ch.html

[somebody]

Sweet that is need me. Now all I have to do is get a ride there. I could hijack a car/boat/plane I guess.

[Azzurus]

Woot! Finally an event with awesome people in it that isn't in California.

[Ender795]

Once I found out how close to home this is I had to register for an account here. I can't wait for March and to think it's a free event! Sweet sounds like a good time!

:cheer:

http://mypage.uniserve.ca/~lswong/Comicon.html looks kind of sketchy but you could see if it works if you're in the area.

[getsketchy]

I'll definately try to make this one, it's only an hour away, maybe try to get some friends to go with me.

[pimpernickle]

Well, I live in England, which is 12+ hours airplane flight away from any of those places, so if you think you lot have it bad...

Ah... Australia.
The best thing happening here at the moment is soundwave... and I get to travel 4 hrs for it! Finally something that isn't on the other side of the world though..

[Iddan]

Can you guys come to Tokyo?

I'm sure there's a Japanese version of comicon somewhere...

[Kashew]

Looks like a driveable distance from where I live in NY. I'll prolly go if there's nothing else going on. Seems like fun.

[Claireissocoollike]

Well I'm sorry I'm going to have to beat that. I just moved to Australia. From Scotland. I get many confused faces..so I have to say it's above England <sigh> Then they think we're ruled by England secretly.

Okay back to the forum thingy :) You guys should totally come to Australia just because it would make lot's of people happy m'thinks :D

And for your information I don't like being called a newbie pffffft I'm so much better than that. :clap:

[xCRASHxTESTxDUMMIEx]

Nah, Not Aussie, New Zealand is definatly the place to come, especially Dunedin.

All the nerdy Uni guys would be all over it!!

[RessXalcor]

MegaCon! It takes place in Orlando, FL

You should come down to dallas they usally have something there for webcomics i think at least once a year
or you could go to shreveport louisiana i know that they certaintly have something there its a more than a fairly large city.

[Urser]

You should come. On me.

[Mr Anorexia]

http://mypage.uniserve.ca/~lswong/Comicon.html looks kind of sketchy but you could see if it works if you're in the area.
i would not like to attend a con who's page has a layout as bad as that

[tinkco86]

STAPLE! The independent media expo.

March 7, 2009 in Austin (Closest one to Houston that I know of.)

"An event to promote independent creative media: comics, art, animation, and self-published literature. Building a community to encourage communication between creators and their audience. All the while having a damn good time in the Live Music Capital of the world - Austin, Texas."

This is two weekends before the comic con in New England!

Keep Austin Weird - Keep Houston Ugly

[BreakTheWalls]

Will you be selling T-shirts and merchandise there btw?

I don't sell anything. :indiff: c wot i did thar?

As for the Englanders, I think the crew was at London one time. It would be cool if you came there again.

[mizery]

I live in Michigan.
Yeah, thats right.
Michigan.
Nothing here.
At all.
Except for bad weather and racist white people.
Its like the world wants me to live deprived of comics and light-hearted animations.

Obviously, you've never been in Denmark.

[Buggy]

Awww man. I'm not in that state- or any where near it. <3

[Buggy]

Awww man. I'm not in that state- or any where near it. </3

[Nuclearromance]

Come to texas, or do you know any comic conventions that are going on down here?


You guys should totally have a Cyanide and Happiness Truck and just travel around xD

[Succi]

Can't you come to good old Germany? I'd get the beer and some nice chicks (including me XD). Then we could talk about where you can have your webcomic weekend ;)

Well, I'm gonna take you up on that offer! :p
The raptus festival will be held in Bergen, Norway this year the 11-13 september. The link to the event can be found at http://www.raptus.no/.
And seeing that Bergen earlier this year was listed as one of the most expencive places to rent a hotell, you could probably stay in my basement :p
This year they will be visited by the creators of comics like Mickey mouse, Lucky Luke, Spunchebob (and batman) and conan. So for this meet to become complete i think you guys would have to come aswell. :D

[Mr Anorexia]

You should come. On me.
i'd take on this offer before it expires

[Kashew]

Obviously, you've never been in Denmark.

"Well, where we come from it's pretty cold too, ya? We like hockey and nobody really pays any attention to us."
"Nobody knows where Denmark is."
"Right. So when you think about it, we're the Canadians of Europe."

[GothDetectives]

Come to NZ ;)

[Enhea]

Supanova is in most Australian states (especially Brisbane...hint hint). Its a geek fest. anything from anime to scifi. You should come to that. We got the HULK last year (like the real hulk not the new ones) so its gotta be good.

[Mr Anorexia]

Maine Comics Arts Festival is on May 17
Dunno if it's limited to a certain kind of comics or what

[TheIdiotBox]

Well, there's gonna be a pretty huge Comic-Con happening here in Puerto Rico (That's in the Caribbean, just in case) from May 2 to 3. I'm hoping you can at least look into it, not many people I consider interesting visit here.

Here's two links you can check out for more information:

[spit57fire]

I hear that, so stop your complaining all you complainers. Boo hoo that you can travel across land to get to all the major events of pop culture. Costs us billions to just fly there.

Yes yes, I'll cry about it

[BKS]

OH MY FUCK THATS NEAR ME!
