ALTERNATIVE PRESS EXPO 2007
Oh, yeah, the time is upon us again. A.P.E. is coming up this weekend, on Saturday, April 21st and Sunday, April 22nd at the Concourse Exhibition Center at 620 7th St. in lovely San Francisco. It’ll be the usual raucous collection of independent creative types…
This is my favorite show of the year, and an amazing display of the vitality of the indy comic/mini-comic/zine scene. Each year the show gets better and better, and it’s been wonderful watching the convention evolve and mature in the 7 or so years I’ve been coming to it. It’s honestly the most inspiring weekend of the year for me, creatively.
I’ll be tabling during the convention of course, sharing a table with Steve MacIsaac and, on Saturday only, Dave Davenport. We’ll be in the gay ghetto overseen by daddy Tim Fish. Come by and say howdy, at table 344 on the ground floor. The new books I'll be showcasing that I've done since last year's APE are Hard To Swallow #2 and the Swallowing a Cobra and Other True Travel Tales mini-comic.
QUEER CARTOONISTS PANEL
I’ll also be moderating the Queer Cartoonists Panel for the fourth year now, on Sunday, April 22nd from 4:45-5:45pm in the APE conference area. Please come by! It’s a pretty stellar line-up of LGBT creators... Here's the APE program blurb for it:
For the fourth installment of this annual, popular panel, yet another gaggle of LGBT cartoonists gather to gab irreverently about weighty issues. Should artists be socially responsible? What's happening in the world of queer cartooning? And just how gay are comics anyway?
Abby Denson (Tough Love)
Robert Kirby (Boy Trouble, Curbside)
Andy Hartzell (Monday, Fox Bunny Funny)
Brad Rader (Harry and Dickless Tom)
Leia Weathington (Bold Riley)
Moderated by Justin Hall (True Travel Tales, Hard To Swallow)
