MSU Comics Forum 2011

For a few years now I've helped to organize the Michigan State University Comics Forum.  It's a two-day event that features a keynote speaker Friday night, and then panel discussions and an artist's alley (where comic book artist show off their work, do sketches, talk with fans, etc.) on Saturday. 

We've had a great run of participants, including several Eisner Award winners (think comic books Oscar).  I'll be giving a presentation on Saturday.  Everything is free and open to the public.  The artist alley is going to have a great mix of independent and mainstream artists.

This year's event is next weekend.  Here's the promotional poster by Ryan Claytor:

I would for sure love to come, if the artist had depicted, more, or any, people wearing sunglasses, flip flops and shorts. I'm a fair weather comic forum attendee....

The MSU Comics Forum: Not an event for weather wussies

What do you think of that for our new tag-line, Joe? ;)

P.S. Thanks for the linkage.
