Need a Halloween comics fix, but can’t bear to wait until October 31st? Never fear, several ghoulish members of the Boston Comics Roundtable will be signing comics and drawing monsters at Harrison’s Comics and Collectibles on Saturday October 1st from 12-4 PM at 252 Essex Street in Salem MA. Come check out the BCR comics anthologies Inbound, Outbound and Hellbound, and scream in terror as they are disfigured (i.e., signed) by the likes of:
Did you come to MICE 2011 and don’t want the party to stop? Come join us at 7:30pm, tonight or any Thursday of the year, in the Nelson Mandela room of the Democracy Center (map) in Harvard Square. It’s like MICE all year long!
If you’d like to get involved in a project right away, you can help plan for the upcoming Hellbound Party on Friday, October 28th at Tommy Doyle’s in Harvard Square. Come by an hour early tonight at 6:30pm to speak to Roho and sign up!
For all the intellectuals in the house, take a gander at the International Comic Arts Forum 2011 Conference Schedule, taking place now through Sunday, October 2nd at the Center for Cartoon Studies in White River Junction, VT. While you’re there, camp out with cartoonists also on Saturday, October 1st, at City Hall in Montpelier, VT for its 24-hour Comic Challenge hosted by our friends, the Trees & Hills Comics Group. Sleep? Who needs sleep when you have comics!
And if you prefer something more local, this coming weekend is the BCR signing at Harrison’s Comics on Saturday, October 1st. Come meet us there and get into the Halloween spirit in Salem, MA!
Either way, please come on by. We’d love to meet you!
