Whoops: Toronto Comicon
:: Posted by Bryan @ 4/17/2007 12:02:00 AM 
Well, this past weekend saw two large-ish comic book conventions in Canada and Sequential totally ignored one of them. Hobbystar's Toronto Comicon, otherwise known as the Fan Appreciation Show, was held April 13-15 and had a compact guest list of U.S. comics creators, including the great Carmine Infantino. Last year, Hobbystar's marketing tactics had enough people upset that an internet campaign was started, but I haven't heard anything recently.
Some reports from the show:
-Jeff Lemire has a great Carmine Infantino anecdote and discovers the work of Chris Kuzma
-Galaxion's Tara Tallan prefers dancing to attempting to sell comics in Artists' Alley
-the women love Carmine and take great photos (which I then steal, I hope it's okay)
-the ever-reliable Danny Truong posts a nice little report
-one fan's shopping listLabels: events, Ontario, Toronto
