As I pack for an undoubtedly fun weekend in Chicago for C2E2, have some belated photos from Emerald City Comicon:

It’s the Blank Label Comics booth!

C2E2 in Chicago this weekend!

Posted In: Blog

I’m going back to C2E2 for its second year this coming weekend (March 18-20), and I’m bringing some pals.  You can find me sharing a table with Danielle Corsetto (Girls with Slingshots), Randy Milholland (Something Positive), and Joel Watson (Hijinks Ensue).  It looks like we’re in booth 862, which is a corner booth in the back of the hall facing Artists Alley and the Webcomics Pavilion.

You can still buy tickets to C2e2 online, but only for the next two days (plus eight hours as of this writing).

Come see me at Emerald City Comicon!

Man, I am freaking out!  I’ve never been the Pacific Northwest before, but come Thursday, I’m hopping a plane. Hopefully my books will be there when I arrive, and not half of a blender?  *cross fingers*

Please, Washington Staters, do not hurt me!  I am but a humble cartoonist.

I’ll be exhibiting this weekend with Blank Label Comics (duh) at booth 210.  I will have things with me!  You can have them.  But, you know, for money.

Argh how did convention season happen so sooooon.

(Pssst, you can see me ustreaming tomorrow’s comic over on the BLC hub.)

Hey, it’s a convention banner!

by David M Willis on February 17, 2011 at 10:18 am
Posted In: Blog

This is how you know you know shit is just about to get real!  My new convention display banner for Dumbing of Age arrived by FedEx today, because convention season is… imminent.  Frighteningly imminent.  Oh my god oh my god.

Anyway, there’s a new DoA banner because I previously didn’t have one!  And I figgered, hey, well, maybe I should probably definitely.  I’ll bring this and last year’s Shortpacked! banner, the one that interlocked with the older banners, but from now on it’ll just be that banner and this one.  …or until I make a new SP! banner, anyway.  I had planned to do a new one along with this new DoA banner, but I couldn’t get a good composition, so I shelved it for a while.

If you want a better look at the DoA banner art, I have it up on my DeviantArt account.  You can also find my brainstorming doodles for it, as well.

…man, I should put a Convention Appearances box somewhere on this site like I do back over on Shortpacked!, shouldn’t I?  Regardless, I make my first appearance of the year faaaaaaaar over on the west cost at Emerald City Comic-Con.  That’s from March 4-6.  See you there!

The plantation burning reminds me of when the residential school burnt down in Shubenacadie. I was very young. Not understanding why we were all there watching a scary looking building burning. Cars lined up all over both sides of the road. It seemed like the entire rez population (1)
