Comic Art

I attended the Sequential Art Symposium in Toronto this past Saturday. It was held prior to the 2008 Joe Shuster Awards in Toronto. It sounded like an exciting event that would have a large community of Canadian creators, in theory at least. I was there for three hours and there were eight local artists and one from elsewhere in Canada; during my time there I saw about twenty attendees. It was poorly advertised and while they had a nice poster I only heard about it through some artist contacts: Michael Cho and Ramon Perez.

One happy note from the Shuster Awards: my local comic shop Big B Comics won retailer of the year. Congratulations guys!
