24 Hour Comics Day followup

Posted by Josh on October 31, 2008

24 Hour Comics Day 2008 was a huge success. We had a record turnout of 16 participants and most stayed the entire 24 hours. Thanks to everyone who came and made the event so much fun.

I also want to take a moment to thank our sponsors! Thanks to the Columbia Art League for letting us use their classroom space and thanks to Nick-N-Willy’s Pizza for the cheap food. 24 Hour Comics Day wouldn’t have been possible without their support.

As a follow-up, I’ve linked to all the publicity, comics and photos I could find from the event. I’ve also included Vimeo and YouTube links to some video interviews. I wish I could have gotten everyone interviewed, but I wanted to draw some comics myself! If you’ve got something to add, let me know and I’ll include it too.

The comics:

• And More » Kirstin Steitz
• Runner » Dainty Rhino
• Trapped » Scott Ziolko
• Bad Guy High pages » Dan
• Superbeast » Koko
• The Dragon’s Horde » John Fortman
• Stuck in an Elevator » Keith Chan
• Untitled space story » Josh Nichols
• Imaginary Food » JB Winter
• Bob Average and the Hobo Stone » Noah Medling

Thanks to everyone who made 24 Hour Comics Day a success. Thanks goes out to Quinlan Keep for hosing the event. We appreciate it! We had a great time and a lot of awesome work was created. We’ll link to some of the comics once they have been scanned. Until then, you can check out some photos of the event in the slide show below.
