Here are some fotos from the Small Press Alternative Comics Expo 2011 in Columbus, Ohio, on March 19-20.
(What about "comix"?) I met Bruce Chrislip (City Limits Gazette) and Steve Willis (Morty Dog) in Seattle and McCleary, Washington, in 1988. Dan Taylor is a contributor to The Worker Poet. Maximum Traffic has been printing my pages in The White Bufallo Gazette for years, and even introduced me to my wife. Sean Biery was a fellow artist on Modernman #3, as were Willis and Traffic. I never met Michelangelo Cicerone but he is guilty by association. John Porcellino draws King Cat Comics, and very well indeed. Colin Upton publishes Self-Indulgent Comics from Canada. Blake Werts helped me print Modernman #4 at the convention. I also met old cohort Matt Feazell, who is releasing the first "Cynicalman" movie real soon, old Kinko's co-workerSean Atkins/ http://www.workshop13.net/,
and other oldsters whom I will plug as soon as I get my comic books back.
