This Saturday, 3 June 2023, Drowned Town Press (that's me) returns for the first time since before the pandemic to Boston Kids' Comics Fest. This year's Fest is at Northeastern University's Curry Student Center. I'll be at Table 21 -- click on the Exhibitors link and scroll down to see the floor layout. This FREE one-day event is open to kids, their parents/guardians, educators and librarians. Show hours are 10 AM -- 5 PM. The workshop schedule is here -- be sure to check out my BCR pal LJ-Baptiste!

There are also a Quiet Drawing Area and a Calmer Space for kids and guardians who need a few minutes to take a breather. And while the usual student food court will be closed, organizers are providing a directory of nearby eating places. The Curry Center is at 360 Huntington Avenue in Boston, MA, not far from the Museum of Fine Arts. MBTA Green Line E Branch stops close by at the Northeastern University stop, and Ruggles Station on the Orange Line is not much further away. MBTA buses #9 and #39 stop on Huntington Avenue, while buses #8, #15, #22, #28, #43, #44, #45, and #47 stop a few blocks away. Routes #19, CT2 and CT3 do not run on weekends. MBTA Commuter Rail lines Franklin (but not Foxboro), Needham, and Providence (but not Stoughton) also stop at Ruggles Station. (Hmm...I only now realized that the cute kitty in the BKCF logo has resonances with another Boston-based comic show that is staffed by some of the same people...MICE!)

It's Cloud Town Tuesday The day I post an image from my graphic novel and talk about the process of making it!Months had gone by as I waited eagerly to hear about the next steps to publishing my first graphic novel. When I got an email asking if I wanted to illustrate a case and end pages for the Cloud Town hardcover there was less than a week before those illustrations needed to be in the hands of the book designer. I said yes before I knew for certain what a "case" was--Googling "case" and "book case" did not help. If you want to see a case, check last Tuesday's post, but for now all you need to know is that the case took a pretty long time for me to draw, which left me with 2 days to design 6 end-pages.  

End-pages are those pretty pages that glue a book into a hardcover case (there's a context clue for you), and for me, they had always been a thing of wonder. They are the wrapping of the book--the closest thing we have to music as we fade in and fade out of a comic. I was delighted to have the chance to design my own, but the time crunch was startling. But as they say, necessity is the mother of invention. This is what I came up with, and I'll tell you more about it next week!

the funniest part of any Robin meeting the JL is that every Robin is so distinctly different from the previous one in terms of personality and vibes that the league literally gets backlash. and like, I don't blame them. not to mention that they are non-meta children that dress as a traffic light and fight crime alongside batman in gotham on a nightly basis. i'd also be a bit concerned. Batman, literally The Night of Gotham personified in the League's eyes, coming into a JL meeting: This is Robin, my crime-fighting partner. 11-year-old Dick Grayson, dressed in the brightest primary colours possible, vaguely hidden murder behind those eyes, never stops moving even for a moment: Hi! Superman: That's a child. That's-- Bats that is a child. You let a child--? Batman, deadpan: You try to stop him. Would you rather he try and murder a grown man with a wire?

Batman: This is Robin. 12-year-old Jason Todd, with the biggest grin on his face, about 3 books in his hand, stars in his eyes and a distinct street-kid drawl: Hey!!! Green Lantern: That's ... that's a different child. What?? Jason: I stole his tires :) Batman: Tried to. Jason, stage whispering to the League: basically did. Green Lantern: that is a different kid, right?? I'm not seeing shit??

Batman: This is Robin. 14-year-old Tim Drake, bo staff clutched in his hand, a wary and tired expression on his face, more on the quiet side, the literal walking definition of don't judge a book by it's cover: hello Flash: Where do you even find these-- Tim: I found myself.

Batman: This is Robin. 17-year-old Stephanie Brown, literally blonde, with a shit-eating grin, eyes full of nothing but mischief and the most explosive personality you've ever seen: hiya!! Superman: I give up. Stephanie: I know, I have that amazing effect on people.

Batman: This is Robin. 13-year-old Damian Wayne, a literal wet cat that will hiss at you, has a sword, the most judgemental stare you'll get from a teenager, ready to jump anyone there: Green Lantern: WHY DOES HE HAVE A SWORD?! Batman: ... he came with the sword.
