24 Hour Comics<\/a> is an international event where cartoonists draw one page an hour for 24 straight hours. It’s grueling, but sounds like a lot of fun! Last year I suddenly thought about doing it a week after the official day so I was bummed. This year I was all over it. The local comics group, Midmococo<\/a> (that’s mid-moe-koh-koh). They always seemed like a cool bunch of people but I’ve never been to a meeting on account of me being a loner. Their mailing list announced that their next meeting was going to discuss the upcoming 24 Hour Comics Day, so it was a good excuse for me to finally show up. I was a little worried because at their last meeting they had a comic jam<\/a>, where each participant would draw a panel in an impromptu comic. <\/p>\n

I showed up and everybody was very nice. A student reporter from the university was there with a videocamera to document the meeting for her project. I sometimes glanced unconsciously at the camera like I was on The Office<\/span> or something. <\/p>\n

At the end of the meeting, we had almost “forgot” (I remembered but didn’t say anything, heh) about the comic jam, but it was brought up as a great visual for the journalism student to record. I was a bit nervous drawing on demand but I had fun with my section. You can see the jam<\/a> at midmococo.com. My panel is the 4th one. I was really hungry when I was thinking of what to do.<\/p>\n

24 Hour Comics Day is October 20th. Stop by with food and drinks! Especially the 2-6AM shift lol.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
