Holy Cow! MIX, the Minneapolis Indy Expo, is this weekend (November 5-6)! There are going to be a zillion great cartoonists there, and the programming looks wonderful. Hard to believe an event like this could be free to the public, but it is, you lucky dog. Enormous kudos and gratitude to the brilliant and fashionable Sarah Morean on putting this amazing event together. If you miss it, I assure you that you will regret it until your dying day.

Too much fun in Minneapolis this weekend!
Swing by the Rain Taxi Book Fest this Saturday at 2:30 pm to hear the great Ben Katchor speak about his life and career (presumably — I’m not sure exactly what he’ll talk about, but I’m sure it will be awesome).
Click for all the pertinent details:
…and show up a little early, because I’ll be on a panel from 12:30-1:30, and then will be signing copies of Little Dickens at the Nodin Press table from 2-3pm.
See you there!
Yesterday, I heard for the first time about a pretty amazing-sounding event happening in Iowa City, Iowa October 5th-8th that I suspect some of you may be interested in attending (note Minneapolis folks that Iowa City is a 5 hour drive). The University of Iowa is putting on a three day symposium on comics called Comics, Creativity, and Culture: International and Interdisciplinary Perspectives. Comics luminaries on the guest list include Gilbert Hernandez, Jamie Hernandez, Pheobe Glockner, Joe Sacco, Craig Yoe, John Porcellino, Jessica Abel, James Sturm, Gary Groth and Peggy Burns, as well as a number of comics scholars and historians.
You can see the schedule for the symposium here.
There are other comics-related events happening in Iowa city before and after the symposium.
