This Sunday (May 18, 2014), Dandelion Studios will be appearing at our last show, at least for the foreseeable future.
As mentioned here before, I’ve taken a teaching job in Ho Chi Minh
City, Vietnam, and we’re excitedly looking forward to new adventures on
the other side of the planet.
We’re going to be moving all of our Dandelion Studios comics
publishing activities online, and we are expecting to be off the
convention circuit for at least two years. Of course, anything is
possible, so you may see us show up at an anime con somewhere in Asia,
or at a show back in the USA if we end up coming home for our summers.
But we are treating this coming weekend as our farewell show. The event is MECAF, the Maine Comics Arts Festival in Portland ME, and it’s consistently been one of our favorite shows.
It features exclusively small press/independent talent, and adult
admission is a mere $5. If you are anywhere near Portland this weekend,
and you are at all geekily-inclined, this is the best deal for your
money, barring none.
Guests of honor are Kazu Kibuishi of Amulet, Vol. 1: The Stonekeeper, Zach Giallongo of Ewoks: Shadow Over Endor, and the creator of one of my favorite recent comic series, Jimmy Gownley of Amelia Rules! Volume 1: The Whole World’s Crazy.
So, come to Portland this Sunday and stop by the Dandelion Studios
table to check out all of our comic titles, plus a full selection of
plushie giant spiders and (not technically giant) narwhals.
Hope to see you there!
