This year’s Portland event is at the Backspace, and as usual l will be there, though this year I’m somewhat wussing out- instead of drawing a 24 Hour Comic I’ll spend the time catching up on inking pages from my perspective book. It used to annoy me mightily when other artists would work on not-24 projects at 24 Hour Comic events at my house- it felt like they weren’t bringing their A game- but what goes around comes around.
Tho Portland Mercury has a piece about the upcoming event by staff writer Matt Stangel in this week’s paper. As the current record holder, with eleven 24 Comics under my belt, l am quoted extensively, dispensing trenchant advice like “Don’t drink beer”. The Mercury has also posted a page from one of my 24 Comics, Bingo The Cat, on their blog.
