May 10: The ANS Sci-Fi & Comic Con Returns! press release
The ANS Sci-Fi & Comic Con Returns with
The Independent Fan Film Festival!
The ANS Sci-Fi & Comic Con returns to Archbishop Neale School in La Plata, Maryland on May 10, 2014 with a brand new event - The Independent Fan Film Festival - featuring five amazing fan-produced films and the headlining film, "Dear Mr. Watterson, An Exploration of Calvin and Hobbes".
The ANS Sci-Fi & Comic Con is a fundraiser and awareness-raiser for Archbishop Neale School, a Catholic School in operation in La Plata for over 85 years. The event is organized, promoted and run by a small staff of committed volunteers and every penny raised goes directly to the school. The popular event features over 50 vendors and artists selling original art, old and new comics, trading cards, collectibles, toys and other pop culture ephemera. Over 75 vendor tables sold out in less than 24 hours when they were made available in January prompting organizers to open hallways in the school to accommodate more dealers.
Earlier in April, the Independent Fan Film Festival was announced along with the Spotlight Feature Film, "Dear Mr. Watterson". This Kickstarter-funded film examines the impact of the ever-popular comic strip, "Calvin and Hobbes" and its' enigmatic creator, Bill Watterson. Directed by Joel Allen Schroeder, "Dear Mr. Watterson" has won numerous awards at film festivals nation-wide.
"We were really lucky that "Dear Mr. Watterson" was made by such a generous guy like Joel", says convention organizer Tom Boone. "He understood that this is our first film festival and a charity event, too. Joel graciously gave us permission to screen this wonderful film that I think matches our audience perfectly. It's great for young, aspiring artists as well as fans of comics and great art."
In addition to the indie film fest favorite "Watterson", five other fan-produced films have been announced as part of the Independent Fan Film Festival. "All of these films were made by fans, and can exist within the film franchises they represent because they happen just outside of the films we've already seen", says Boone. The Italian "Dark Resurrection" takes place several hundred years after "Star Wars - Return of the Jedi" and "The Hunt for Gollum" follows the adventures of the J.R.R. Tolkien-created character Strider, who was not seen in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. Similarly, the Harry Potter-related film "The Greater Good" features a story of Young Dumbledore mentioned in one of J.K. Rowlings' books and "Judge Minty" is based on a character from the "Judge Dredd" comics. A parody of the A-Team, "The Safe Team", rounds out the selection of films. Attendees can vote for their favorite films and the winning director will receive a "Best Film" trophy made by Virginia -based glass artist Patti North.
Organizers encourage attendees to plan for a full day at the ANS Sci-Fi & Comic Con. An Art Contest for Kids will be featured as well as a costume contest for all ages. There will be a Silent Auction featuring autographed items and collectibles and door prizes will be awarded hourly. Costumed members of the 501st and Rebel Legions will be on hand to play a Star Wars Angry Birds game with kids. Plus Viking re-enactors from the Longship Company will be returning with their historic Nordic artifacts and food will be available, too.
The ANS Sci-Fi & Comic Con and the Independent Fan Film Festival run concurrently on May 10, 2014 from 10-3pm at Archbishop Neale School, 104 Port Tobacco Road, La Plata, Maryland. Admission is $5 for adults and free for children 10 and under. For more information, visit www.anscomiccon.com

Herblock award photographs online
Local photo gadfly Bruce Guthrie has put his pictures of last night's Herblock Award talks by Jen Sorensen and Bob Woodward online. Both talks were excellent. Jen's had multiple highpoints, and Woodward's went through the history of Watergate via Herblock cartoons. I look forward to both being posted online.
More photos from Bruce should follow when he gets the time to upload them.

A Shared Universe: The Art of Comic Books exhibit at Strathmore
A Shared Universe: The Art of Comic Books
April 12, 2014 - June 8, 2014
April 12, 2014 - June 8, 2014
Exhibition Hours
Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday - 10AM-4PM
Wednesday - 10AM-9PM
Closed Monday
It's an American invention and a 20th century institution, yet the comic book encompasses the arc of humanity that runs from prehistoric cave paintings to the graphic novels of the future. Arnold Blumberg, former curator at Geppi's Entertainment Museum, calls the comic book "not just a reflection of our culture—it is our culture." A culture experienced on so many levels, whether it's colored by memories of hiding under the covers with a flashlight and a comic book after bedtime or catching up with digital favorites online. Ever since Superman kicked off the superhero comic genre in 1938, the medium's influence has spread throughout the arts, influencing fine and performing arts as well as pop culture and becoming part of the fabric of human dreams. This exhibit gathers all the elements of the art form, from original pencil drawing and hand inking to graphic design and digital manipulation, and beyond into the new incursions of what comic artist and theorist Scott McCloud calls "the infinite canvas" of web-based comics, games and graphic novels. Step into the world of wonder that's reflected in the comic genre; share it with someone you love. It's just as you remember, and so much more than you can imagine.
Please join us for the following programs, presented in conjunction with the exhibit:

Shelton Drum's original comic art exhibit in Southern VA
"Heroes Aren't Hard to Find: The Comic Art Collection of Shelton Drum" exhibit at the William King Museum, Abingdon, VA, is absolutely fantastic, especially for someone around age 50-60. Shelton bought the art that we all would have, especially Spider-Man pages. Here's a set of pictures I snapped quickly, which don't do the art justice.
Why mention this on ComicsDC? Because local hero Richard Thompson is represented with two Cul de Sac strips.

Eric's Awesome Con Pics, a guest post
My name is Eric and I have been shooting amateur photography for over six years off and on. I normally shoot up in Columbia Height, DC is a private studio (really really small). I completely agree with the the creator of Awesome Con that the DC area has been under served by comic book conventions so in my own little way I hope this support the hometown convention.
I am hoping to make contact with the various convention cosplay attendees so that I can email back their image(s). I snapped approximately 1200 images at the convention and now I am editing it down to one image per cosplayer to post to DeviantArt and Flickr. If you are a cosplayer that would like their respective image emailed to them (or really anything else people would like to communicate about such as Photoshop talk or setting up a shoot) then the best way to contact me is through my email (EricPhotoNow@Yahoo.com).
Below were Friday's Cosplayers (better quality images are at my DeviantArt site).
