Fun event at Fantom where a different crowd of webcomics fans came out. Snailords got their Ringo nominee pin from Baltimore Comic-Con at the event. The new book is Freaking Romance and the store still has signed copies.

It's 7/22, the opposite of PI, but nevertheless, audience's favorite zine gets a pie!  What a deal!

On Thursday July 27th, we're back at Fantom comicscollaborating with @creativesclubdc to hold a Zine Jamboree! Join us from 6 to 9 pm for all things zines. We'll have a zine collection show & tell, a showcase for zines you've made, & we'll bring some supplies for making some new zines!

Thanks to @cdinhart and @creativesclubdc for the cute poster art 

Best,

DCZine Fest

Ronald Wimberly interviewed by Julian Lytle at Fantom Comics (photos)

 Here's Fantom's video.  That cut out a little before the end of the interview. Here's clip 1 and clip 2 concluding the interview.

We're hosting artist and writer Ronald Wimberly (Now Let Me Fly, LAAB Magazine, Prince of Cats) here at the shop in conversation with local creator Julian Lytle! It's been a couple years since they've been in the store last to come on by for their return! They'll be chatting about art practice in general, Ronald's new book NOW LET ME FLY: A PORTRAIT OF EUGENE BULLARD—and maybe even that upcoming GratNin physical edition from beehivebooks? Stop on by to listen to the discussion!

Here's my pictures:
