Cavna talks to Raina (who will be at SPX)

With her new book, Raina Telgemeier makes a gutsy move. Kids and parents will love it. [in print as Raina Telgemeier knows growing up takes intestinal fortitude].

A few weeks ago Dave Roman and Raina Telgemeier were at One More Page bookstore in Arlington, VA. The two gave a fun presentation on the basics of cartooning faceshttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif, prompted by the children in the audience. Here's some more photographs.

Evan Dorkin's perhaps ashamed to be caught buying a mainstream comic strip book from Richard Thompson.


After talking about the Thomas Boatwright painting of Lamont Cranston I bought, Jim Amash drew this Shadow sketch for me.


Richard Thompson is a fan of Kate Beaton.


Raina Telgemeier and her fine Smile.


And then there's Dazzler.

This set's new additions has local DC cartoonists and my friends for the most part. Many of the shots are by my daughter, and these are from Day 2- Sunday, 9/27/09.


Chris Schweizer. I love his Crogan's Revenge pirate story.


Crack ex-DC journalist Scott Rosenberg.


Steve Conley. Steve was selling original strips from Socks and Barney for an insanely low price so I bought 2. (that's one of Rob Ullman's girls behind him)

Doug "Pop Culture Shock Therapy" Bratton and John "Bo-nanas" Kovaleski. I wasn't familiar with Bratton's work but bought a complete set. I think I've got a full set of John's except for minis.
