MIX WEEKEND!
HERE WE GO, DUDES.
TONIGHT: It’s the big Kick Off Extravaganza! Starting at Big Brain Comics, from 6:00-8:00, come celebrate the release of Aaron Renier’s The Unsinkable Walker Bean, Zak Sally’s Sammy the Mouse #3, and Will Dinski’s Fingerprints. THEN, walk a mere half mile to the 501 Club, where the Mix Kick-Off party will be going strong from 8:00 till midnight (with live bands!). This is where you need to go:

And TOMORROW??? You are all going to be at the Soap Factory from 9:00-5:00 for donuts, comics, and, well, just read the damn program. Also, take a look at this seating chart so you’ll know where to find yours truly:
PS There are only three days left to email the name of your favorite female cartoonist(s) to the Lulu Awards. Any possibilities for maybe, I dunno, Most Talented Newcomer jumping to mind? No?
Aw, hell. ENJOY YER INDIE XPO! I’m sure gonna.

I can’t believe it didn’t end in a hangover today–it totally should have! Guess the comics gods are really with us on this one. Am now very sad the bestest August for MN cartoonists ever is at a close.

Dad: Yeah, so many great local institutions! (And some not-so-local ones.) See, all the cool kids love indie comics.
Danno: I too am really mourning the end of this comics-filled August! How can the other months possibly compare?? 24 Hour Comics Day better be REALLY good. Also that camping trip…
