Free Comic FUN on a Day Like No Other...
Hello Fellow Readers....[and Free Comic Book Day Fans!]
Just a short note to THANK....*HUGS*...everyone who attended the 'Image Collections 2011 Free Comic Book Day Event' on Saturday May the 7th. The day was AMAZING for us to experience, seeing so many people gathering to celebrate the medium of artwork mashed up with words really gets to us [in an almost holistic way]....*sniff*....
You'll be able to experience it again, or possibly for the 1st time if you weren't able to attend [[...due to some overwhelmingly unfortunate last minute occurrence OF COURSE, right?....don't worry, we understand *wink-wink*]] as we will be posting opinions and photos in the coming days & weeks on our website [ http://www.imagecollections.ca ]. Also, check out the presenters websites [listed at bottom] as they too may post PICs & VIDEOS...
From the heightened energy of toddlers anticipation of something special happening, the electricity of successful LOCAL PUBLISHERS mixing with those whom they are inspiring, of parents initially dragged along finding themselves intrigued enough to READ ALONG also, the friendly intensity of creators describing their creations to a welcomed audience, a delightful squeal of a child discovering a dressed up cos[tumed]-player-attendee, the high level of educated storyline banter within the crowds, to many playing out a long tinging quest for discovery by taking their first steps into the worlds of the sequential arts, what an excellent day it was!
LOTS MORE TO COME>>>> check back often to this page for added photos from the event!
