Comic Cave anniversary & trick or treat!

Comic Cave PDX 1924 N Kilpatrick St, Portland, OR, United States

4 years ago in St. Johns we held our soft opening during the neighborhood business trick-or-treat! Met a bunch of great folks who braved the rain, signed up some subscribers, gave out free Halloween mini-comics to the kiddoes. Now it's time to do it again! I've timed it to coincide with the Kenton Business Trick-or-Treat event up & down Denver from 5-7. Free comics for the kiddoes and I'll probably have my usual grownup snacks & drinks as well :)

We'll work with a few examples of work using Lidia's exquisite revision techniques for bringing things back to life. Not only is Halloween on a Saturday this year, but there will be a full moon, AND it's a blue moon! Let's convene and conjure while treating our own selves to an evening of community and writing and costumes and candy (BYOC).
