Whew. Busy, busy, busy these next couple of months. Take a look at our agenda for our updated conventions schedule.
Alright! Two things I really want to talk about is CCP Comics will start their own broadcast channel via UStream and our plans for Free Comic Book Day.
Our broadcast (as I'll call it until we can decide on a name for our broadcast) will be accessed through the downloads section of our site and will occasionally feature a special guest! Of course, announcements for our broadcast times and topics will show up on the main page of our site. But what if you can't join us for the live broadcast? Don't worry! We'll record it for you!
Now Free Comic Book Day. For the uninitiated, participating comic stores give away specially marked Free Comic Book Day comics which include previews to upcoming titles or storylines, whole first issues, half issues and more from mainstream publishers and independents! Austin Books and Comics will host their Free Comic Book Day with CCP Comics as their guests! Most of your favorite CCP artists will be there hard at work with free sketches for the fans (a schedule will be posted closer to Free Comic Book Day on May 7th). CCP creators are expected to appear in other comic shops around Austin which will also be announced as schedules and locations are confirmed.
In two weeks, CCP Comics will rock the faces off the people of Louisiana at Bayou Con in Lake Charles. Rumor has it, our EIC McLain is going to get us a very special guest for our first broadcast that weekend. Have I said too much!?
Speaking of saying too much, it looks like I'll be posting on the blog every weekend from now on. I hope you guys enjoy my prattle! stay tuned next week! Or sooner perhaps....
