Creative Women Mini-Con

Normally Creative Women Mini-Con takes place in the Fall, but with the FCBD date change, we're planning to flip-flop these two events. Like last year, we'll be taking CWMC online. So, all you creative women, get ready!

We’re now accepting applications, so please apply today.

For a look at last year’s live-broadcast event, take a look at the video below.


Free Comic Book Day

It's official: the Free Comic Book Day organization has moved 2021’s FCBD celebration to August 14.

This year marks 20 years of FCBD celebrations around the world, so it’s a not-to-be-missed (or skipped!) event. Last year, being caught off guard—as, it seems, we all were—we did not participate in FCBD.

We will participate, however, in 2021. it remains to be seen how this year will shape up. Will it be online or in-person? We just don’t know for sure yet or how the actual event will play out.

Still, we eagerly anticipate this year's event, and as the year continues to unfold we will bring you more news on that front.


Hot Sauce Mini-Con

Hot Sauce Mini-Con will take place July 10, 2021.

What does an online hot sauce min-con really look like? Once we figure that out, we'll let you know.

If you have an idea you think we should explore, let us know and we'll run it through our research and development department (wink, wink).
