24 Hour Comic Book Day

On October 3rd, 2009 Time Tunnel Comics in Mt Lebo hosted the 24 Hour Comic Book Day... which is a geekfest where comic book creators (loosely defined) throw together 24 pages in 24 straight hours.

The marathon started at 3 in the afternoon that Saturday and, I'm told, ended just after Egg McMuffins were scarfed down the next day.

I'm a prima donna, of course, so I strolled in around 11pm and hung out until 5 Sunday morning.

I met some fun artists, ate some pizza, whited-out some pizza smudges, and headed home for sleep.

I finished it throughout the following week... about 22 working hours over the course of 5 days.

To help it come off quickly I used plain, hulkly characters splashed over big action panels with little to no background ("Foggy Battlefield" anyone?).

In any case, it was alot of fun and I'm looking forward to doing it again...
