Women of Comics Symposium

Women of Comics is a sub-programming feature of the upcoming Toronto Comicon. The Women of Comics Symposium held on Saturday, April 29th, 2006, will feature top female writers, artists and editors from the comic book and syndicated cartoon worlds. The line-up of guests is great, including Jessica Abel, Fiona Smyth, Becky Cloonan, Jill Thompson, and my friends Sandra Bell-Lundy and Rina Piccolo. It looks to be a great part of a great event, so do check it out, if you’re planning on attending the show. (womenofcomics.com)

    Great to see that the other gender has a great influence in the comic field. Hopefully more will join in the boy’s club.

    I love Fiona Smyth! Have you ever singularily Drawnblogged her? Me and especially my daughter were fans even before we moved to Canada. Her work is just fanntastic.

    I’m a Fiona fan too! I really miss her stuff in Exclaim!, because she was in almost every issue at one point.

    Curses! Life is so unfair! The line up of talent in the Women of Comics Symposium is just incredible! Why did they make Kansas City so far from Toronto?? Maybe if I started walking now, I could get there by April 29th! It
    would be worth it to see Sandra Bell-Lundy!
