TCAF crowd And I was at  TCAF  (Toronto Comics Arts Festival) to see friends and meet people in person. I think it was funny that so many I knew were either not going or just popping by and ended staying for the better part of the day. It was great being able to walk around and see it buzzing with people interested in the comic art scene of the city. Such a diverse and amazing crowd! Moi and Mark Foo at the Hogtown Horror Comics Table I ended up signing at the  Hogtown Horror  table, which was great. Got to meet fans in person and the team who I only knew virtually. Thanks to Mark Foo, Nelson De Rocha and Malcom Derikx for being rad! Can't wait to see the next volume of horror come together! If you haven't picked up a copy, head to your local comic shop and ask for one. I got my kids signed copies of the  Olympians  series by George O'Conner. He also sketched in them, which they both are very happy about. It was so weird, but I met a ton of ...

I'm a little late in sharing the news that Hogtown Horror , a horror anthology full of gruesome tales by very talented Canadian comic creators was fully funded on Kickstarter a little while back.

Comics Alliance's  Keiren Shiach wrote a great article about Toronto Comics Anthology Vol. 3 that you can read by clicking here ! Here's an excerpt: "The  Toronto Comics Anthology  has been the jumping off point for scores of great new local talent for a couple of years now, and for many of the creators it gives them the first opportunity to have comics work printed and published for the world to see.
