Hi Kids!
Chuck here, from 7000 BC in Albuquerque/Santa Fe, NM, letting you know that we will be doing it again, this time from a new venue, Kaboom Test Labs Comic Shop’s West Side location at 10250 Cottonwood Park Road, Suite E, in beautiful Rio Rancho, New Mexico. You can contact the 7000 BC website at www.7000bc.org for further details and the like.
If you’re in town, come by and see us, and if you’re not in town, check out my thrilling(?) play-by-play (or rather, page-by-page) commentary right here as we bring you all the spectacle and glory that is 24 Hour Comic Day from Albuquerque, New Mexico!
The fun begins at noon, October 5th, till noon, October 6th.
See you then!
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck

24 Hour Comics Day Is Over In Albuquerque
All done in Albuquerque — another great 24 Hours Comic Day in New Mexico has successfully concluded.
Thanks to the 7000 BC members who worked so hard to put this all together; Media Arts Collaborative Charter School for hosting; Winning Coffee Company and Downtown Java Joe’s for their food donations; Astro-Zombies, Comic Warehouse, and the new Kaboom Test Labs for their prize donations.

That’s Chuck, the documenter of the Albuquerque 24 Hour Comics Day event. After the power nap, he’s got plenty of updates at the blog, and pictures of completed comics.
Albuquerque Underway!
24 Hour Comics Day in Albuquerque is well underway at Media Arts Collaborative Charter School, with around 40 participants hard at work on their comics as of about 3 hours ago. Regular updates are posted at Chuck’s liveblog of the event; in a spectacular bit of poor planning we haven’t quite worked out how to share content over here.

24 Hrs in Q-Town: Hours 23 and 24
Hi Kids!
Parents are showing up to collect their kids and things are winding down.
Michael finished “Stray Dog” and Paul has 13 pages in the can. He’s saying it has something with the hard uncomfortable chairs and Jake is backing him up. Michael says that he had to stand up a lot. That helped. Pete has six pages done but he has assured us he’ll finish it onaccounta he likes it.
BIG NEWS! Jeff has finished at 11:59! We are all in awe of his awesomeness in finishing so close to the deadline.
Michael and Jeff looking somewhat ethereal, no?
That’s it! We’re OUTTA HERE!
See youse next year!
Your pal,
Chuck
24 Hrs in Q-Town: Hours 20 through 22
Hours 21 and 22
Now I ask you, does this look like the face of an old man who has been up for 29 hours?
Here we are at hour 21 and Gwen has finished her comic, “Lola”.
The sun is up and shining. The sky is a beautiful blue, not cloud in it and the temperature is a lovely, oh, I don’t know, somewhere around 70, 75. Not that I want to boast or anything, but to those people who, like my friend, Chuck, from Chicago, when he got off the plane in Phoenix, saw all the sand, and said, “Where’s the beach?”, that’s just the way it is almost every day here in the Land of Enchantment. I think the weather is the greatest thing about New Mexico. Unlike Phoenix, which is a blast furnace in the summer, we here in Q-Town enjoy mild, sunny winters and warm summers, the temperature rarely topping the century mark. And, it’s a dry heat so you don’t really even perspire all that much.
And you may wonder why I’m going on and on about all this. Well, the truth is Jake’s camera battery died on us so I’m waiting for it to charge up enough so we can get Gwen’s pic so the poor girl can go home and start the recovery process from this grueling ordeal. She’s being so patient, bless her heart…
The battery has charged enough and we can now bid a fond and grateful farewell to Gwen.
And not only that, but while I was in the bathroom performing my morning ablutions, Stu finished his comic, too.
Here’s Stu with his comic.
And Paul has gone for Starbuck’s (the BAWLS is long gone, but you know, BAWLS is a proud sponsor of 24 Hour Comic Day).
Bless his heart…
A lotta heart blessin’ goin’ on here, but then again, it is Sunday.
Hour 20
Sun’s up and Aliina has finished her comic at 8:26. Here she is with her comic, “Roll”.
24 Hrs in Q-Town: Hour 19 or The Sun Also Rises
And so sunrise comes to Harwood Art Center (boy, do I suck at photography, or what? This one’s blurry, too.)
