Thanks from Montpelier, Vt.!


I was way too tired (and my laptop battery way too low) to do a final post when we finished up at 10am this morning at Montpelier City Hall. Our event this year was a huge success, with more than 20 people taking attempts at 24-Hour Comics, about half finishing successfully and many, many amazing comics drawn.

Above is a page from Ed Epstein’s gorgeous and moving 24-Hour Comic story.

We also had a great media coverage for the event, including this story in the Times Argus and Rutland Herald newspapers. And tomorrow morning – at the crazy time of 6:20am – I’m being interviewed live in the studio at WCAX about the 24-Hour Comic challenge!

We had so much fun. Thanks to everyone who made this event a success. See you next year!

Eight hours to go!

There’s about a dozen of us left drawing comics at Montpelier City Hall with eight hours and ten minutes left in the challenge. It’s still a quiet, studious bunch, but I’m sure everyone will loosen up when the wackiness of the 3-5am stretch hits. Anyway, I’m halfway through my comic and listening to Joy Division on my iPhone. Whatever keeps you going!
