AWOL artists in Colorado Springs
We’re over 10 hours into our 24-Hour Comics Day event, and some of our artists are missing! Where did they go, you ask?
They’ve decided that some things can only be settled by a foot race! Who says teens don’t have the energy for 24HCD?
24HCDVT down from 12 to 8 folks…Hour 13
Must be the witching hour… It’s getting quiet in here!
Our dear Jim Gorman finished his comic about an hour ago and fit a whole bunch of sci-fi movie hints into his text-gravaganza. Thanks for joining us yet again, Jim!
Two others had to leave due to outside commitments, so we are down to eight participants still slowly plugging away. Highest page count so far is 17, last I checked.

I’ve been blogging away here and on my own, so here’s a link to the few pages I’ve completed so far. (12 is my goal.) sweetenemyart.blogspot.com
Hour 10 at Lone Star Comics
Its now hour 10 and we just had a little break for folks to eat and rest those cramped hands. Some have left due to schedule constraints, but have left their mark for this year while others are still pushing on to complete that next page…
New Orleans Update…
Caesar Meadows – This is the first time I’ve attempted to draw a 24 page comic book in 24 hours even though I’ve known about the challenge for years. So far, it’s proving to be an enjoyable and quite reflective experience. I’m making up the story as I go along and so far it’s about two guys trying to draw a better comic book than the other. I highly recommend the challenge to other comic book artists/cartoonists out there. If you’re interested, there’s more of my work at www.mogihead.com.
Spencer Bradford – Enjoying my first time at 24 Hour Comics Day. My comic is basically about two individuals with different points of views coming together to overcome an evil menace.
Hour 6 at Lone Star Comics
We’re now into hour 6 and our creators are still going strong. There’s plenty of progress seen and a few folks working to keep up with their schedules. We’re seeing lots of diverse art styles this year. Don’t burn out, Creators!
Six Hours in the New Orleans!
We’re rolling in the Big Easy! Seven artists have taken the 24 Hour Comics Day challenge at the Joan Mitchell Center in New Orleans: Jeannie Detweiler, John Slade, Kira Mardikes, Caesar Meadows, Kelly Stiles, Spencer Bradford, and Bottletree.
