Take Mom to a Convention?

Posted by Luke Arnott May 10, 2009

Yes, today's the day when we honor Mom – after all, if it weren't for Moms throwing out crappy comic books without asking us, the market for rare comics wouldn't be nearly as big! (But seriously, Happy Mother's Day!)

On a mostly unrelated note, check out my new write-up of the Centre Belge de la Bande Dessinée. Even Mom might like it. It's posted in the Comics Conventions section for two reasons: first, though it's not an ideal fit, it seems more appropriate than our other categories; and second, that section is looking pretty thin, and until we can get some reorganization going on the sub-categories, I thought I should do my best to get Conventions fleshed out a bit.

I also had an idea about doing a piece on fandom/conventions as satirized in comics and related media which I might get around to soon. And if any of you have any ideas, don't be shy...
