Simon Moreton is a boy in a man costume who makes comics and zines.
It’s official. I’m going to Toronto Comic Arts Festival! I’ve got sufficient things lined up that it looks like I can just about afford it. I’m incredibly excited. I’m even eagerly working away at Smoo #5 to see if I can’t get that finished in time…
Anyway, as well as selling my own comics at TCAF, Ian Williams and I will be running a panel discussing the relationship between comics and depictions of mental health. We’ll also be teaching a class along the same lines in the Department of Biomedical Communication, and I’ll be giving a paper to the Department of Geography at the University of Toronto drawn from my PhD (which hasn’t got anything to do with comics, but there we go). More information on these events nearer the time.
I’m still soliciting for donations to help cover table/travel/accommodation costs, in exchange for comics, hand-written letters and drawings. However, if you fancy more bang for your buck, you can always check out my shop to see if there’s any comics you might like to purchase, including the newly published Smoo #4.
See you in Toronto!
Notes:
have been going for 3 years now...it is always fantastic.
