24 Hour Comic 2008 – Santa Fe, NM

24 Hour Comic 2008 – Santa Fe, NM

I created this comic book in 23 hours with the help of my girlfriend (she inked the pages) for 24 Hour Comic 2008.

This was the first year I participated in the 24 Comic Book Day. The goal was to create a full 24-page comic book in 24 consecutive hours. It was organized by 7000 BC and True Believers our local comic shop. There were over 20 artists who drew their own comics. We all met at Warehouse 21. A great community center for youth and the arts here in Santa Fe. There was even a small exhibition showcasing the comics we created.

I had a blast doing this and will definitely take part again this year. I can’t wait!

24 Hour Comic 2008

This years 24 hour comic was great! I was able to create a 24-page comic in 23 hours. With the help of my wonderful girlfriend Consuelo. The best inker around! It was organized by 7000 BC and True Believers the local comic shop here in Santa Fe, NM. After 23 hours we created a fully inked comic book titled “Aliens and Heroes”. This was truly a great test of creativity. There was a great turnout here in Santa Fe. Over 25 fellow comic artists. I met a lot of cool people. After producing 24 pages in as many hours I feel a higher sense of confidence in my comic-creating ability.

Here’s a link covering 24-Hour Comic here in Santa Fe. I’m even mentioned in one. http://24hcd.blogspot.com/2008/10/santa-fe-just-about-wrapped-up.html
