SPACE 2019

Happy 20th Anniversary SPACE!

It was another great year at the Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo in Columbus, Ohio. This is one of the comic expos I enjoy doing because there are no guests, not rush to see panels, and attendees can visit and chat with any creator they wish. I always come away with a huge stack of new comics and zines to read after the show!

We’ll definitely be back for 2020!

Zombio: A Space Adventure

Happy to announce that we are currently in the process of making Zombio: A Space Adventure a trade paperback which will debut at the Small Press and Alternative Comics Expo (SPACE) in Columbus, Ohio this April. The first two episodes of the series; I found a planet and I’m Rich and Malling Through the Solar System came out as mini-comics at last year’s SPACE. Currently I’m working on illustrating the final chapter of the Zombio triology, and it will go to print at the end of March.

Zombio: A Space Adventure is written by my husband, Mike, when he was in elementary school. When unpacking the house after our most recent move, I found the stories tucked away in our keepsake box. Finding them fun and imaginative stories (and an interesting commentary on consumerism) I decided to illustrate them. After 18 months of work, the entire story will be available as a trade paperback.

Cheers,

Redkat

Photos from Anime Ohio 2018!

Hello Everyone!

I want to regale you with my experience at the first ever Anime Ohio convention in Cincinnati, Ohio. A few years ago the Cincinnati/ Northern Kentucky area used to play host to two conventions: Ikasucon and Sugoicon. Ikasucon moved up to Fort Wayne sometime around 2007, so Sugoicon at the Drawbridge Inn in Northern Kentucky was Cincinnati’s premier anime convention- until the Drawbridge Inn closed down a few years ago. It did move to the Crowne Plaza Cincinnati North in 2013, but has been in hiatus since.

From talking to the other attendees of Anime Ohio, they were jazzed that a new anime convention was local to the area again. Anime Ohio is hosted by the Cincinnati Comic Expo, our huge local comic con. So many of the same staff that you see at CCE were present at Anime Ohio.

There were a few panels and five special guests to the show: voice actor Beau Billingslea, voice actress Melissa Fehn, cosplayer Akakioga, cosplayer Paige Cordano, and cosplayer Hailey S. Speaking from a business point of view, by having a limited amount of guests, this made ticket prices and vendor table prices so much more reasonably priced! The only drawback I heard from people in attendance was that there wasn’t enough to do for the nine hours the con was open. By my observations, we had peak attendance between 10AM and 2PM before attendees left for the day. The vendor room ended up closing an hour early, at 6PM, because no attendees were in it and the vendors were left talking amongst themselves. All attendees were watch the cosplay contest taking place a few doors over.

Many of my local artist friends were in attendance at Anime Ohio, plus a lot of cosplayers! I’m sorry that I didn’t get a chance to walk around too often to take photos or video of the con, I was alone working my booth this time around. But here are a few photos from the day:

 

  

Would I consider attending next year’s Anime Ohio as a artist vendor again? Yes I would! I was pleased with how this convention turned out in its first year, and am looking forward to seeing it grow in the years to come!

-Kat
