... the 2nd Annual Kids
Comic-Con will return to the campus of Bronx Community College in New York City, Saturday, March 29,2008 featuring a day of comics events designed for young readers. The Comic-Con's founder, Alex Simmons, announced that next year the show will launch the Kids Comic-Con Comics Awards to honor the best comics for kids and their creators; and he also announced that the New York ComiCon will become a sponsor. The KCC will focus on bringing young people, comics professionals, parents, librarians, and teachers together to have fun with comics, but also to learn more about educational potential of the comics medium. Simmons stressed that there will be "no gore, extreme violence, nudity, or vulgarity. Just tons of funs." Bronx Community College is located at University Ave @ 181 street. **excerpted from UVC Mag#5* |

Are you into comics????
Try checking out the Vertigo series of comics from DC comics. John Constantine, Swamp Thing, Doom Patrol,Preacher, Sandman and others. They're nothing like the comics of the old days,, Vertigo are much better. |

...hello & wh'sup yvonne - -
...PREACHER(ennis/dillon) was extroadinary and deserves a movie... i'm currently also reading ennis' THE BOYS... you've probably read david lapham's STRAY BULLETS...? or his current work, YOUNG LIARS - which looks to be very interesting. All of the foregoing, yvonne, are not of the usual superhero fanfare, but, like PREACHER, feature offbeat characters reacting in perverse situations...

Hi Asphalt,, I'm sorry but I never heard of Stray Bullets,, I'll have to ask around if some of my more "learned" comic book friends read this. Another two great comics are "Shade the Changing Man" And "The Invisibles" by Morrison,, I love the character "Lord Fanny" in the Invisibles, lol
Ya got me interested in comics again, I got to dust off some of my graphic novels and re-read them. |

Ha, lol,, I just re-read your original post and I now realize that Vertigo comics wouldn't be appropreite for young readers.
