Meet Todd at the Digicon this weekend! (sorta)

I’m taking part in the first ever online comic convention THIS WEEKEND called “The Digicon”! I just found out about it yesterday and signed up almost immediately. Many webcomic and other artists are involved with this and we’ll all be live on their site at various times during the weekend.

I will be online there between 12pm-3pm EST and 6pm-10pm EST on Saturday, Sept 10th. On Sunday, Sept 11th, I will be there from 12pm – 6pm EST.

You’ll be able to see live video chat, panel discussions, regular text/voice chat, buy merchandise and watch artists work on their art live on camera! I, however, have no idea what I’ll be doing with this other than being there. I have a lot of technical issues I have to work out as far as the chat stuff and -maybe- the video feed. Drop by and say hi!

Here’s more info on it….

WHAT IS THE DIGICON?
DigiCon is the first dedicated virtual comic con featuring web and print comic creators, writers and artists. DigiCon brings the Con to you with live video chat, panels, commissions, free sketches and a comics mega store with prints, shirts, books, original art, back issues and more!
How did DigiCon start?

HOW DID THE DIGICON START?
DigiCon is the brain child of Ryan Fisher of Gin and Comics and Casey Curtis. We couldn’t make it to San Diego Comic Con this year and neither could a lot of you. We started to realize that there were creators and fans who would never get to attend a con because of where they lived and honestly, that sucks. We’re lucky enough to live in Seattle, home to Emerald City Comic Con, a mecca of geekery and we want others to be able to experience (at least in a small way) the fun of attending Comic Con; meeting creators, sitting in on panels, buying merch. And that’s the experience we’re striving to provide here.

September 10-11th, 2011 marks our first full-scale Con and we’re stoked to see where it takes us. We hope you’ll be there!
