Portland, ME: Signing and Talk at Comics Arts Festival June 2, 2018

 Over 100 cartoonists and writers will be at the Portland Public Library on Saturday, June 2 from 10am to 5pm. The event is free and open to the public all day. Many will be showing and selling their work from tables located throughout the library.

The cartoonists behind the new LOBSTER THERAPY book (myself, John Klossner, David Jacobson and Bill Woodman) will be signing books during the day. We will also have a panel talk beginning at 1:30pm.

We were fortunate to be showcased in an article about MECAF in Sunday's Portland Press Herald. 

Here's the information of the panel for June 2:
