This is a group for aspiring comic creators to have an opportunity to network, collaborate, synergize and hang out with like minded individuals. If your an artist, writer or other welcome aboard. I started this meetup because comic books/graphic novels have had a resurgence in popularity recently with the movie, t.v. and video game adaptations. The technology of the last five to ten years has made it possible for the independent creators to go forward on their own via web comics with greater acc …

Do you find yourself looking up Wikipedia articles for entertainment instead of as a quick way to shut down an interminable argument between two people?

It’s the end of another grueling day at work. You’ve finally gotten out and in your hand, you grip your tell-tale bag holding the latest adventures of Peter Parker side by side with the Last Son of Krypton as he soars the skies above Metropolis while The Dark Knight Detective searching the streets of Gotham, all striving to rid the world of crime and injustice. So what do you do know? Go home? No, you don’t want to go home just yet. You’re thirsty and in need of good friends to talk to. Come and …
