This honor became even more evident as I walked the show floor on Saturday. The ceremony was Friday night, and while we lost out to Mouse Guard, the three of us still walked away feeling extremely honored by the nomination and the chance to attend the gala with some of the industry’s finest.
Take a look at Matt’s blog for more pics of the show and his personal rundown.īut our main reason for attending Comic-Con was an Eisner Award nomination for Trickster in the anthology category. Of course, another big highlight was walking the show floor and seeing an endless, chaotic parade of crazy costumes and talking to creators, fans, and publishers. One was a signing at an event across the street from Comic-Con called, coincidentally, TR!CKSTER. Matt and Trickster contributing artist Andrew Cohen both made the trip out to San Diego for several reasons. Aside from witnessing the spectacle and the cosplay of the show (it’s like Vegas meets Halloween meets Saturday morning cartoons meets BEA on crack), I was there to support Fulcrum author Matt Dembicki, editor of Trickster: Native American Tales. Last weekend I had the privilege of being Fulcrum’s first-ever representative at San Diego Comic-Con International 2011. As an independent book publisher in the West with mostly nonfiction titles, there’s never been a reason for us to go to Comic-Con International.
