24 Hour Comics

Saturday, October 7th is 24 Hour Comics Day. The challenge is to write and draw a 24 page comic book in the span of 24 hours. It's the invention of Scott McCloud.

I just finished reading Scott's making comics and it's excellent and inspiring. Highly highly recommended for comic makers, comic readers or anyone interested in storytelling through visual means. The section on depiction of facial emotion is worth the price of admission alone.

With luck, Saturday should bring the first 24 page Apple Sauce Brain Man story into the world, which will probably triple the number of ASBM pages in the entire universe. Wish me luck!
