To promote the Emerald City (Seattle) Comicon, the show has launched Tales From the Con, an original webcomic by well-known cartoonists Brad Guigar (Evil, Inc.) and Chris Giarrusso. Brad’s writing, Chris is drawing. Here’s the first strip:

The comic will update weekly on Thursday with “humorous look[s] at life in and around a comic convention, not specific to any one show, but celebrating the culture surrounding these meccas of pop culture.” The creators will (of course) appear at the next show, which will be held March 30 – April 1, 2012. The one time I was able to attend, I was impressed — it’s the premier West Coast convention for *comic* fans, those who want a comic-focused show.
