It’s no secret that from time to time we dip our toes into all things comics ’round these parts. Funny thing is, I never thought I’d find myself sucked into the world of all things drawn, but when you marry someone who damn near has an addiction, you wake one day to discover that you, too, have been sucked in.

My husband knew I’d never be compelled enough to read anything less than a half inch thick – smart man – so my gateway drugs were all graphic novels: David Boring, by Daniel Clowes, Alan Moore’s Watchmen, and Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth, by Chris Ware. Now, thanks to Richard at Zeus Comics in Dallas, I’ve become consumed with a variety of authors and illustrators. As for webcomics, I have two that I visit daily: Scott Kurtz – who I interviewed earlier this year – and his Player vs. Player webcomic and Jeph Jacques’ Questionable Content.

Now word comes this morning, thanks to Jeph Jacques, that both he and Kurtz will be in Austin this weekend at the Dragon’s Lair. The two meet and greets start at noon Dec 12-13th and will also feature webcomic author Danielle Corsetto of Girls With Slingshots – a favorite of Kurtz’s – and others.
