Woot! Lest we forget it is ;24 Hour Comics  day tomorrow! We like how the comic book calendar has evolved into a year long series of feasts and festivals, from the Beltane-like Free Comic Book Day, to summer’s San Diego Festivus, and now the fall sleepless celebration, which, like Hallow’een, will have you seeing impossible things after 24 hours of  writing and drawing comics. We like Scott McCloud’s tip, which we’re paraphrasing, "Get someone to drive you home at the end.

At any rate, please check the 24 Hour Comics Day blog for updates and goings on. There are 93 different locations in 17 different countries. Four events are already underway with 57 cartoonists participating.

This is neat.
