It looked a little rocky there for a while, but, Comic Arts Brooklyn is back at the Mt. Carmel Gymnasium, 12 Havemeyer St. in Williamsburg tomorrow. In past years this was a somewhat bigger blowout, but the stripped down art shows/comics mart/animation program schedule sounds just fine, and from the looks of things, there will be plenty of great books from great cartoonists on sale. The event is organized by Gabe Fowler of Desert Island Comics in Williamsburg.
Featured guests include:
DOUG ALLEN
RICK ALTERGOTT
ARIEL BORDEAUX
CHARLES BURNS
DAME DARCY
DREW FRIEDMAN
GARY LEIB
R. SIKORYAK
MATTHEW THURBER
TODD JAMES / REAS
ADRIAN TOMINE
