Updated, August 17, 2007: Here's a link to flickr photos from this event. Don't forget that the TCAF Toronto Comic Arts Fest is this weekend! Mostly a free event with loads of talented artists and their work on display...
On August 16 2007, there will be a comic book launch featuring two very different visions of the end days, spanning the political spectrum: Claudia Dávila's spOILed is a Peak Oil parable about a world without petroleum.
Salgood Sam (AKA Max Douglas, son of Arna Selznick) and Jim Munroe's THEREFORE REPENT! is a Post-Rapture graphic novel about a world without God.
The creators will be in attendance, and their original artwork from the comics will be on display. Books, original artwork and silkscreened posters will be on sale.
This event kicks off the Toronto Comic Arts Festival, which culminates in the weekend fair of international artists on the U of T campus.
Thursday, August16, 8pm-10pm. Free at Tequila Bookworm 512 Queen St. West, upstairs. The Bookworm's new location is ten doors west of their old place, and the upstairs features lots of cozy rooms and an outdoor patio to enjoy their local brews.

You can sure tell it's summer. Hope you guys are having a good one and enjoy your convention...
Hey there Clive!
Yeah, summer's here and we've been away from the blog a bit. John is writing scripts like a fiend... I'm starting a new board. In between work and errands we're doing some walking...not enough though!
Nice of you to drop by! Hope yor summer goes well too. How's that big feature project coming along? Bet it looks amazing...
I owe you an email but this reply will have to do for the moment...stay healthy!~Arna
Hi there, Arna and John!
It was really nice to meet you -- I just made the connection now that you are the doodlers AND Max's parents! I wish we'd had more of a chance to chat :-)
Thanks for everything!

Hi Arna,
Just back from vacation in Mother Canada. Dad and siblings in Kitchener Waterloo and only 5 hours in Toronto with most of our time in Muskoka. Been a spring and summer of 'just abouts' so... project that I spoke of that held such great possibilities and potential...(for you too) have faded. More at my blog under "bad blogger" post. Hope you and yours are well. Back on the serious job hunt here subsidized by screenplay and dreams.
Maximum Respect,
David
ps if you have any contact info for Paul Teglas please forward.
Hi Dave! I'll forward your info to Paul T...
G'luck with the hunt. Love the recent board samples you posted by the way...~Arna
Hey Claudia! Love the SpOILed book.
Was good to meet you. We just made the connection that you and Michael Cho are married!! Funny. Now we've all made the connections, hope that the next time we see you we can chat a bit more. :-)
