A2CAF Comic Anthology!

Free Comic Book Day is always one of the best days of the year, but this year it’s even better! If you visit Green Brain Comics or The Vault of Midnight (at their Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, or new Detroit locations), you’ll be able to get the first ever Ann Arbor Comic Arts Festival Anthology featuring exclusive original comics made by past and future A2CAF guests! Oh, and it’s free!

The comic is published by the Ann Arbor District Library’s Fifth Avenue Press and features stories by Carolyn Nowak (Lumberjanes), Zack Giallongo (Broxo, Star Wars Doodles), Gregg Schigiel (Pix: One Weirdest Weekend), and Ruth McNally Barshaw (Ellie McDoodle). The anthology also features two father/daughter teams. Ben Hatke (Zita the Spacegirl) draws a life-or-death story of owls and mice with his daughter Angelica. Rafael Rosado (Dragons Beware!) teams up with his daughter Amelia to illustrate a tale of the never-ending struggle between pet and owner. You can see the full list of contributors below.

Quantities are limited, so show up early to get your copy!

If you miss out or can’t make it to the stores this weekend, don’t worry! We’ll have a supply of these comics at the welcome table at A2CAF June 18 & 19! But once they’re gone, they’re gone!
