24 Hour Comics Day
7 October 2006

We had a very successful 24 Hour Comics Day at Lambiek in 2006. With 24 local comic artists participating, the event was a lot of fun and inspiration.

Each artist completed a 24-page comic within 24 hours, and many of the artists uploaded their pages (with some assistance) to their websites. The weekend was filled with drawing, great food, lots of coffee, comaraderie and creativity. Many people came by to share in the fun during a special marathon weekend of comic drawing. (also in dutch/nederlands)
