Everyone loves comics, right? Maybe you get your fix through a daily newspaper strip. Or maybe your tastes run to the more highbrow art comics from Europe. However you choose to look at them, comics offer a different, and often a fun way to look at life and art.
Well for anyone who has ever loved (or still loves) comics, it may come as a surprise to learn that Toronto is home to some of the best known comics artists in North America. We have an active and vibrant community putting out some of the highest quality comics to be found anywhere. The SpeakEasy Comics Show features an eclectic mix of Toronto's talented comics artists - from those who do newspaper strips and political cartoons, to underground comix and mainstream superhero comic books! The event promises to display an exciting cross-section of the comics community here in Toronto, as well as a glimpse into how good comics are made. As the old cliché goes, there really will be something for everyone.
