The first annual Asian American Comicon is happening in New York this weekend at The Museum of Chinese in America: 215 Centre Street, NY, NY.  It’s all day from 10am to 5pm.  If you’re a comic book geek, then this is your super bowl.

*************

As artists, editors, writers and fans, Asian Americans have been a key creative force behind the graphical storytelling movement.

That’s why some of the industry’s leading Asian American creators have collaborated to organize this celebration of the unique contemporary role and historical legacy of Asians in the world of comics and cartoon art.

The event will bring together top artists, writers, fans and readers of mainstream and alternative graphic fiction with the larger Asian American community for a one-of-a-kind gathering, incorporating education, dialogue, spontaneous creativity, intergenerational outreach and the chance for established and emerging talent to show off their work.
