The Ladies of Comicazi, an inclusive community devoted to consuming, critiquing, and creating comics and pop culture, are teaming up with their homebase, Comicazi, to bring the second annual LadiesCon to the Armory in Somerville on September 16, 2017.
The free one-day show will present writers, artists, creators and artisans specializing in comics, fantasy, and science fiction, with a particular emphasis on creators who identify as women, LGBTQ, and people of color, as well as local artists. Attendees will have the chance to meet creators, buy books and crafts, and see panels on a variety of topics, including gaming, fanfiction, and cosplay.
Guests include Gwenda Bond, author of the Lois Lane series of novels from Switchplate Press, Ming Doyle of The Kitchen, Mara and Girl over Paris, Kristen Gudsnuk, creator of Henchgirl, Mildred Louis of the webcomic Agents of the Realm, Joe Quinones of America and Howard the Duck, and award-winning artist Raul Gonzalez of Lowriders in Space.
The show will run from 12-5 on Saturday, September 16. For more information, visit www.ladiescon.com.
