It's on its way!

Well, the Canberra comic meets have had a shaky history and I'm not sure how far back they go but this last lot started a little under a year ago. With the untimely demise of House of Heroes, in Philip where the meets were held, there hadn't been a meet for a while but us comickers can't keep to ourselves all the time so it was off to The Wig and Pen. We started off well but then Ben Hutchings left us for the fair city of Melbourne and attendance dwindled (I'm not trying to put this all on you Ben ;P).
So now with this blog, a poster and some fliers we're hoping to get things kick started again and packed with comic creators, writers, illustrators, and fans.
I've called us The Canberra Comic Collective because, at the last meet, we discussed several possibilities for this blog.
Firstly a review of the meet will be posted with photos of the afternoon and pictures that were drawn on the day. Should we gain enough followers we may hold little illustration or writing competitions.
The Collective is young and we can go anywhere.
