The first Lakes Comic Art Festival ran “like a well oiled machine”. Reviews
“One day all comic book shows will be like this”.
Here are some post-festival articles welling with enthusiasm for the weekend, though Dan Smith, writing for Huffington Post, laments the lack of a female “underground legend”. He evidently wasn’t in the packed library audience for the talk by Trina Robbins.

Will Trina write about it in her blog when she’s back home in San Francisco? I hope so!
And the next festival is in preparation! The splendid Julie Tait and her heroic team have already started organising, with the dates set for 17th – 19th October 2014.
