SPACE 2011 Report, pt. 5






Bruce Chrislip is totally at home in this convention environment. I can't think of anyone in our Newaver generation of comix artists who has remained so consistently as enthusiastic about comic art over the span of time as Bruce.

He created several prints to sell at our table, including some old jam material of ours. Bruce also published an 8-page minicomic called Free Space just for SPACE 2011.

There were also a couple formboard displays with selected self-portraits from the Outside In series he originally put together back when he lived in Seattle. That's when I remember seeing them initially.

If you hang around Bruce and Joan for long be prepared to laugh a lot.

In this photo Bruce is gearing up for what will be one of the crowning performances in his comic career later the same day. And I was there to see it, and you will read about it when I reach that point in my report.

  1. Here's a picture of Bruce modeling the Cynicalman helmet while Colin Upton and I look on aghast.
