Morty Comix # 2415, the final one in the Watercolor Series, was left inside a storage box under Donna Barr's display table at the Clallam Bay Comicon.

Clallam Bay Comicon 2012

Filmmakers Ron Austin and Louise Amandes suggested we get together for the First Annual Clallam Bay Comicon. If you look on a Washington State map, you'll see Clallam Bay is way the Hell from anything, almost in the corner of the lower 48. It's a four hour drive from McCleary.

I met Ron and Louise for breakfast in the town of Forks. Ron suggested we take a hike down to the beach at La Push. Believe it or not I had never been there.

During the 3 mile round trip hike all three of us heard something growl just a few feet away. Bear, raccoon, cougar? You can bet we didn't stick around to check it out. We made to the beach and back in one piece.

One of the most beautiful beaches in Washington. I was so appreciative to have been invited to visit it.

Eventually we made it to the Clallam Bay Comicon, which basically consisted of a couple covered booths set up in Donna Barr's front yard. Ron is recording Donna for the documentary he is working on.

Not the largest comic gathering I've been to, but at least I can say I attended the first one. Having just hosted McCleary's Mini-Comics Day last May, I can appreciate how much work this was for Donna.
