Off to the Monthly Montreal Comic Jam the other night. But first there was a big event happening across the street. I took some video with my little camera:
Got one of the volunteers in the information booth to explain what was going on. Nice siren in the background, which fits with the name of the festival.
Unfortunately, I held the camera sideways, thinking, I guess, that this was like a still photo you could “rotate” right side up. No such luck, so you’re going to have to turn your monitor on its side, or have a very flexible neck:
Off then to the jam, which was upstairs at a bar called L’Utopik. Nice crowd at the table.
That’s Éric Theriault, centre, Richard Gagnon, right, and I’ll get the name of the guy on the left, I promise. Mathieu Bernier.
Sirkowski, far left, Nicolas Plamondon, centre, and that guy Mathieu again.
Marr, and Jeff Leblanc.
Éric had found, under the bed, or something, a pile of finished cartoons no one had seen for years. I’m hoping that these get published in a book soon, with the rest of the cartoons we do at the jam. Maybe someone can scan them, and put them up for all to enjoy.
I drew a bunch of little things. Wish I’d made a record of them, somehow. Well, still fun to hobnob with one’s fellow cartoonists.
