Independents Day III is the celebration of the comic book industry’s independent creative spirit! So be sure to come by and show your support of some of the best talent in the field.
"We started Independents Day three years ago with four great creators," said store-owner, John Munn, "We expanded it to five last year, and are hoping for even more for this year! We created this event to celebrate the artists and writers who are working outside of the established realm of well known characters, like Spider-Man and Batman, in order to forge original content based on their own work or seldom used characters. This is a very special event that is close to our hearts as we are the oldest independent comic shop in Tacoma . . . and we are going to be celebrating our store's Sixth Anniversary on the same weekend!"
More guests to be announced soon!
Comic Book Ink is located at 1625 East 72nd & Portland Ave., Suite 800, Tacoma, WA 98404. For more information, please contact John Munn at (253) 761-4641.
And a special treat for all you Scott Allie fans --
October 25th, 8:00pm at the Portland Center for the Performing Arts, Winningstad Theater, Super Project Lab presents “Meet Your Comic” featuring Scott Allie!
Our 6-week run of improvisational theater at the Portland Center for the Performing Arts collides truth with fiction when special guests from the Portland community share true, unrehearsed recollections from their lives. Their stories serve as inspirational fodder for each evening’s session of compelling scenes, created on the fly by SPL.
Be sure to check out this one-night-only special event!
Plus, Allie will appear on The Famous Mysterious Actor Show with Todd Herman at Berbati’s in Portland on Halloween night!
