Read Comics in Public on 8/28/2010!

Show your love of the sequential art medium on Saturday, August 28, 2010 and READ COMICS IN PUBLIC!

Read Comics in Public Day was an event organized on a whim by Brian Heater and Sarah Morean of The Daily Cross Hatch, a blog dedicated to independent, small press, self published, and minicomics (a blog you really should be reading). It’s a chance to publicly show your love of sequential art in all forms by letting your ink flag fly in the open.

If you’re unsure how to Read Comics in Public, two instructional posters are available - one for stores and one for libraries.

So grab some comics (floppies, bound collections, original graphic novels, minicomics, newspaper strip collections), stake out a prime public location (park, coffee shop, bar), and settle in for an hour or two, and proudly display your choice of reading material.
