May 1st – May 31st, 2025
Welcome to the inaugural Nib and Ink Fest! We have a ton of incredible events planned for the month of May, ranging from panels on how to improve your comics craft to portfolio reviews! All streamed events are digitally broadcast live via Zoom. The Zoom rooms are moderated and free to join for EVERYONE, so hop on in to watch and interact with the panelists and your fellow viewers! If you’re unable to join via Zoom, we also have stream mirrors set up on our YouTube.
Instead of registering for events, each event’s Zoom link will open up to the public a few minutes before start time, so be sure to check each event on its date to attend!
Three creators talk about their experiences with transitioning their experimental fancomics into original work. Spicyyeti will be telling you why every artist should just start publishing their comics on their own websites, and going through his process for more experimental webcomics between both fan (Jade Route, Y12k) and original (Godhead) projects. Max Banshees will be focusing on zines and cyanotypes, discussing the challenges and influences of collaborating with other fanartists across country lines. Alexis Rippen will be talking up self publishing and self education: the world is at your fingertips and you can write and print and distribute whatever you want.
*This talk will be pre-recorded ahead of the airing time, but panelists will be answering questions in Zoom chat.
