Ryu Maru spent the weekend at the Midwest Comic Book Association‘s SpringCon!  For those of you who don’t know it is the largest comic book convention in Minnesota, held each year at the State Fairgrounds Grandstand, running both Saturday and Sunday from 10AM – 5PM.

We were there promoting Jon Sloan’s new trade paperback, which collects the complete “volume one” of his comic series “Sa-Bom Jim” in a book over 400 pages thick.  We were also making people aware of the great Ryuzine Press Editions of his (currently being posted online) “volume three” material, and the Ryuzine family of webapps in general.  We were also in good company there “under the stairs” with some of the many “conspirators” of the International Cartoonist Conspiracy.

Thanks to some good local press beforehand (and possibly the rainy weather during) there was a pretty good turn-out for this year’s SpringCon.  Thank you to the MCBA, volunteers, and everyone in attendance who made it a positive experience!
