Hours 2, 3, 4 and 5 from New Mexico
Hi Kids!
Back from picking up Jake, my son, and the official photographer for 7000 B.C. 24 HCD.
On the way back we stopped by his Mom’s store, Loveland Farms, New Mexico’s only drive through convenience store http://www.lovelandfarmsstores.com/. She donated a whole buncha stuff, and not just chips, either. Lunch meat and cheese and two loaves of bread, and all sorts of confections for our vigil. Thanks, Melissa!
Thanks also to Starbucks on the corner of Broadway and Lomas for their kind donation of sugar and sweeteners for our coffee and teas…
As promised, I have pictures:
Here’s Jeff, with the countdown for hour one…
That’s me in my blogging corner in the back of the room.
More pics to come!

New Orleans 24 Hour Comics Day!
Our pre-24HCD event was a big success with local youth!
Over 20 youth participated in a morning of comic fun, from 10am to 2pm, at Whole Foods Market in Arabella Station. Cartoonist Eli Ivory gave free drawing lessons, comic books and other prizes to the young artists. Thanks to everyone who participated.
Here are a few photos of the artwork that was produced.
Artists’ Mediums of Vermont checking in…
Kristin here again. We’re seven hours into the scribbling. A few have had to leave, but there’s still a strong core group plugging away.
I wanted to take a minute to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to one of our food sponsors, for I just came back on shift to find everyone happily fed by the folks over at the Vermont Sandwich Company here in Williston (802) 878-6963‎. VT Sandwich donated two platters of fantastic sandwiches, Wow! Thank you!
If anyone’s interested, I can heartily recommend the Crop Duster wrap.
Caffeine is sure to be the next step, so we’ll be cracking into our Bawls caffeine drinks soon.
Thanks also to Holbein for donating a huge stack of Maxon goodies for participants to use. The comic pattern sheets (wax transfer) are really wild, and it’ll be cool to see what they create with them. 340+ patterns!!!??!!! Too tempting.
Anna from Norway is starting in 5 minutes!

Hour 1 from New Mexico
Hi Kids!
3 – 2 – 1! And they’re off! Everywhere there is furious scribbling as our 24 HCD officially kicks off.
Fortified by bagels, cream cheese, and coffee from Winnings Coffee Co. http://www.winningcoffeeco.com/ and housed at the Harwood Art Center http://harwoodartcenter.org/ss/ we who are http://www.baaadasssscomics.com/ are all set for another fabulous 24 Hour Comic Day.
I’m Chuck and I’ll be here with the play-by-play, or rather page-by-page color commentary–okay, I’ll be letting you know what’s going on as often as I can. I’m shooting for once an hour, but life somehow gets in the way and–well you know how it is…
We have 26 folks starting this afternoon and I’ll be sending pics and other tidings as we go along…
Good luck to all the New Mexico contestants!

Vermont is one-and-a-half hours in!
Took these pictures around 11:30 EST, and you could hear a pin drop in there.
Everyone is so quiet!
In the foreground is one of our veterans. And a few last minute sign-ups have filled out our group nicely…
Another veteran on the lower-left there, plus a mother-daughter team (mom draws, daughter is doing the script.)
After 20 hours…
After 20 hours there are still 12 enthusiastic drawers working in Rovaniemi library.
The day is bright and sunny and the athmosphere – as many times said – warm.
Library has opened the doors and many of the visitors have stopped to admire
drawings. Drawers seem to be even more concentrated on their work than 10 hours ago.
Right now there are about 10 ready 24-pages work.
Local newspaper just came to interwiew participants – great! And one person from
Kemi Comic Centre came to sell comics and pins. (Kemi is our neigbour about 100 kilometer from Rovaniemi city).
What more can I say – it’s awesome to be part of this happening : )
