The programming for this year’s MoCCA festival has been announced, including the panel that I’ll be appearing on with Alex Robinson.

Sunday June 8, 12:10 – 1:10 PM
Alex Robinson and Mike Dawson in conversation
Alex Robinson is the author of Tricked, Alex Robinson’s Lower Regions, Too Cool to be Forgotten, and Box Office Poison. The French translation of Box Office Poison received the Prix Du Premier Album prize at Angoulême International Comics Festival in 2005. Mike Dawson is the author of Freddie and Me: A Coming-of-Age (Bohemian) Rhapsody (Bloomsbury). He received the Ignatz Award in 2002. Alex Robinson and Mike Dawson are members of the notorious Ink Panthers comics collective.


One correction that I feel I must make: I didn’t win the Ignatz in 2002 (for “Promising New Talent”), I was just nominated. Greg Cook won that year. The other nominees were myself, Rick Smith, Sammy Harkham, Jeffrey Brown, and Anders Nilsen. Quite a talented group of cartoonists to be lumped in with, I must say.

Anyway, come and hear me and Alex converse!
