Syndicated cartoonists to be judges at community comic symposium
Sally Forth writer Francesco Marciuliano and On a Claire Day creators Carla Ventresca and Henry Beckett will be one of six comic professionals that will be judging this year’s Lakeland Community College’s annual Comics Contest. The annual comics symposium is usually held in the spring, but this year it is a more of a series exploring the graphic novel. Harvey Pekar is one of this year’s special guests. Harvey will be in Ohio on March 12.
The contest deadline for entry is March 12th.

So, if Ces, Carla and Henry are one of the six judges, that would be 18 judges all together, right?
I’m used to having to do a little math to post comments, but this is getting to be more of a challenge …
