[Asianmedia] Anime con this year?

[Athena Currier]

Hey Asian Media,

Figured this might interest some of you folks as well: the Comics Collective
signers have been talking about organizing a trip down to the Small Press Expo
(SPX) in Bethesda, Maryland this October 4 & 5.  It's basically a big ol'
alternative comics fest.  For more info:

http://www.spxpo.com/  (check out the "Exhibitor" section to see who's coming)

The hope is that Comics Collective could pay for the main travel expenses
(bus(es), hotel room(s)), the way the Arisia trips have worked in the past.  If
you have any interest in this trip, send me an email soon, 'cause we're trying
to figure out how large a group to expect.
