Get ready to Thor-oughly enjoy Mississauga Comic Expo on November 19

Grab your capes and join us on Sunday, November 19, because Mississauga Comic Expo is back again this year! Hosted by Mississauga Library, this free, all-ages event celebrates the diverse culture of comics, gaming, art and more. Events will include an artist alley, exhibitors, workshops, panels, cosplay shoots, tabletop board game demos, video game free-play sessions, presentations and featured guests. Don’t forget to come dressed and ready to show off your costume for a chance to win a prize!

• Join a Character Design class with Mazie Lovie, an illustrator and cartoonist from London, Ontario. Her debut graphic novel memoir, The Lucky Poor, will be released in March.
• Learn the ins and outs of running your very own comic anthology or fanzine with Jey Pawlik. Discover the best ways to keep all your art, artists and pages organized and get your book out into the world.
