Thanks to Orca Book Publishers this weekend I will be attending the Toronto Comic Arts Festival signing copies of the newest Graphic Guide Adventure; Food Fight. This is a really exciting opportunity as I will be in the company of some very talented people, as well as meeting Liam, the author, for the very first time in person!
The Toronto Comic Arts Festival is a unique comics event, patterned after comics festivals like Angouleme, Harlem, and the Small Press Expo. It is two full days of comics-related events, including readings, presentations, panel discussions, gallery shows, and a large exhibition area featuring publishers and comic authors and artists. We like to describe it as ‘unconventional’.

The latest Graphic guide adventure, coming out in Spring 2010.
“While Devin and Nadia spend summer vacation at a university camp for little kids—Nadia as a counselor and Devin as an unwilling participant—their mother’s research project is vandalized and her motives are questioned. Devin, Nadia and Simon stumble upon shady characters, corporate conspiracy and a plot to take over the nation’s food supply with genetically modified fertilizer.
Mixing action and suspense with information on the agricultural system and the intricacies of the food supply, Food Fight is another gripping installment in the Graphic Guide Adventure series.”
