Mini-comics pioneer Steve Willis (creator of the longest running comic series of all time, Morty Comix, currently at issue #2370, available only at an abandoned phone booth) organized a great-sounding Mini-Comics Day event in McCleary, WA. Here is Steve’s overview of the event (note: you’ll want to follow his blog, as it is immensely entertaining).

Here is Jim Gill’s report on the event.

Here is Paul Tumey’s account of how things went down.

Here is a video of Steve telling some kids how to make a mini-comic:

You can see all of Steve’s Mini-Comics Day posts here on his blog.
