CAPE Takes Dallas

Posted: 05/05/2008

For the third year in a row, the city of Dallas proclaimed the first weekend in May "Free Comic Book Day" in honor of CAPE, the comic and pop-culture expo. CAPE 4 (www.capeday.com) took place on Saturday May 3rd at Craddock Park from 10am-6pm in the heart of Dallas. This festival of comic and comic art included more than 80 comic book writers and artists for a free afternoon in the park. With several thousand attendees and over seven thousand free comics, CAPE has grown to be the world's largest Free Comic Book Day event.

This year's list of CAPE guest comic book artists and writers included the new additions Daniel Way, (Wolverine Origins and Ghost Rider) and Andy Kuhn (Firebreather and Marvel Team-Up). They join industry giants Mark Waid, Chynna Clugston, Robert Kirkman, Greg Pak, Jason Pearson, Gail Simone and David Mack.

CAPE 4 was hosted by Popsyndicate, PVPonline and Zeus Comics. The event was also supported by sponsors The Art Institute of Dallas, Martini Lab, Liquid Logixx, Christon Company, Courtyard Marriot, the Marvel Zombie Society APA and Korn, Bowdich and Diaz. AiD had a great table set up at the event!
