A quick note to friends going to Salt Lake Comic Con: I'll be on a panel about defending free speech and the comics medium. The panel will be 3 p.m. Saturday in room 150D.
My research for the panel included asking many of you if you had questions on the topic. The most common response was "Does censorship occur in comics?" My answer: Yes, constantly. It's been a little better since the Comics Code Authority died, but there are still people at every level of comic book production with their own ideas of what the First Amendment does and doesn't cover.
If you're looking for other spots to put on your list, visit Death Ray Comics at booth 805 and Rattle Can Heroes at booth 2803.
