As you all know, we attended the first ever Latino Comics Expo this weekend right here in San Francisco at the Cartoon Art Museum, and we had a blast!
The first day it was just Mario and myself manning our makeshift table at the front along with our friend Ed who is working on his own graphic novel because Cristian wasn't able to get the day off. I manned the booth most of the day while Mario networked and attended panels. I did get to attend the "History of Latino Comics" panel, which was really interesting since I am both a history major and a fan of comics.
Sunday was a blast though, we had a table in the main room and the whole team was there promoting and networking like crazy.

Cristian and Mario got some great publicity and signed quiet a few posters, including someone's guitar!
They also participated in a panel about self-publishing comic books along with some other comic book artists, Jaime Crespo, Rafael Navarro, and Javier Hernadez. 
The panel was about an hour long and went really well, hopefully we can get the video up and running soon.
Hooray for Reluctant Zero's first panel!
We all had a wonderful time socializing and meeting other Latino artists and spreading the word about Reluctant Zero to an audience which doesn't often get as much notoriety as it should. We can't wait for the next Latino Comics Expo!
