The Small Press Expo

OK, LET’S DO THIS.

And let’s talk some numbers…

We’ve got a whirlwind week ahead of us as we prep to receive all your smiling faces at SPX 2012. All of our work over the last year is coming together to produce the two best days of independent comics that you can find anywhere…

And here’s the thing, everybody… I have thrown my own personal marker down that I believe we can top 5,000 people at SPX this year.

Now, some context.

That is a HUGE number. Enormous. Practically double last year’s show. Totally, completely pie-in-the sky unrealistic, even with the great growth the show has seen over the last couple of years….

Getting 5,000 people to the show means completely blowing the doors off of our most aggressive expectations. Well I should say, sensible expectations.

But I am not about being sensible.

I am about you helping us fully and completely obliterate last year’s record turn-out. We can do it. And every single dollar will go to charity.

But there is only one way this happens… We need your help.

We can hit this crazy insane goal if you make sure everyone you know that loves comics is coming to the Small Press Expo.

Invite your friends, mention us on your blog, or maybe even share a few copies of Theo Ellsworth’s awesome flyer.

The beautiful thing about SPX is that it is not our show, it is YOUR show. And you guys are hereby deputized to spread the gospel.

I’ll see you and 4,999 of your friends September 15th-16th at SPX!
