The next Minneapolis meeting of the Cartoonist Conspiracy is at the Spyhouse Thursday May 5th… Cinco De Mayo. The Minneapolis Cell of The International Cartoonist Conspiracy usually meets at 6:30pm on the first Thursday of each month at the Spyhouse, unless otherwise noted on the website. In addition, we meet the third Sunday of every month at Grumpy’s (May 15th this month).

Generally we meet, draw jam comics, drink caffeinated beverages, and socialize. Once we’re happy with the jam comics, we usually either go home or go get non-caffeinated beverages somewhere.

We’re going to do one 12 page extended jam on a random topic and whatever miscellaneous jams people want to work on this meeting. If you want to suggest a topic to possibly be drawn out of our bag of topics, you can post it here.

The last two months of jams have just been posted here and here. The Beatnik Brigade/Modern Day Voodoo/Comic Found on the Bus strip from March turned out really well, I think.

I’m planning on bringing at least one of the boxes of 24 hour comics we made for 24 Hour Comics Day to the meeting… if you want to buy one they are ten bucks. It is a limited edition of 100 boxes, each box contains 17 comics drawn in 24 hours on April 23-24 2005, and it will never be reprinted. Let me know if you want one in advance so I can bring it for you.

The meeting is at:
