Welcome to Southern capital of comic book professionals
February Meet-Up Thread
We've had one attempt at a meet-up north of the perimeter, and one attempt at downtown (since this is where most of our members appear to be from). Do we want to try moving to another area of the metro-area? If so, where? Let's get some discussion going!

No good for me. Sean Taylor and I will be in Chattanooga that weekend for the Con Nooga convention.

Oh, damn, I forgot about the con that weekend, too.
If that weekend is bad for everyone, how about the 14th?

You answered well for me there, Bobbo. You should be my press agent. Hehe.

What would everyone say to trying Max and Erma's over near Perimeter mall in Dunwoody again?

Quick question: is anybody else going to MegaCon? I scored a press pass so, I'll be there.

I'll be down there with Project Fanboy. I'm not going to be able to head down until I get off work on Friday night, though, so I'll only be there for Saturday and Sunday.

Jer reminded me at the con today that the 14th is Valentines day. What about the 15th?

FAQ
What is this network?
The Atlanta Comics Creators network is just what it says it is, group of Atlanta-based comics creators who use this online resource to make connections, build peer relationships, and further their comics careers.
Who is invited to join?
All mainstream, indie, or webcomic artists, inkers, writers, colorists, editors, and publishers; animators; and pop art and low brow creators local to the Atlanta area.
What can I do here?
Take part in forums to pick the minds of other creators, mentor and be mentored, develop small groups based on locale for real life connections, show off your work, form creative teams, network into national and international markets based on current members, and more to come, such as chat functions and more.
Why should I take part?
Because working in this industry tends to isolate us more than pull us together. Because you never know who your next boss or co-worker will be. Because making friends among your peers is a good practice. Because somebody worked really hard to try to make this place a useful resource, dang it.
What are "groups"?
"Groups" are ways of hooking up by common interests (such as manga or webcomics), location (North Atlanta or Downtown), job focus (artist, writer, pop art, or animator), or any other criteria that bonds us together in groups of people that can help each other become more effective or just hang out and enjoy each others' company.
