New River Community College Comic Con Here We Come!!

by John Rose

Discussing one of my favorite Snuffy Smith comic strips during a Snuffy Smith Chalk Talk I did for a previous New River Community College Comic Con.

BARNEY GOOGLE AND SNUFFY SMITH cartoonist John Rose will be a guest at the New River Community College Comic Con in Dublin, Virginia (just outside Roanoke) on Saturday, October 29, 2016.

The guests and sellers will be in Edwards Hall, Room 117. Exhibitions, displays and demonstrations will be held in the Student Lounge in Martin Hall. Children can wear Halloween costumes and cos-players are invited to come as their favorite comic book, sci-fi, fantasy or horror characters. Admission is free.

Rose will be in attendance from 10 A.M. to 3:30 P.M. and will present a Snuffy Smith Chalk Talk during the day on Saturday. In his chalk talk, Rose will talk about his career as the Barney Google and Snuffy Smith cartoonist, show samples of his work and draw some of the comic strip’s most popular characters for the audience. He will also be signing copies of his new comic strip book collection, Balls Of Fire! More Snuffy Smith Comics.
