ConnectiCon, July 8-9, in Hartford, CT http://connecticon.org/ The Paul Reveres table will be in their "Artists' Colony". I don't believe they have a map of the room available yet, but I'll keep you all posted. I'll have all my regular items that you can find in the store as well as some new stuff such as Johnny Tremain goodies and Issue #5!
American Independence Festival, July 16, in Exeter, NH http://www.independencemuseum.org/aim_aif.htm The Paul Reveres will be outside under our own tent (so official!) and exhibiting at The American Independence festival as a vendor. I'll have all the goodies listed in the store and the new swag I have prepared for ConnectiCon. Might have some free goodies (buttons, perhaps!) available as well. I went to this festival last year and it was a lot of fun! They have demonstrations, a reenactment, the American Independence Museum and food too! I got a good picture last year of a British soldier eating fried dough. Seemed pretty authentic to me. Of course this is what I remember.
Also, for all you creative types, I wanted to mention an awesome contest currently going on over at The Paper Wings Podcast. Lora Innes (from The Dreamer) is a co-host of the podcast and I listen to it every time there is a new show, so I wanted to make sure to mention their contest. Those Wacom tablets are amazing. It's one of the tools I use to draw The Paul Reveres every week! You can check out the official contest rules here.

OH YES HE DID!
Ummm who is he? Idk, but I do know that is one UPSETTING incentive!
Tina
The aim is to offend so no one ever votes for me again. I’m doing it right, right?
couchfort
Nailing it
kari
gotta love the fakeish ghetto streak in paul. now i’m just picturing him snapping his fingers three times and going on about how great boston is. xDD
this week’s is nice, and I’M THE SECOND POST WHAT NAO BITCHES >:3
i like how there’s a bunch of little panels, it feels like i haven’t seen that from you in awhile. xD
i set a reminder for the independence festival. ^^ i need to entertain my imported dude while he’s here, and that sounds like a perfect oppertunity. ^^
one last thing: this week’s vote incentive was so cyoot i could barely stand it. o/////o
(and thanks for the contest!! *w*)
couchfort
“imported dude”?
Tina
Paul is from the street.
Did you know that less panels makes an easier to draw page? Oh, I’m incredibly lazy and knew this. Nine panels a page is too much, I say! I usually don’t like to go past 8, but with this scene it’s very wordy, so I want to get through it quickly.
Hope you can make it to the festival! I had a lot of fun last year and it would be extra awesome if some of my readers showed up! And is your imported dude a foreign exchange student or something?
Nicole
Yes. Yes I do. lots of small panels are the bane of my existence.
And omg some real history? Yay!
Tina
You question the “real” history in this comic?!
…oh, right.
kari
i met the imported dude over the internet 3 years ago. he came here for AB 10′, and decided to come back for a vacation. -w-
i’m definitely going to try to make it. since we can’t go to the LARP that was that weekend, we might as well go to a festival. besides, exeter is so pretty. :3
that’s one place where you and i differ; i love having alot of panels. gives me chances to do insane amounts of detail. xDD
also, the only street i could picture paul being from is the Sesame Street. :\
(btw, you read Scandinavia and the world too? ^^)
Tina
LOL at Sesame Street. I don’t know though. I’d think some of those muppets might be too scary for Paul. They’re kinda too scary for me.
And yeah, I just learned about that webcomic, actually. Saw it on DeviantArt of all places. It’s quite entertaining.
kari
SatW makes me proud to be a half-swede, even if sweden is a tad wimpy in that comic. xDD
and as for paul’s life as a resident of sesame street, i get the feeling that he would have taken a different route to get home from wherever he was, to avoid oscar. :3
Yuriko72
Nice, love the page, again a awesome job. and though it contains no nessceity what so ever.
Happy canadian independence day!!!!!!
Tina
America’s Hat has a special day too? Hrm…
Just kidding! Half of my family is from Canada.
Yuriko72
you say their our hat, I say were their pants. XD
And cool!!!!
Tina
Haha, you could look at it that way too.
Rachel
Liking the 1st panel when the quill and ink seem to jump up into the air…your little details are great!
Way to butt in, guy. When you’ve got Paul mad you know stuff’s ’bout to go down.
Tina
Thanks!
I’m surprised Paul actually said something, TBH.
Jesus
Get him Paul get all up in his grill
Tina
LOL. Them’s fightin’ words!
xscythe7x
WHO IS THAT LOSER??? O.O
Tina
We’ll find out officially next page!
NyxSchuyler
Ohohoho! D:< If my history nerd intuition is right… is that- dare I say- Mr. John DICKinson, the ranting Pennslyvanian UP IN MASSACHUSETTE’S GRILL AS USUAL?!
Oh, and John Hancock’s angry flying ponytail in the first panel made me giggle. :D
Tina
Aw, you made the DICKinson joke before I could. That guy is so annoying.
And thanks for the comments on Hancock’s hair. He totally appreciates it. I find him a lot of fun to draw since I like John Hancock in history.
dirksies
AH! I’ve been following this comic for awhile, but I all just got up the nerve to post. I love the different twists that you put on the historical events, it makes history fun! On a different note, this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZfRaWAtBVg) reminds me of this comic–especially from 2:28 on. Keep up the great work!
Tina
Thanks so much for reading! I’m glad that you like the comic!
And, yeah, I love that video! I kept watching it over and over a few months ago. So funny!
Liz
I’m a big fan of the facial expression in the first panel. Good stuff!
Valentine

Valentine
