A couple of Valley comic book shops will be taking part in Saturday’s 24 Hour Comics Day Challenge. Cartoonists of all ages can participate — but they’ll have to write, draw and letter an entire 24-page comic book.
Participating locations this year include Pop Culture Paradise near downtown Tempe and Jesse James Comics in Glendale.
Are you up to the flurry of creativity required for this marathon task?
