LadiesWatch: How to create a Ladies Night at your comic book store.
Sometime late last year, I jokingly told one of the owners of Comic Book Addiction, my local comic bookstore (or LCS, as we nerds like to call it), that it would be cool to have a Ladies Night sometime. I even tried to coax them into getting a liquor license for the night so we ladies could have a round along with our comics chat. I certainly never thought that they would take me up on the joke: in January, I was told that they were 100 per cent behind the idea. I was floored, mainly because I'd never thought it would even happen. I'd joke about it because if it didn't pan out or they weren't interested, then I could blame it on my terrible comedic pitch. But luckily, CBA helped to promote it by having posters done up and talked about it to any women who came in the shop. Since Ladies Comic Book Nights started in March, we've been featured on the front page of our local paper, as well as by two local TV stations.

IndiaWatch: India continues its comics growth
A relatively new form of storytelling in India, graphic novels are steadily and surely setting up an interesting trend. National Institute of Design (NID), along with Alliance Francaise, is going to present the second edition of its animation festival from October 5, with this idea in focus.
The Graphic Narrative Project will focus on children's content this year. "It does not mean that graphic novels are only meant for children. That is a myth which will hopefully shatter in our discussions during the fest," says Sekhar Mukherjee, head of animation department, NID.
The highlight of the week-long event will be the presence of one of the animation legends of the world, Jacques-Remy Girerd, the French producer and owner of the pioneering Folimage studio. Several of his award winning films, like Raining Cats and Frogs, Mia and Migoo, and My dear Little Planet, will be screened. An interaction with the master storyteller is one of the treats lined up for all animation lovers.
