Our Mission
The goal of the Columbus Scribbler is to introduce and educate the people of Columbus to the vibrant comics scene surrounding them and to help foster a love and deeper appreciation for the comics medium as a whole.
We want to promote local comic events (book signings, readings, conventions, festivals, or simply a hangout with others). We want people to explore and learn about the history of comics, meet local comic creators, or be inspired to make their own comics with handy tutorials and an avalanche of local comic art. We want the people of Columbus to become a part of the amazing comics community here in our wonderful city.
