This unique event featured panel discussions, vendors, exhibitions. It was open sourced, open to the LGBTQ community, folks of color, folks of non-color, the disabled, while openly celebrating creators and concepts derived from the Black, Urban, African & Indie experience.
ONLI STUDIOS planned it to support the launch of Milestone Media that same month.
"You do not have to be Black to get your Black Age on!"
The impact of this continuing event is the steady successful explosion of various indie comic cons around the USA featuring People of Color / LGBTQ and Alternative
Plus how "Black" or "Diverse" was this industry before this launch compared to after it hit?
We thank all of the positive folks along the way who have attended, participated in, and supported our efforts to grow the Black Age of Comics genre into a positive welcoming force for creativity, culture & commerce.
The rise of MEECA CON, ECBACCC, Onyx-Con, MCBACC & Pocket Con and such are examples of this living legacy.
