Lansing Independent Comics & Zine Fest
@liczfest.com
It's pronounced "licks!" 📅 Saturday, April 18th @ Grewal Hall! 👾 Organized by @ultramega.studio 🔗 https://linktr.ee/liczfest
Thank you so much @elephanteater.bsky.social !! 😭
Ryan Claytor @elephanteater.bsky.social · 4mo agoI've been self-publishing my work for over twenty years, exhibited at over 100 conventions, directed a comics event for over a decade-and-a-half, and I've got a new favorite event. Jimmy @ultramega.studio thank you for doing what I didn't think was possible with @liczfest.com ! I'm blown away!
I got all the new @diskettepress.com books at @liczfest.com because I have excellent taste
LICZ! IS TODAY! ✨ Come by Grewal Hall from 11:00am - 4:30pm for the coolest comics and zine fest in town! Later in the day, enjoy some zine-making and an open mic night over at A Novel Concept and Dear Ollie! Use this map to navigate around the fest! Meet some creators, grab a drink, and enjoy!
Hi I have a new mini comic debuting this weekend at @liczfest.com !! If you like monster girls and bags this is for you
this and @liczfest.com is going on good weekend for looking at paper
mkerste@mkerste.bsky.social · 4mo agoSay @lansingmifacts.com, were you aware that this Sunday there will be a very good used/rare/ antiquarian book show at a very bad hotel with a very adequate event space? It's true! Cheap to enter, so you have more to spend on BOOOOOOKS. 9:30 to 5, be there or don't get any books! Do not book a room!
SCHEDULE CHANGE: LICZ! will now end 30 minutes earlier at 4:30pm! Unfortunately, our venue has accidentally double-booked the space toward the end of our fest. Sometimes things like this happen. To try to keep things running smoothly, we've agreed to close doors to the public just a bit early.
LICZ! is tomorrow! 🙀 We're getting all the last-minute details squared away. It's so exciting!! Keep an eye out tomorrow morning for our table map!
And while @danielelkin.bsky.social is selling Comics to Poets, I'll be selling Comics to Zinesters this Saturday in Lansing MI at @liczfest.com - the same great flavors almost a whole continent apart!
Fieldmouse Press@fieldmouse.press · 4mo agoPoetry Comics? Comics Poetry? We will be back at the Sierra Poetry Festival this Saturday, the 18th, slinging books in the midst of all sorts of beautiful words and people. Come and join us, buy some books, bring some snacks, celebrate art!
Here's the rest of 'em--our final slate of exhibitors‼️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
Wow! Could we have made a graphic any busier?! Guess what. We're not ONLY going to have 50+ exhibitors in Grewal Hall this Saturday... We're also going to have some events at A Novel Concept and Dear Ollie too!
New LICZ! shirts! (▰˘◡˘▰) We made ~40 or so shirts for volunteers and attendees who wanna snag one. $20 each at the LICZ! welcome table this Saturday! Once they're gone... they're gone!
LICZ! '26 is sponsored in part by @cartoonstudies.bsky.social, sending us support all the way from Vermont! It feels really special to have a name like CCS attached to this fest. Thank you so much for helping to keep this fest running, and let's get more comics made!
Excited to get back to my old stomping grounds this weekend!

LICZ! is a recipient of the City of Lansing's Mini Pocket Grant Program for the second year running, and we're so grateful for the support! Without help, it wouldn't be possible to put together a fest of this scale. So, even a mini grant feels huge! Thanks @lansingmichigan.bsky.social !
