This past weekend was Tucson Comic-Con. I have a soft spot for Tucson, the show owners and show runners are friends, and I’m always happy to be a guest at their show.
I took that photo after set-up and before heading over to a new favorite bar, The Saint Charles Tavern. Don’t let the neighborhood scare you, this place was great and I could have spent all day there. No overpowering music and very laid back around lunchtime. The can cooler features pro-union stickers alongside the usual brewery and music ones, which is always a plus. A good selection of bottles and cans alongside a solid tap line-up and a full bar. Just overall a really cool spot I’ll revisit next time I visit the Old Pueblo.
It’s always fun to see friends and fans in Tucson and I was able to pick up a couple amazing Ben Caldwell/Mark Morales. The cartooning in these are top-notch.
I’m all done for cons this year, but I do have two road trips planned. Little Rock at the end of this month, and L.A. at the end of October so send me your recommendations for cool bars in those towns, I’m always looking for new spots!
