Canadian comic book creators are increasingly hesitant to travel to the United States for conventions, citing confusion and anxiety regarding border entry. Tom Grummett, known for his work on titles like 'Superboy' and 'Robin,' has decided to remain in Canada for the year, expressing concerns about the risks of being denied entry. Fellow artist Jim Zub continues to attend some U.S. shows but acknowledges a decrease in participation among his peers. Ken Lashley, another prominent figure in the industry, has embraced local events, stating that it is time to explore more of Canada. The travel restrictions and uncertainties have significant implications for comic creators, as conventions serve not only as a source of income through sales and autographs but also as vital networking opportunities. Despite the challenges, many artists express a desire to connect with their U.S. friends and fans, hoping for a resolution to the current situation.
