There are no upcoming Meetups.
The Graphic Novel Bookgroup reads in as wide a range as there are literary genres. The one commonality is that they all involve stories told with the aid of pictures - sequential storytelling. Obviously, this definition does not limit the content, and, if you were to browse several graphic novels, you’d find striking variety: memoir, journalism, literary fiction, humor, experimental, abstract, underground comix, sketchbook/journaling, superhero, mainstream, manga, manwha, the list goes on.

A comic book club that meets twice monthly to chat about anything related to comic book culture. We love floppies & trades, golden age & modern, superheroes & indies, comic movies & shows, characters & creators, toys & games, spinners & cons. Generally we see movies and have TV nights, meet at comic books stores and coffee shops in and around the northern Virginia / DC Metro area.
ArtKlub is a group of friends who are local Northern Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and Washington DC artists that meet weekly for fun, self-education and encouragement, and to obtain critiques and try vet new ideas. Sometimes we're pencil to paper, sometimes we're discussion and goofing off. We are there to create, inspire, and share. We help hold each other accountable to making deadlines for commissions, when asked to do so. This is not like book club, sipping tea and having intellectua …
Love graphic novels? Wish you could meet with fellow readers for interesting discussion? Same here. Let's meetup and talk about great graphic novels (and maybe have a glass of beer or wine on the side! ⎯perhaps tea and crumpets while reading From Hell?) Join us in exploring all genres and styles, from Watchmen and V for Vendetta to Maus and Persepolis (with a liberal sprinkling of Jhonen Vasquez, Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller and others in between).
A live, as opposed to on-line, book discussion group that reads speculative fiction like Science Fiction, Fantasy, Mystery, Graphic Novels and more! As this group grow I hope to include Movie, TV, and Game nights and possibly trips to events like Balticon or even New York Comic Con. I want this to be a content rich envirionment and I plan on starting some related topics on the discussion boards. If anyone would like to help with organizing or adding content, message me!

'Square City Comics' is a self-publishing comic (graphic novel, web comic, etc.) group based in the greater Washington, DC area. We are a handful of artists and writers who meet at least once a month to discuss our projects, characters, ideas, problems, etc. Though we each move at our own paces, we are all dedicated to making comics. Our sessions are a productive and positive place to share issues and get regular feedback. The ultimate goal is to help each other self-publish our own projects and …
We are the oxymoron to the geek and nerd stereotype - the "social" nerds and the "chic" geeks. Sure, we love Battlestar Galactica, but that doesn't mean we can't hold our own at a high class social function. Yes, we can debate the finer points of whether Han shot first, but we can also jump into the fray and talk about the latest in pop culture. Although we can explain the relation between a "Hobbit" and a "Halfling" to someone, it doesn't mean that we locked ourselves away from society and stud …
Within the increasingly popular graphic novel genre, there is a fascinating subgroup of author-illustrators writing graphic memoirs and history. Whether exploring their own personal experiences or documenting the history of the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement, this genre has proved to be an exciting kind of storytelling. Come explore this genre in a new after-work book club in Chinatown. Every month, we will engage a new title, making our way through some of the now "classic" works lik …
