So I was at the bar, when…

What started as an excuse to drink beer and talk comics has now become an excuse to drink beer and make comics. Initially a monthly gathering of like-minded comic fans, Ink and Drink Comics is now a full-fledged publisher, releasing semiannual themed short story anthologies to show off the depth and breadth of comics talent here in St. Louis (plus a few friends from points beyond).

To date, Ink and Drink Comics has:

  • Published 17 Books
  • Published 6 Minicomics
  • Over 125 Contributors
  • Printed thousands and thousands of pages
  • Spilled copious amounts of ink
  • Drank too much beer
