Kevin Boyd Part 1/3

Kevin Boyd is an integral builder of Toronto’s comic book community. He’s now the Comics Programming Coordinator for Fan Expo Canada and the Toronto Comiccon, as well as the director of The Joe Shuster Canadian Comic Book Awards. He was also the owner of the now closed Comic Book Lounge and Gallery and was the co-founder of the now defunct Paradise Comicon.

In part one of our interview, he discusses how he got into comics and why he went from creating comics to selling his collection at conventions. He also goes into how he ended up co-founding one of the most beloved Toronto comic conventions of all time and accidentally become embroiled in Toronto’s biggest comic con civil war.
