On Monday, April 6, 2026 at 6:30 PM, we will hold a club meeting at Khon Thai Restaurant at 5800 Burnet Rd, Austin, TX 78756. Our speaker will be Ro Higashi. Ro Higashi is an Austin-based mangaka and manga department head at Cosmic Lion Productions. They're best known for their recently Zelda Award nominated graphic novels series, Half of the Crown. Besides editorial work for other mangaka and comic creators, Ro loves to be involved in her local Asian, LGBTQ+, and art communities. Their recent solo art show, ANGRY CUTE, was at the Three Legged Goat in North Austin. You can catch Ro and their work at the premiere small press expo STAPLE! in Austin, this weekend at the Mabee Ballroom at St. Edwards University.
Please show up early to network and hang out with us. We encourage you to invite family, friends, and colleagues to join us. We will buy a meal for our first time guests!
