Comic Books Jobs: Checking Out Craigslist




Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Conventions, Editorials, Movies,

Comic Book GuyIf you have the gift of retail, draw fast, love to intern or want to sell some of your stuff, Craigslist has quite the deals for you.

In Boston, The Million Year Picnic comic book store in Harvard Square has “immediate openings for part-time employment.”

If you have “retail, customer service or sales experience” that’d be a huge plus.

A knowledge of comic books and graphic novels is helpful “but not required. You do have to be able to show up for work every Wednesday morning because that’s new comic day.

Taking its name from Ray Bradbury’s Martian Chronicles, The Million Year Picnic is probably one of the oldest surviving comic book stores around.

The Stan Lee Documentary is looking for another infusion of interns in Los Angeles. It’ll be for the usual run of intern-based tasks and the gig will run from January through the Spring of 2011.

In New York City, an “Events Company” called Etch U Productions is looking to hire a couple of fast artists “to draw comic book-style caricatures and panels” at a special event in January 2011. You gotta be outgoing, friendly and able to complete each drawing within 10 minutes so the audience doesn’t get restless.

In Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Comic Book And Science Fiction Convention is looking for vendors. You get a 3x8 Dealer’s Table + chairs and they promise “the lowest rates for a show featuring fantastic Guest Speakers and give-aways.”Click the link for the actual listing and visit their website for info about past shows and what’s upcoming.

Good luck, Craigslist surfers!
