BENT-CON is the convention for encouraging, celebrating and appreciating LGBT and LGBT-friendly comic-book artists, writers, creators, publishers, directors and producers, creating media targeted directly to LGBT audiences or as part of the larger realm of underground and mainstream pop-culture as a whole.

We want this year’s BENT-CON to bigger and better! We have added film viewing and panel discussions from names you might recognize from various creative industries. Our guests include: Phil Jimenez, comic book writer, artist and penciller, Wonder Woman, Infinite Crisis, New X-Men and The Invisibles. Patrick Fillion, artist, writer, creator and co-publisher of Class Comics Boytoons, Naked Justice and Camili-Cat. Jane Espenson, writer and producer, Husbands, Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Tim Sullivan, director of 2001: Maniacs, I Was A Teenage Wearbear and Chillerama. JT Tepnapa, director, Judas Kiss, Star Trek: Hidden Frontier. Kerry O’Quinn, creator and publisher of Starlog and Fangoria magazines.

Our goal is to continue the excitement we started last year. We want BENT-CON to become a mainstay in the LGBT creative community. We also want to encourage more LGBT artists, writers and filmmakers to showcase their work to the masses.

With your help, BENT-CON can be a must-see event! The funds raised during this Kickstarter campaign will cover:
