GLAAD Award-winning publisher Fanbase Press is thrilled to make its return to the Latinx Comic Arts Festival (LCAF), alongside a number of other talented independent creators and artists! Taking place on Friday, April 3, and Saturday, April 4, 2026, at Modesto Junior College’s West Campus in Modesto, CA, the event is the Central Valley’s celebration of Latinx creators and friends. This free comics convention features cartoonists, writers, artists, animators, storyboard artists, and more. Even better, it’s an all-ages, family friendly event open to the community! Each day from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., we will be meeting fans at the Fanbase Press booth, where you can purchase all of our award-winning comics and graphic novels!

Fans in attendance will have a chance to stop by the Fanbase Press table to pick up all of our comics and graphic novels, including the 2024 GLAAD Media Award-nominated Four-Color Heroes, 2023 Eisner and Harvey Awards-nominated Ripple Effects, the 2018 Eisner Award-nominated Quince, the multiple award-winning Quince: The Definitive Bilingual Edition hardcover, the 2022 International Latino Book Award-winning Nuclear Power, and more.
