COMIC ARTIST HEADED FOR C2E2 TURNED BACK AT BORDER

Webcomic/comic artist Gisele Lagace was refused entry into the U.S. on her way to C2E2 in Chicago from New Brunswick, Canada, she wrote in a Facebook post. The issue was apparently her intent to complete artwork for commissions while in the U.S. “They kept pressing about the comics I had and the sketches, and well, I had to be honest and said that I did get paid for commissions but before hand, but since they weren’t complete, it was considered work in the U.S.,” she wrote.
