Mid-Missouri Comics Collective

I just added the Mid-Missouri Comics Collective to the Missouri Writers Links on the blog. Thanks to Winter for bringing their site to my attention.

According the their homepage, the Collective is "a group of comic creators and enthusiasts based in Columbia, MO." They have great information and articles for all graphic novelists and comic fans out there, so go check them out.
