Kevin Boyd is an integral builder of Toronto’s comic book community. He’s now the Comics Programming Coordinator for Fan Expo Canada and the Toronto Comicon, as well as the director of The Joe Shuster Canadian Comic Book Awards. He was also the owner of the now closed Comic Book Lounge and Gallery and was the co-founder of the now defunct Paradise Comicon. In the final part of our interview, Kevin talks about what brought him back to working for his one-time bitter rival and former employer, Fan Expo Canada and the plans he has for Toronto Comicon 2016. We chat about the issues affecting comic conventions around the world, what he thinks of them and how Fan Expo sees these issues.
