Our Diversity Spotlight Maps highlight Disabled Creators, Creators of Colour and LGBT + Queer creators exhibiting at Thought Bubble Comic Convention 2026! Thanks so much to all our exhibitors who put their namers forward to be part of these excellent maps.
Scroll down for the full listings! You can also pick up the Diversity Spotlight Booklet for free at this years convention!
Each year, we team up with the wonderful Tab Kimpton, mastermind of the Rainbow Road Map, to highlight the amazing LGBTQ+ comic artists, writers and creators who attend the show.
Rainbow Road is an optional choice for all exhibitors which welcomes LGBTQ+ creators who represent gender, sexuality and romantic minorities, i.e. Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Non-binary, Intersex, Asexual and all the other stuff which comes under the Queer rainbow.
This map will be in print in our Diversity Spotlight Booklet at this year’s Comic Convention!
