Britol Comic Con!

Greetings, program.

Went to Bristol Comic Con. Was fun and frustrating in equal amounts. Particular highlight was laughing so hard I wept and my chest hurt.

In other news, Stiffs issue #2 is now under way (finally!) and is starting to look pretty snazzy! Here's the first couple of pages for you to have a sneak at. Oh and please go and 'LIKE' the Stiffs Facebook. I'm not sure why, but everyone else is doing it and they're cool!

CICE 2: LeChuck's Revenge

 Last weekend was the second year for the Cardiff Com-Con! I had a fantastic time, catching up with old friends and the like! I didn't buy nearly enough new comics (in fact none!) but this will be amended for Bristol! The main reason for my lack of purchasing was my involvement with the guys at the Lou Scannon table.Another reason is that every con Dan Harris and I attend (2 so far) we have to draw each other some sort of Monkey Island themed piece of art. This year we settled on our favourite sequential scene. Mine was the graveyard scene and Dan's the spitting competition. The pictures alone tell 75% of the story, so I'll leave it to them. Oh and go vote for Lou Scannon for the Eagle Awards best Black and White British comic! 

Hock. Swish. Phoot!

Krakakoom!

Thought Bubble 2011

I can't be bothered to write my own experiences about Thought Bubble, so instead I shall relive those moment by proxy. You should read PJ Montgomery's  post on the SidekickCast website here, which encapsulates all my sentiments about the con beautifully. And then after that scoot on over to Sir Daniel Clifford's account about the event, which again, reiterates my thoughts, feelings and general 'vibe' of Thought Bubble.

This image sums up my weekend in Leeds. Which was the need to shit.

 This is my winning entry to the 2000ad Portfolio competition at Thought Bubble this weekend just gone. It was a fantastic weekend. Still suffering from a little shell shock ...
