» Blog Archive » LUC@176 TABLE PLAN – Just a reminders about LUC176 which is happening on Saturday if you happen to be at a loose end with nothing to do. I won't be there all day, but I'll probably pop in a couple of times as it's only 'round the corner. There should be [...]

Next up on the UK comics scene…
Some future events to look forward to: April 24th-26th: Alex Milway's Crystal Palace Children's Book Festival, with loads of people from the Super Comics Adventure Squad (formerly of the DFC) and some fun-looking workshops. May 3rd: the London Zine Symposium. I remember seeing loads of lovely handmade books and things there last year, so I'm [...]
Talkin' 'bout the Things we used to do…
I didn't make it to the model trains at the Peoples' Palace, but I did make it to mini comics at, er, the Peoples' Palace. How many Peoples' Palaces are there in London anyway? Anyway, nomenclature aside, it was a good event, by all accounts. I deliberately arrived late, as past events have seen me [...]
spring forward with glee
It's that time of the year again. That's right, it's time for The Thing on Saturday. Looks like it's going to be a good year again — this list of attendees doesn't even cover all of them. In the nearby New Globe pub, those rebel reprobates from LUC are having their own breakaway event, SchmurgenCon. [...]
Save the DFC
Save the DFC – Nice campaign from non-partisan fan. I particularly like the pledglings idea, so I've offered to chip in for that. You should too!
Sarah McIntyre – sad day for the DFC
Sarah McIntyre – sad day for the DFC – Random House puts the DFC up for sale. This *is* sad (though not *entirely* unexpected, I must admit, even without the recession, just because of the way the market was anyway). But it'll be a greater pity if the enthusiasm and creativity it inspired takes a [...]
The Forbidden Planet International Blog Log » From Our Continental Correspondent – Stento draws portraits
The Forbidden Planet International Blog Log » From Our Continental Correspondent – Stento draws portraits – I am totally in love with this <i>gorgeous</i> portrait of Corto Maltese. Which bids the question: isn't it waaaaay past time for someone to bring the books back into print in the English language? Preferably with better translations than [...]
circles vs. triangles, hypercubes and starry nights
I planned to go to the first big session of Amp09′s year last Tuesday but, due to a headache that has been giving me irregular stabbing pains on one side of my head, I bailed on going. So far I haven't seen any reports to suggest that I actually missed all that much apart from [...]
go Kaz!
My mate Karen Rubins has just been announced as the successful applicant for the comics residency at the Sackler Education Centre of the Victoria & Albert Museum, which is awesome and amazing news (although it probably means that she's even less likely to have time for that long-promised update of her website). Congratulations Kaz! Well [...]
