October London Comic Con 2013 - Complete!

With the event now having extra floor space, I found London Comic Con to be a more laid back affair (I don't count Saturdays - they're always super crowded).

Thanks to anyone who dropped by and made the event as fun as it was.  It's always nice to see a healthy mix of new and familiar faces.  My new comics in particular seemed to go down quite well, and I hope anyone who bought anything enjoyed their purchases.

I'll update over the coming months about what's happening next with comics and event.  See you soon! :-)

Thief's Affair Issue 3

 

Arriving from the printer this morning is issue 3 of The Thief's Affair.  It's another chunky issue that contains two more chapters of action, drama and intrigue.  Seriously, events really hit the proverbial in this one so the plot continues to be all nice and twisty and turny. ;-)

It will be making its debut as MCM London Comic Con next week.  Please look out for it!

 

Camcon 2013 - Complete!

Camcon finished for me earlier today.  At the time I write  this many attendees will still be partying the night away, which sums up much of why this event was fun to attend.

Everyone was friendly and interested in having a good time.  The atmosphere of the dealer's room help create a really enjoyable event.  There were a few comic fans in there with Japanofail as ever being the most popular comic, but the Six Anthology also sneaking in for a notable second place.  Good times!

Next event is MCM London Expo in October.  See you in in 2 months! :-D

Japanofail 8

It's only been a couple months since issue 7, but I thought I'd get ahead of the game and so Japanofail 8 is here! This is good because it means I can have a new comic out for Camcon next weekend while also guaranteeing that a new comic is already done and ready for October's MCM Comic Con.  This comic being finished also gives me a little more breathing room to work on other comics.  Yay!

Please look out for it! ^_^

Manchester Comic Con 2013 - Complete!

It was extremely hot last Saturday, but this did not stop Manchester from hosting an excellent event!  Everyone was really friendly and it was great to meet so many new people.  Japanofail proved to be a big draw for buyers, with Cosplay Kerfuffle getting its share as well.  I don't always bring them along, but I also brought a bunch of badges to sell and they were super popular!

It felt really encouraging to attend an event as positive as this one.  If circumstances allow I'll certainly be interested in returning next year. :-)

So that's Manchester in the bag, next comes Camcon!  This will be my first time attending an event in Cambridge.  6 weeks to go!

Manchester Prep

So it's the Manchester Comic Con a week from today.  It's the first time I'm attending and am looking forward to seeing a lot of new faces.  I thought it'd be an idea to give a rundown of my wares so people have an idea of what to expect before hand.

Japanofail - Random short comic strips about otaku life.  As merciless as it is random.  Issues 1-7 available.

The Thief's Affair - Period-set mystery drama.  Lots of top hats and smoking of pipes.  Issues 1-2 available.

My Lovely Omnivore - Comedy action.  There's a tournament too, and penguins.  Volume 1 available.

Cosplay Kerfuffle - Self-contained comedy about cosplayers.  Cosplayers who swear.  A lot.

Beholder of the Eye - A fantasy tale of revenge and death. Recommended for mature readers. Issue 1-5 and complete.

DRUNK   - Self-contained story of drunk people.  Aggression and stupid combine.

Anthologies - Not sure what you're after?  Then maybe an anthology of multiple artists would be better.  One is called Six (a comics freestyle) and the other Till the Sun Grows Cold (containing entries of the Japanese Embassy's Manga Jiman competition).

If you're attending, come say hi! :-)

July 2013 London Film and Comic Con - Complete!

So the last weekend was London Film and Comic Con at Earls' Court - a venue which has surprisingly effective air con and fought well against the searing heat outside.

As ever thanks to everyone who dropped by.  There were a couple of returning people who came for more of my comics which is seriously the biggest compliment you guys can give. Thanks! :-)

My next event is up north in Manchester for their MCM Comic Con in just over a week.  It will be my first time attending as I rarely seem to escape the London events.  Treat me gently! ;-D
