Title: Oldham Comic Con 6th May
Post by: Bhuna on 26 April, 2017, 11:27:30 AM
Hi guys,

Call all Mancs and folks from the Greater Manchester area! Oldham is having its first ever comic con on 6th May.

It's being held in the towns library and is a free event. So if you're doing bugger all and twiddling your thumbs next Saturday, why not pop down?

There are a few board members attending and other notable guests:
Me
Dan Charnley
Grant Perkins
Steve Tanner
Joe Mathews
Nick Brockeshire
Haylestorm Comics
Dave Windett
Mike Garley
Jimmy Furlong
Sam Johnson
Richard Piers Rayner

A table has also come available which is free to artists/writers. Some if there are any artists/writers who might like to attend, just let me know.

Cheers

Sadly I can't get there but this sounds like a cracking chance to spend some decent time with comic creators.

Bhuna- Are you going to have any copies of Killing Moon there?
Steve Tanner will probably have copies of Flintlock- including the brand new issue I've not got yet.

Go on, pop along.

Killing Moon will most certainly be available. I'll also be revealing the wrap around cover for Killing Moon 3 on the day too. Buy a copy of issue 1 & 2 of Killing Moon and get an A3 limited edition print of said cover for free.  ;)

Bolt-01. Do you want me to pick up a copy off Steve for you?

Bhuna- thanks for the offer but I'm hoping Steve will have a copy for me at the Edgbaston gig this weekend...

That's Free Comic Book Day isn't it? I might pop into town to pick up my freebies then hop on the tram to Oldham for this!

It is mate. I know the organisers are trying to do their bit for FCBD too. I hope to see you there Dan.

Sorry, not going to make this. Dragged my hungover self out of bed for fcbd and met Hawkmumbler for a few pints, but all I want now is a nap.
