General / Comic-Con UK Invasion panel
09 August, 2011, 11:35:23 AM
Wish I'd been there for this one!

QuoteU.K. creators Grant Morrison, Garth Ennis, Dave Gibbons, David Lloyd, John Higgins and Alan Davis came together on Saturday evening at Comic-Con International in San Diego to tell the origins of their careers and converse about the comic book scene for U.K. creators over the last 40 years.

QuoteThe final question was probably the most relevant: "Can the British comics industry be saved?"

"No -- the British publishers don't really care about comics," said Lloyd, with no disagreement from his fellow panelists.

Ennis delivered some hard facts about the current status of U.K. creators in the States. "I think '2000 A.D. ' will be fine for a while. The reprints of the old stuff are doing well enough, as are the movies. How [do] you expand on that? I don't know...I'm the youngest here, and I'm 41. The U.K. Invasion, such as it was, was a thing of the past,

I noticed the other day that Brahm Revel is selling small sketches for $5 from his brilliant 'Guerillas' comic (from Image but now being collected by Oni, about machine-gun monkeys fighting Vietcong) so I asked him if he would do something larger for me. Which he did...
