Title: The Comics Festival- Egbaston April 23rd
Post by: Bolt-01 on 14 April, 2016, 01:12:43 PM
Surpised there isn't a link to this already, but here you go:

The Comics Festival (http://www.thecomicfestival.com/)

This is the second year for the event, and once again it is at Edgbaston Cricket ground.

Quite a few 2000 AD related guests (D'Israeli, Mark Harrison, Mike Collins, Leigh Gallagher among many) and also a chance to see the S/D badge that is available as part of the comp running till the end of April for FQP & Zarjaz. Drop by, top up on thrill power and you might get lucky.

Yep, all in pretty good nick. Newsagent marks and some page browning but not bad at all.

Plus lots of signed stuff for the charity auctions

And some interesting developments with the 2000AD notebook project. Watch this space. ;-)

Ooh, timely reminder - just ordered my Zarjaz & Dogbreath via the FQ shop - fingers crossed for the raffle!
