So yesterday I went along to Comica Comiket, and it was such a great day. Many thanks to Paul Gravett and Peter Stanbury for once again running the event. I was sharing with the lovely Lily Rose Beardshaw and Sammy Borras from Inspired Comics. Check out our table^!
In one of the photos you can see our table neighbour Howard Hardiman (The Lengths), and above my head is John Allison (Bad Machinery) who was on the table behind us. Was lovely to meet John, he’d given me some really helpful advice earlier in the year so it was great to thank him in person. It was also hilarious seeing him try to sell a spare duck wrap to people in the afternoon XD (EDIT: Also forgot to mention that Marc Ellerby and Adam Cadwell were opposite us, and I was staring very longingly at the Chloe Noonan tote bags all day.)
The event was absolutely packed, so much that I felt slightly trapped behind my table all day, but I did manage to dive out for a bit to say hello to people. Was good to see Rebecca and Sarah Burgess, who always light up my day, and their Forever12 accomplices Laura Watton, Chloe Citrine, Fred O’Rourke, Chris Bottoms, Anaseed-man, Evelyn Hewett and Gillian Ha.
Throughout the day I watched the remaining Cafe Suada books disappear, and worked on the cover of Cup 2, as well as the plot for Cup 3. I was pretty productive! All because I announced yesterday my intentions to release Cup 2 at the London MCM Expo this May. GET EXCITED, SAVE YOUR PENNIES, CAUSE IT’S A COMIN’ YOUR WAY!
Also as promised yesterday, Cafe Suada updated last night! Off you go!
