If you’ll have comics on your table please mark yourself as a Comic Creator on the form! And if you won’t have any comics on your table please don’t say Comic Creator!

And we conclude this journey. I'm a few days out now, and just finished this page sitting in Little Deer. Haven't really had time to process the end of the trip since I've been working every day since, but you'll hear about that I'm sure when Purgatory returns to its weekly slot.

This wonderful made video by Rón Maguire highlights how integral The Complex has been for DCAF's growth #SaveTheComplex

Have you written your reps? Please take 5 minutes to do so. €6 million saves The Complex, one of the last remaining arts venues in Dublin and the home of @dublincomicarts.bsky.social ! It’s an obvious easy win, which means we need to drag our government over the line kicking and screaming!

Honestly it’s Not Ideal to have to rework my webshop like this during the Christmas season but #savethecomplex is essential to the stability of Little Deer, @dublincomicarts.bsky.social and the Dublin arts scene in general! So please take a moment: littledeercomics.ie/blogs/news/s...

TOMORROW! I'm tabling at the excellent @dublincomicarts.bsky.social from 11-5 in The Complex, 12 Mary's Abbey, Smithfield and I'll have comics, prints and postcards galore for you to pick up, be it for yourself or a seasonal gift! Don't miss out on so many great artists!

DCAF is tomorrow!!!! Don't miss your opportunity to support artists and get some unique gifts for your favourite people this holiday season!!! There is so much to choose from. We've only highlighted a tiny amount of the cool things you'll find tomorrow at The Complex, Dublin 7

DCAF is happening tomorrow. We thought it was time to reshare why we mask at DCAF events. We have exhibiting artists and audience members who are immuno-suppressed and immuno-compromised. Masking ensures everyone can safely participate in DCAF! 😷❤️ 2 m

Our Debut Book page is heaving with new titles for DCAF this Sunday! For more information check out our website: www.dublincomicarts.ie/debut-books

Don't forget to gather your old comics and get some great swaps this Sunday!

OUR NEXT EVENT IS NOVEMBER 30TH, SO IT'S TIME TO MEET OUR ARTISTS PT.2! Kayla Marok is an illustrator, animator and storyteller. Her work is eerie, playful and strangely nostalgic.
