My Dad was an official photographer for Blakes Seven and I have a big boxful of behind-the-scenes photos that I don’t know what to do with. Does anyone know a museum or fan publication that would want them? Seems a shame to throw them away.
An annual tradition! A staple of the UK indie comics scene! SOON.

Holy crap, what happened to @paperlike.bsky.social? I used to love using one on my iPad Pro (2018 model of the Pro and the Paperlike), but I’ve just upgraded my iPad and the drawing experience on the latest version of the Paperlike is absolutely -terrible-. The pencil sticks to the screen.

Welcome to Hob’s Creek. Have you had your coffee this morning?
Ron was unsure of the snow this morning. He reminded me of Bambi.
It amazes me that people don’t realise the writers/creators of [insert favourite long-running series du jour] are MAKING STUFF UP AS THEY GO ALONG. All these “hints” dropped eight years ago as to the payoff? TOTAL COINCIDENCE. Happy accidents played of as intention.
I won’t be at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social myself this year (boo!) but @wipcomics.bsky.social will! They have stock of this year’s anthology (which is incredible BTW) as well as BIGGER and SPAN. Please pay them a visit at F11 in the Bubbleboy Hall and buy ALL THE BOOKS.
