Hi, I run Kings Heath Comic Con, and we have quite the announcement to make. If you love comics, you are NOT going to want to miss this con. This guest hasn't done a UK con in nearly a decade!. You can only meet him EXCLUSIVELY at our event. For more, check out our website: highviscomic-con.com
I always enjoy catching up with writer @dougwagner13.bsky.social. And this time it was to discuss his new espionage thriller 'Yumi-00EX' from @imagecomics.com with FOC this Monday. Check out my interview over at @thecomicon.bsky.social: tinyurl.com/yv4tnjsu
It's another New Comic Book Day and 'Star-Crosed' #1 by Mark Millar and Corrado Mastantuono and @darkhorse.com is out. Here's my review for the debut issue only at @thecomicon.bsky.social: tinyurl.com/4ucupfrv
I took a break from watching the footie and watched They Will Kill You. What an adrenaline-fuelled thrill ride that was. Great aesthetics, directing and bonkers story with pretty gory over-the-top action. Plus an amazing soundtrack. On Sky Cinema now. Highly recommend.
I cycled home from work. Bumped into a good friend. End it up bumping into other friends on York Road. And now I’m a bit swiffy and feeling very happy. Kings Heath is one of those very special places that shine. Great vibe and great chats. Spontaneous drinking sessions are the best.
I met Tomm Coker a few years ago and he was a sound dude. This interview solidifies my opinion of him. Read it only @thecomicon.bsky.social

25 years ago in a comic con at the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool I was fortunate enough to get this sketch of Jay & Silent Bob by the amazing @duncanfegredo.bsky.social. I and then I lost it. But now it’s found and now it’s framed! Finally!
