Last Saturday was the first outing of the Dessinators at a UK comic fair since CECAF last November. Sean and I did make it to Angouleme, but we seem to have spent the last six months in hibernation.
Takeover 2015, the Alternative Press and London Radical Bookfair cross-over in Bermondsey, was a welcome distraction from the disappointment of the election and ended up being a good day despite the delayed-delivery-of-tables fiasco. So great to catch up with my table mates and see some familiar faces again.
I managed to produce a new mini comic for the event, as well as collecting my copy of
A little Bit of Undigested Potato bad dream anthology from the lovely
Keara Stewart. As well as organising a second event, Sean has found time to put together another excellent new tome – check out
Tracks in Orbital or Gosh.
A date for your diary is June 6th : make your way to Crouch End for
CECAF 2 and all kinds of comic goodness!
Expect to see the likes of
Sally Anne Hickman,
Danny Noble,
Julia Scheele,
Breakdown Press,
Paul Rainey,
Andy Oliver and many many more...
