The Lille Deal

I've just returned from a very pleasant visit to Lille for their Comics Festival, where we were treated like kings. Kings, I tell you! And I made some friends. Here are a few of them:


Left to Right: Emma Simcock-Tooth, Ali Pow3rs, Emily Hare and Kev Crossley


Left to Right: D'Israeli, Lin Carey, Mike Carey, Jamie Delano, Chris Weston


Left to Right: David Billoir, Jamie Delano, Bryan Talbot, Alan Mitchell, Lin Carey and Mike Carey.



I also did a bunch of sketches - here are a couple I managed to bring home with me:






A big thank you to the sponsors and hosts of the show. They even managed to find some vegetarian food for me, which I had expected would prove impossible in France (the country where eating meat is not just a right, but a duty).

And yes, all right, the beds and the rooms in which we found them were exactly the same size, but you can't have everything.

  2. I promise you, there was an empty chair there! Maybe you were getting a drink or something. Lovely to meet you, though!

  4. Poor Yethi Bob... Why are you so sad? I wish I knew cool places where you could find Yethi Saras, Yethi Clarices and Yethi Mariahs. Or, at least, there could be a Yethi Lily Allen to cheer you up.

The spam filter is back on because it just goes berserk if I switch it off. Sorry - I'll get to your comments ASAP!
