Last year was a massive year for me in a few ways. but one of the biggest things was exhibiting at Thought Bubble in Leeds. Which for those who don't know is one of the biggest and possibly the best comic convention in this country. Its a fantastic event where small press guys like myself can rub shoulders with the big boys in the industry and there is no snobbery or anything like that. It's just a lot of fun with a lot of people who love comics. Well this year I'm going again and like last year I'm sharing a stall. This year I shall be sharing the stall with fellow comic creator and awesome artist Mike Jackson aka @Mikimus_Prime so you all need to come and visit us and get cool sketches ok :-).
As for what comics will be coming to Thought Bubble, well I'm currently working on the first full issue of 'The Intrepid Endeavours of Cornelius Blow' which will introduce all the main characters and story of what I hope will be a long running series. I am also working on the first pages of 'Potemkin2205' which is a very different kettle of fish to Cornelius, but more on that another time. Finally along with the comics I'm hoping to have progressed far enough on the Cornelius game to be able to bring a copy along to show people.
So all in all a big year ahead for comics and this is on top of all the other illustration projects I have planned. Watch this space for updates and I'll keep you all posted.
