London Film And Comic Con Photos

We had a fantastic time at the con and bumped into loads and loads of interesting and lovely people including Boo Cook, Pat Mills, Brendan McCarthy and far too many others to mention.

Thanks to everyone who made the whole thing possible (especially Stuart AKA Loki). Looking forward to next year's already.

A Box Of Albions Arrived Today.

Albion #1: "No Future In England's Dreaming"

Our boxes arrived unexpectedly today (more than a week before the issue hits the stands) and we were both blown away by our first viewing of the full colour, full length versions.
Dave Gibbons dropped us an email to say he'd received his copies and that he was very impressed.

Leah has just finished typing Alan's corrections for #5 so we're going to email those to Wildstorm and then sort out our mini plan for #6 in time for visiting Northampton before the con on Saturday.

Busy? Well, for comic writers I suppose...

Builth Balkan Crew Update

The Builth Balkan Crew have now returned from their two weeks in Romania having completed the work on the orphanage.

Congratulations to everyone involved!

But it's not over yet, the BBC still desperately need donations to pay off their debts (the crew decided that getting the work done was the number one priority and so went ahead with the works despite having not yet reached their fundraising target).

There are still plenty of Rocking For Romania CDs (featuring Alan Moore) available for £7 +P&P each, 100% of profits from which go to the BBC.

Click "Contact" at the top of the page to order your copies now.

J.

PS Thanks to everyone who has bought a CD so far.
