Great British Comics: Past, Present + Future
Important: this event has passed!
How do the comics of our childhoods stand up to today? Boyfriend, Eagle, Battle, Rick Random and more are being reappreciated thanks to a wave of compilations, artbooks and studies. Steve Holland, David Leach, David Roach and special guest artist Oliver Frey examine the creators behind these wizard wheezes and ripping yarns. In the second part, cartoonists Adam Brockbank, John and Patrice Aggs, Gary Northfield and Sarah McIntyre from new weekly The DFC compare notes on how to make comics appeal to 21st century kids.
Supported by Bloomsbury, Carlton, The DFC & Titan. Followed by book signings.
