Dave Gibbons Guests at CanalCon Sunday September 20th!

Posted: September 17, 2015

It may just be the world’s first Comic Convention on a canal! CanalCon is this Sunday September 20th on board the Floating Cinema barge and on the astroturfed canalside steps leading up to Granary Square, home of Central Saint Martin’s College of Arts. It’s the finale of the Extra-Terrestrial London four-day programme.

It kicks off from 12 noon with a free Comica Comiket offering the chance to purchase great comics and graphic novels direct from publishers like Rebellion (2000 AD), SelfMadeHero, Knockabout, First Second, Soaring Penguin, Centrala Books, Escape Books and more, while House of Illustration are running a series of workshops on board the barge. Then from 7pm to 8.30pm I will be interviewing Dave Gibbons, stellar writer and artist from Dan Dare and Watchmen to Martha Washington and Kingsman: The Secret Service, live from the barge. He’ll also be answering your questions, drawing live and signing limited edition prints of this Martha Washington pin-up (below) in aid of charities.

Come and join us for CanalCon - it’s going to be Extra-Terrestrial!
