Article: London Super Comic Convention - A First-Year Report

Posted: May 10, 2012

The UK comic convention season is now in full swing, following last month’s first Spring Comica Comiket Independent Comics Fair in London. This coming weekend, Cambridge hosts its first dedicated festival, CamCon with some superstar guests, while the Bristol Comics Expo bounces back, after a few rather compromised years divided between two limited-entry hotels, and reoccupies the spacious Passenger Shed at Brunel’s Old Station with room enough for all.

And throughout May there are more big weekend events to come in London, from the second Kapow! Comic Convention at the Business Design Centre, Angel, on May 19th & 20th to the Institut Français’s second BD & Comics Passion Festival in South Kensington from May 24th to 27th, as well as another gigantic London MCM Expo filling ExCel in Docklands from May 25th to 27th. So, keeping in the convention spirit, here’s my report from a brand new one launched in London earlier this year. Read my new Article on the first London Super Comic Convention here…
