Comics for Valentine’s Day

Posted: February 14, 2011

To get you into the mood for romance, what are your favourite comics, manga or graphic novels about love? Over on Facebook, Peter Stanbury has asked people for their suggestions and is compiling a fascinating survey entitled Tell Me Something About Love. One of the chosen titles, quite rightly, is SelfMadeHero’s graphic biography Kiki de Montparnasse and you can meet writer and artist Bocquet & Catel at a special themed Valentine’s Day Dinner and book launch at Hardy’s Restaurant from 7pm Monday night.

And this February 14th is also the 25th Birthday of the classiest comics store in London, opposite The British Museum, Gosh! I still fondly remember their opening night celebrations back in 1986, the start of a new era in London comics. All this week Josh and his team are running a special sale and discounts to mark their first quarter century. Drop by and wish them many, many happy -  and romantic - returns!
