Comica news – Graphic Short Story prize announced & Campbell and Brown in conversation

Comica-09-poster

Okay, the Comica festival happens all the way through November and full details are up at the Comica website. But here’s a recent announcement we wanted to share with you.

Just confirmed is the news that Eddie Campbell (Alec, From Hell) will be in conversation with Scottish pioneer of stand-up comedy, Arnold Brown at Comica on Saturday 7 November between 7pm and 9pm. More details here…

Eddie’s reaction?: “Brilliant. That’s somebody I’d like to meet, but I should be interviewing HIM.”

Eddie Campbell “in conversation” with alt-comic Arnold Brown is certainly an unusual choice but seeing as Brown’s a wonderful comedian and Campbell’s well known as a great raconteur it might well be an unmissable experience.
