Regular readers will already know we’ve been enjoying the art being shared on the Irish comics collective blog Eclectic Micks over the last while and that the Micks had decided to publish their very own sketchbook, drawing, no pun intended, on the artwork the seven of them take turns to post daily on the blog. I’m delighted to say the home turf Irish launch for the sketchbook will be taking place in the Dublin FPI branch (5-6 Crampton Quay, phone 0035 3167 10688) on Saturday 14th November from 3 to 5pm. Stephen Mooney (Angel; After The Fall), Will Sliney (Farscape), Stephen Thompson (Die Hard; Year One) Bob Byrne (Mr. Amperduke), Declan Shalvey (28 Days Later) and Nick Roche (Transformers) should all be present to talk to fans and sign copies, with a planned bash afterwards in the Twisted Pepper. The Irish comics scene has really been developing well in recent years and I hope if you’re in the area you’ll come on down and lend the boys some support.

They should also do one in Belfast, with PJ on his own.
