Thoughts on the ‘Bubble
20th November, 2009 - Posted by Chris
So it’s Friday, another week another blog post. I have made a pact with Steve Stone to hopefully encourage and remind each other to post something at least once a week. He has just posted his and so I thought I should pull my thumb out.
THE OBLIGATORY ‘2012:FINAL PRAYER’ PIMPAGE
Friday the Thirteenth is traditionally a day of bad portents and poor luck, fitting then that it should be the date that the ‘2012:Final Prayer’ anthology is released.
The anthology is now available from www.zaldiva.com
You can order a digital download at www.drivethrucomics.com by clicking this link:
You can also pre-order at Amazon (a small shipment of books have been shipped); and the book (both US and UK variant) will soon be available from Haven Distributors.
There has also been some further reviews/press with more expected in the coming few days.

THOUGHTBUBBLE IS HERE
Tomorrow I will be waking up at some ungodly hour to head to the train station and head to Leeds for this years ThoughtBubble comics festival.
ThoughtBubble last year was amazing and by all indications this years is going to be even better, following from this years B.I.C.S there are a few people who I need to say hello to again and some I need to meet for the first time.
I don’t know when conventions became more about meeting up with mates and fellow creators more than getting sketches and signatures.
Strange how things happen however that brings me on to…
COMICS GLORIOUS COMICS
The last two days I have finally had a chance to begin to sort out the many A4 printer boxes full of comics scattered around my flat. I am about 6 boxes down, the comics have been sorted and placed into nice comic long boxes. I have started with all the comics that are mine. The ones from 2001 onwards as opposed to the earlier ones I have inherited from my father.
Again it’s strange to realise just how my comic reading habits and tastes have changed over the years, I used to be a Marvel/TopCow nut and by the looks of it I had far too much money to spend on comics. I did find a nice stash of comics that I bought but have still not read yet.
For any nosey folks out there, here is a link to my ComicBookDB profile, as I say there’s still a lot more comics to add :

That’s all for now folks,
Hope to see some of you in Leeds tomorrow,
Chris
