Bye Bye Thought Bubble in the Daily LITG, 13th of November 2023

I awake one final morning in Harrogate. Thought Bubble has been and gone, but it has left my bedsheets coveres with comic books.



Article Summary

  • Harrogate's Thought Bubble Comic Con winds down with a comic-strewn hotel bed.
  • Road to London includes a must-stop at Bettys after another successful event.
  • Daily LITG dishes on the hottest stories: Disney sets, DC returns, and Marvel's future.
  • Personal comic haul, cosplay galleries, and reflections of Thought Bubbles past shared.

I awake one final morning in Harrogate. Thought Bubble has been and gone, and the Majestic Hotel kicked us all out again last night. I believe some people will have words. And I have bought a lot of comics to schlep to London… via Bettys, of course. No matter what the world throws at you, at Bleeding Cool, you can still read all about comics, merch, TV shows, games, movies, and more. The Daily Lying In The Gutters remains a long-running run around the day before and the day ahead. You can sign up to receive it as an e-mail here. And here's a look at my AirBNB bed on the Saturday night, blessed with comics I'd picked up…
