Expect lots of announcements tonight from Eric Stephenson's address to open Image Comics Expo. Sadly, I'll be in bed when that's happening Which means they've still got plenty of time to set up. Here's how the show is looking right now, from our Bleeding Cool man on the floor, Mat Nastos. Please people, just buy me stuff[...]

I attended the MCM London Expo this weekend Met up with friends, found some cool stories, saw lots of cool comics, costumes and finery and my two daughters enjoyed themselves too But not everyone seems to have had a great time. Ian Sharman is a comic book creator who has created his own mini-publishing empire as[...]

Naturally Rufus will be there, also with the likes of Gail Simone,  John McCrea, David Hine, Hunt Emerson, Al Davison. And me, probably Well, it is my local. This is Rufus Dayglo's Tank Girl[...]

Are there any other venues you could have chosen? Earl's Court would have been really handy for me… To provide an American style convention one needs to have the space and facilities to host and grow the show. The Excel centre is London's most viable venue, and although we did look at other sites[...]

So I took the kids to Comic Con. They loved having photos taken "with princesses", they drew on the Artist tables and they charmed convention organisers

BBC3's The Fades was previewed for the first time at the MCM Expo London today The footage shown involved ghosty things, old men, sexy women, yoots, people with guns, and lots and lots of shadows Oh and someone vomiting a live moth. They were also handing out these flyers Courtesy of my scanner, consider this a[...]

Has to go THIS WEEK! Just to remind, here is TokyoPop's stall at MCM Expo this weekend; This is how a comics publisher ends, not with a bang but with a whimper. And selling the company's neon sign on Craigslist Huge TOKYOPOP neon logo sign, used as the official hallsign at the TOKYOPOP US office. Dimensions: Width:[...]

So the Preview Day at MCM London Expo It's more of a meet and greet today, a chance for an extended set up as people without jobs come to the show. However, Emma Vieceli is in her tiara, Tony Lee and Dan Boultwood are in their waistcoats, Harry Markos is trying not to get thrown out,[...]

We've already had one Comic Con War in London this year, what with Kapow and MCM London Expo blasting each other in the spring with rather pointed press releases and comments. Kapow PR, often via Mark Millar, deliberately ignored MCM, as if it didn't exist, proclaiming a uniqueness for Kapow over a number of attributes that[...]

Feathers were ruffled, and the tension, well you could say it was electric! While the motion comic isn't launching until October, a preview will make its debut at MCM London Expo next month. Written by Leah Moore and John Reppion, designed by Emma Vieceli, drawn/animated by the all-female Windflower Studio, and produced by Hattrick[...]

And suddenly MCM London Expo in the Docklands jumps up and say "look at us!" Bleeding Cool has already covered the passive aggressive war between the two London shows, but things had settled of late But with Kapow continuing to claim that it's bringing San Diego Comic Con to London, while MCM thinks that's what they'd[...]

I'm not going to MCM London Expo today Oh I want to, don't get me wrong, but something (possibly in a bacon sandwich from the Fox pub) has seen me struck down with vomiting, shakes, diarrohea and the rest Bleeurghh. The Eagle Awards went off well Damn you CBR! I was very pleased to see Freakangels[...]

The MCM London Expo I used to be terribly snobbish about this sort of media/cosplay fair and had some bad experiences when young Then I went to this one and everything changed You get caught up in the joy, the love, the fact that there are stacks of seventeen year old women buying their first[...]
