Brodies Law Review: The Brodies Law guys from Pulp Theatre have a review up over at Silver Buller Comics!!! Go check it out.

Event Photos: Check out some photos of the event here. The event was pretty successful. Most people seemed to be having a good time poking about at the tables and such. There were plenty of people faffing about in the portfolio workshop, reading comics in the silence only comics reading room, and surfing the net on the shows two state of the art Windows 98 pc's. Everything got used, which was good. The most impressive part of the show in my opinion was the panel discussion. And when I say impressive, I mean it looked impressive, there were loads of chairs and they were all full of people listening to the panelists etc, it was a great turn out. As ever, I didn't get round to seeing everyone which i'm a bit miffed about as there were loads of people i've never met before. Note to self, prioritise chatting to those you've never chatted to before. In short, if I didn't chat to you its because I pontificated. However, I think most exhibitors had a good time and I know at least two maybe three exhibitors sold everything they brought with them!!! As time goes by i'll put more photos and video up, so stay tuned. ~ Pat, the organiser.
