One for all you Comic Con enthusiasts out there… Sheffield Comic Network is bringing the Steel City its very own micro Comic Con to Kelham Island this December!
The event is hosted by comic book guru Bambos Georgiou, who has worked with the likes of Marvel and DC Comics. Not only will you have the chance to meet the industry legend himself, Georgiou, but there will be further creative guests who have contributed to comic strips such as Wallace & Gromit, The Bash Street Kids and Nick Fury Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Sonic the Hedgehog artist Carl Flint will be doing sketches and Anno Dracula artist Paul McCaffrey will be at the venue signing limited edition, hand coloured prints for the first five people who turn up with the graphic novel or the complete comic series.
Along with zines and prints by local artists and talents (we’ve got to support our own, right?), The Gardeners Rest Pub will also be home to a ‘snug’ which will be showing the black and white films Captain America and El Santo vs The Martian Invasion throughout the afternoon.
The micro Comic Con takes place on Saturday 2nd December at The Gardeners Rest Pub, Neepsend Road. The event is free and will be running 12-5pm. facebook.com/sheffieldcomicsnetwork
