Last Sunday I went to the Tetbury Comic Con.

I came across one of those Facebook advert posts, which are so targeted these days that they are pretty much always of interest.

This one was for a 1 day Comic Convention in Tetbury, with special guest Brian Bolland.

Now, I've seen Brian at a number of Cons over the years but there have always been long queues and with the need to man the Con table I've always missed out.

So here was an opportunity that I couldn't really miss, despite the 1.5 hour drive to get there.

A small Con with no TimeBomb table to worry about.

I was surprised by how easy it was to find, and how beautiful the village and its surrounds were.

It was a very small Con.

About 5 comic tables, about 3 times that of other stuff and yes, Brian Bolland.

It was nice to clap Brian's Life Time Achievement award, along with those for the guy who runs the Comic Museum in London and someone from Rebellion.

And it was nice chatting to the few guys in the queue.

Brian was nice to chat to, whilst signing my 7 2000AD collected books, the first Batman - Black and White book and a Judge Anderson poster I bought off him on the day.

I also picked up issues 1 and 2 of After The Robot Apocalypse, a fun little romp which is really nicely illustrated.

The journey home took an hour longer due to a road being closed and SatNav not understanding, or accepting, that this had happened, but it was a nice day out.
