Trip to London

Jemma and I took a trip into London today, with everything going on in my family I hadn't managed to get her any Xmas present(s).

We did our usual Waterstones, GOSH Comics, Foyles (where we also had lunch) and then Forbidden Planet.

It was a very pleasant surprise to see copies of Quantum 7 on sale in Forbidden Planet, and I failed to find any copies in the 'unsold from last months' wall stock :o).

Oh, and 'Job Done', with regards Jemma's presents.

A few things...

Colin and I had a great day at the Manchester Mart yesterday. We each shifted pretty much all of the comics and GNs we took. These varied widely, from recent Marvel titles to more difficult to find independent titles.
Paul L. Mathews also popped over to discuss a future Accent UK project with us. We'll release more information at the beginning of 2014, but I'm really looking forward to seeing it develop.

Oh, and the marketing for Robot Shorts continues at a pace, with the Forbidden Planet blog giving it some great coverage.

Best of 2009 ....

Jason has listed Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man ? as his best comic of the year over on a report he did for Forbidden Planet. I've just come across it, skipping across blogs for the first time since Christmas ... I couldn't ask for a better start to the year. Thanks Jason.
