Just to get in the mood for \u003Ca href=\"http://www.londonexpo.com/show_features/comic_village__expo.html\">MCM Expo this weekend\u003C/a>, Lauren came up with this \u003Ca href=\"http://starwars.jibjab.com/view/BLNkEQ0k4t4icfdH\">splendid film\u003C/a>, starring all of our studio mates: Gary, Ellen, Lauren and me. Come look for The Fleece Station in the \u003Ca href=\"http://www.londonexpo.com/show_features/comic_village__expo.html\">Comics Village\u003C/a> at London's ExCel Centre! And \u003Ca href=\"http://www.davidficklingbooks.co.uk/davidficklingbooks_dfclibrary.asp\">The DFC Library\u003C/a> will have a big booth with loads of stuff happening both days, with me, \u003Cb>Gary, the Etherington Brothers, Dave Shelton, Neill Cameron, Emma Vieceli, Adam Brockbank,\u003C/b> and \u003Cb>John Aggs\u003C/b>, possibly more. (Find out about us all over on the \u003Ca href=\"http://supercomicsadventuresquad.blogspot.com/\">Super Comics Adventure Squad\u003C/a> website!) Get the creators to draw in your copies of \u003Ci>Spider Moon, Mezolith,\u003C/i> and \u003Ci>Good Dog, Bad Dog\u003C/i> and watch the artists draw, collect badges, and a whole bunch of other great stuff. And I'm in a Draw-off competition, we'll see what happens there. ... So, are you going? :D\\r\n\\r\nI'm going to be selling copies of the \u003Ci>Birdsong/Songbird\u003C/i> anthology, \u003Ci>Dear Diary\u003C/i> mini comics, \u003Ci>You Can't Eat a Princess!\u003C/i> and \u003Ci>Morris the Mankiest Monster\u003C/i>. Plus, last time Gary and I started making nutty little watercolour paintings on the spot and charging a fiver (festival extreme special price), so if we're feeling feisty, we might do that again. \\r\n\\r\n\u003Ca href=\"http://starwars.jibjab.com/view/BLNkEQ0k4t4icfdH\">\u003Cimg src=\"https://images.jabberworks.co.uk/lj/fleecestn_starwars-2702cca263.jpg\">\u003C/a>.\\r\n\u003Ci>Click the pic to see our oh-so-fab film\u003C/i>\\r\n\\r\nAnd here are some lovely faces from the \u003Cb>Comica Social Club\u003C/b>, organised by graphic designer \u003Ca href=\"http://www.peterstanbury.com\">Peter Stanbury\u003C/a> which meets in London on the last Thursday of every month. The idea is that at least one person will always be wearing The Green Fez, so if people don't know anyone, they can find the person in the fez, who can then introduce them to other people. \u003Ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/group.php?gid=103005639736274\">Here's the Facebook page with details\u003C/a>. \\r\n\\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https://images.jabberworks.co.uk/lj/comicasocialclub-508c9712f5.jpg\">\\r\n\\r\nOne other cool thing, my friend Dan Brewer sent me a link to these fabulous Russian \u003Ca href=\"http://englishrussia.com/index.php/2010/05/27/russian-lord-of-the-rings/\">Hobbit illustrations\u003C/a>.
