It ought to have been being as it's pretty much the biggest one around!
By the way, forgot to mention, for those in the UK, if you feel Dublin's a bit of a trek for a drinking session comic convention, you might be interested in Thought Bubble in Leeds on the 15th instead with many of the same guests.
