Don't know how many comic fans we have here (at least that would be hardcore enough to travel overseas for a convention wink), but I thought I'd post this up anyways, in case anyone was interested - it'd be great to finally meet some if ye if you do fancy coming along smile

It ought to have been being as it's pretty much the biggest one around! wink
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.
