Comica Festival 2009

This weekend sees the launch of one of the world's most exciting comics festivals in the form of Comica, the London International Comics Festival. It's a London arts calendar highlight with a plethora of guests, many of whom rarely grace these shores.

Paul Gravett's Comica festival, presented in association with the Institute of Contemporary Arts, is in its sixth triumphant year. Its trans-continental line-up of talent - along with workshops, exhibitions, screenings and performances - have fast made it one of the most prestigious of shows to celebrate comics. It's fun, it's informative, it's inspirational, and it's an absolute must-do. Full details on the festival, with timetables and ticketing information can be found here. Don't miss the opportunity to meet the likes of Eddie Campbell, James Jean, David Lloyd, Tara McPherson, Will Linthout, Bryan Talbot, Cameron Stewart, Reinhard Kleist, Kevin O'Neill and many more!
