Plus many many more!

Any chance on convincing Gary Erskine or Alan Davis to come?

Alan would love to come, but he's in the states at the time. Gary has already confirmed. For the full guest list go to: www.thecomicsshow.co.uk/guests.htm

Great news on Gary Erskine (but he is not on the list on the site)

As the list on the main page has been updated several times since the partial list here, do we assume that Gary Erskine and Simon Bisley have dropped out? Neither of them have ever appeared on the main list as far as I can see.

It's a shame if they have - I wanted a Dan Dare sketch to go with the Mekon Gary drew for me last year

Apparently Gary has not confirmed, but will probably be there.

Simon has a table and will be promoting his new comic.

Something I should probably make clear: We only announce guests on the website who have said they will be appearing 100% confirmed.

Many creators say they will be there barring work comitments. We do not consider this a confirmed guest, and therefore do not list them on the site.

However, you can expect to see many creators at the show who are not listed on the website, some of them big names.

Hi I noticed that guys like Chris Weston or D'Israeli don#t have a specific table on the floor plan, nor are they listed in the signing session. Does that mean they will not come? From all other conventions with them I know they had their own artist alley table

Chris Weston has confirmed as a guest, but has not asked for a table or signing time.

D'Israeli has not registered as an attending professional, therefore we do not expect him to be coming, however, he's always welcome. I expect he has work commitments that clash.
