If you are going to be in the beautiful city of Barcelona in early June then you will have a chance to attend one of Europe’s fasting growing festivals.
The 23rd International Fair of Comics, which is being held from the 9th to the 12th June, is being moved to the Fira Barcelona after record numbers of people turned up for last years event.
The professional guest list is well balanced between both European and American comic professionals: Horacio Altuna, Fermín Solís, Manel Fontevila, Achdé, Bernie Wrightson, Michael Avon Oeming, Adam Hughes, Jim Starlin, Phil Jiménez and Gilbert Shelton are already confirmed to attend.
As well as the discussion groups there will be an extremely wide range of workshops that allow public participation. There is also a going to be a special children’s space and a hall devoted to Independent comics.
So if you are going to be in Barcelona this event might just be the perfect excuse to get out of the hot Spanish summer sun and mingle with some of your fellow comics fans.
To get you in the mood for you trip you could listen to Freddie Mercury singing his homage to the metropolis.
I have been a science fiction, comic book and animation fan for a very long time. I honestly believe that comics are an extremely vital and exciting art form whose true worth is only now beginning to be recognised in the mainstream media and this appreciation can only continue to grow in the future. I regularly write science fiction short stories and send them off to the magazines. So far their response has not exactly allowed me to give up my day job but I plan to keep plugging away at it..| 2.5 |
