My encouragement to read local this time is Kevin McHugh who's made some great books. My personal favourite is the kids books Timothy the dead boy. website below. kevinmchughart.com/shop/
He and his wife Jolene also run Hollow Hill Apparel which does some cool clothing. hollowhillapparel.com
Another encouragement to read Irish comics. @alnolan.bsky.social turn. I have his book Little Bram which is an enjoyable take on Bram Stoker. Cant find it to buy online anywhere but Alan's latest work an adaptation of the novel 17 Martin Street is available on Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/17-Martin-St...
For this encouragement to read small press comics I am going to highlight @zarjaz.bsky.social which is a 2000ad fanzine which recently restarted. It has plenty of creators from around the UK and Ireland involved. You can buy copies of all the volume 3 progs from zarjazvol3.blogspot.com?m=1
Some nostalgia for this encouragement to read small press comics. The cork comic creators have link where you can download some of their anthologies from years ago. (Including the 1 I was in) All worth a read. Also go to their Instagram to check out what they are up to now. corkcomiccreators.itch.io
Another shout out to a great creator from the Irish Small Press scene. This time for @jameskillian96.bsky.social who's book Kill your Idols I picked up at @dublincomicarts.bsky.social and is a really good read and has amazing art. Check out his website jameskillian.myportfolio.com
Another shout out for an Irish Small Press Artist. This time for @bozmugabe.bsky.social who I bought a book from at @dublincomicarts.bsky.social. Really enjoyed The Incinerator and found it really funny. Really like the art style too. Check this book and his other out on his website bozgallery.com
All set up for @dublincomicarts.bsky.social with my stuff plus Patrick Brown's and @sector13comics.bsky.social. let's do this!!!
Another shout out to an Irish Comic creator this time to @vimtheartist.bsky.social & Georgia Leavy for Lime & Lemons&Lemonade. Both really enjoyable books. Lime has the same vibe as peanuts to me. They also have a new book called Porter Loves Cleo. Gumroad link below. lemonsandlemonade.gumroad.com
Got my table for @dublincomicarts.bsky.social on Sunday will be selling my stuff plus @sector13comics.bsky.social and Patrick Brown. Let's do this.
No worries Andrew. Hopefully I can make it on Saturday but if not I will definitely be purchasing a copy at some point.
Another shout out for Irish Small Press creators. This time @apope.bsky.social & the rest of Local Colour comics. Low Intensity is a great anthology with fantastic stories from start to end. Can be bought at localcolourcomics.bigcartel.com. Also Andrew is launching his new book this week. Info below
No worries. Completely understand you got a 9 to 5 to do on top of all he content. Keep up the great work.
Really enjoyable episode. Don't usually have the time to watch these (which is why I like your reviews so much as they are the perfect length for me). Glad I got this one though.
True. Works for me as I'm usually on my own at cons so can't have too much extra to carry that isn't the product I'm selling.
Relatively simple set up of two stand, price list and table cloth. Not terribly fancy by works for me.
Thanks Chris just seen it made it's goal with 1 hour to go :)
Great to do with myself just think it is a great project that I would like to see completed.
Thank Chris. Hopefully this gets a late surge and meets its target. Nothing to do with me just think it looks great and I think it should get made. #indiecomics #kickstarter #zombiecomics
No worries. Just wanted to see if I could give these guys a boost to help them meet their target.
I just backed RADIO DREAD Issue #1: Hymns From The Grave on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/har...
@longboxpunk.substack.com this might be something you would like perhaps?
Just another recommendation from the Irish Small Press comic scene. This time it is @detectiveken.bsky.social and it great book A sides. Really enjoyable read. Available online at his ko-fi shop (link below) along with his other books.

At Monaghan Comic con today to sell of my comics along with @sector13comics.bsky.social and Patrick Brown's. Let's do this.
Glad to hear it. Looking forward to reading when I get the chance. Hope you didn't mind the reference to Darkam Vale (if you know what that is).
Time to recommend another Irish Small Press comic. This time it's @jishjeshjosh.bsky.social with Skull Punch which is a great book which reminds of an old comic called Darkam Vale. Can be bought from Josh's website skullpunch.bigcartel.com
Or you can also get it at my LCS We Sell Heroes in Comber
Haha surprisingly I have never really been interested in reading any wrestling comics despite my interest in both comics and wrestling. How about you?
Haha mine are the exact same.
Shout out to another Irish Small Press comic is for when language fails by @colinomahoney.bsky.social & @rolinmari.bsky.social. Fantastic comic and I think Colin writing and Mari's art match each other perfectly. Only place I can see it can be bought atm is vibes and scribes' website.
Time for another shout out from little old me to an Irish Small Press crator. This time it is @drawboyseanie.bsky.social and his series Chump. Great little series of jokes and gags which I find very enjoyable. You can grab a copy from his Etsy store. www.etsy.com/ie/shop/Draw...
Time to highlight another great Irish Small Press creator. This time Hugh Madden who has some great stuff which you can but from @littledeercomics.bsky.social and from the below links.

Time highlight my second person from the Irish Small Press scene. This time it's @paulcarroll.bsky.social and everyone who has worked for @limitbreakcomics.bsky.social. They have some fantastic comics available on their website & people should check them out. Below is an example of Paul's con table.
