Though Bubble Main

 

Thought Bubble is the UK’s largest annual event which celebrates sequential art in all its forms, including everything from superheroes to independent and small press comics. We are a non profit making organisation dedicated to promoting comics and graphic novels as an important cultural art form. Taking place at a variety of venues across the city, our aim is to cater to both long-time comic book fans and those who have never picked up a graphic novel before.

Thought Bubble 2011 will take place 14th – 20th November with a centre-piece two day convention on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th.

2011′s festival will include free art and writing based workshops for young people and adults, panels and talks lead by industry professionals, and a programme of sequential art related film screenings. The special two day convention includes an incredible line-up of leading artists and writers, and over 300 exhibitor tables showcasing comics, art and merchandise. The weekend will also feature portfolio viewings and competitions. This promises to be one of the best events of its kind in the UK, where you’ll be able to meet some of your favourite comic book creators and browse the huge selection of memorabilia on sale – brought to you by the biggest and best exhibitors and dealers from across the country.
