Back in March, Jump Leads was represented at the UK Web & Mini Comix Thing '08 by myself, Euan and Paul, as well as the young and incredibly enthusiastic "Honorary Teammember For The Day", Rowan. In the coming '09 event our presence is going to be even better. How many of us do you think will be there?
Oh, how about all of us?
I'll be flying in from the States. Issue #3 writer Euan Mumford will be there, as will Issue #5 writer Paul Varley and, hopefully, Issue #6 writer Andrew Taylor. But perhaps the most important appearance will be none other than the Jump Leads artist himself, JjAR, who is planning to fly in from Russia for the event! (Although, as a word of warning, that could change. Watch this space should there be any alterations to the line-up.)
What will we be doing? Well, I imagine there will be books to sell. We are maybe as soon as two weeks away from the publication of the first Jump Leads trade paperback, Tales From The Flurry. We also have a few copies of the limited print run of Issue #1, which will be available on a First Come First Serve basis, as well as the usual tee-shirts (we hope to have some brand new designs ready for the Con).
We'll also be having a Silent Charity Auction. I will be bringing one poster for each of the covers for Issues #1, #2, #3 and the impending #5. JjAR and I will sign all four, the Issue #3 cover will be signed by writer Euan Mumford, and the Issue #5 cover will be signed by writer Paul Varley. There will also be a poster of the top panel of Issue #4 Page 2 (the first time Meaney and Llewellyn are seen with their new appearances) signed by the entire team. All five pieces will be auctioned separately (as opposed to one bid for all five) and the proceeds will be donated to the charity or charities of our choosing (we're still discussing who to donate it to). So that's nice.
Live in the US and can't make it across the pond to see us? Don't fret - it looks very much like I'll be at both Wonder-Con and the San Diego Comic-Con in '09. I'll try to have something as cool as the auction for these conventions too.

It goes up next Friday. We have a week of Filler Material to go up first. Posted by Paul Varley on November 17th 2008 @ 1:48pm GMT
Do we? :p Posted by Ben on November 17th 2008 @ 5:41pm GMT
Well that was the plan. The guest strip i was waiting on didn't arrive. I'll do something interesting for tomorrow. 
I'm also looking forward to my issue going up; I'm not sure if it starts on Friday or if there's going to be another filler week first, but either way, I hope you all enjoy it!
