I’ll be at the Auld Alliance Comics Festival at the French Institute in Edinburgh this Sunday 6th July, talking about the Glasgow Looking Glass. Did you know that Thomson and Thompson, the detectives from the Tintin comics are called Nisbet and Nesbit in the Scots translations of the books?

An unexpected pleasure this evening was meeting someone who appears in one of my true war comics. In ‘Raid on the Forth’, the little boy with his brother on the beach is Richard Demarco, co-founder of Edinburgh’s Traverse Theatre and long-time proponent of the Edinburgh Festival.

We’ve been delayed a bit for the talks and launch of the New Glasgow Looking Glass. There’s a police incident next door, but we’ve been assured that the guy threatening to jump from the scaffolding is not Scotland Manager Steve Clarke, after his team lost to Iceland last night. #ScotlandVsIceland

Had a great time at the Bruce Festival at the weekend. Jousting, battle reenactment and medieval village. I had my local history comics for sale while my son had his laser cut and 3D printed crafts.
