STRANGEHAVEN AND MIXY SIGNING CONFIRMED

The next Comics Nation tie in event takes place next Saturday 17th September at ACE Comics stores at Southend and Colchester as award winning writer and artist Gary Spencer Millidge signs his third trade paper back of the critically acclaimed Strangehaven series, alongside Chronic Fatigue, creator behind the hit indie titles Wilderemere and Mixy.

GARY SPENCER MILLIDGE:
Born in London in 1961, Millidge attended Southend Art School and was extensively involved in UK comics fandom in the late 1970's and early 1980's, including the titles Amon*Spek and Comics News Monthly. In 1985 he published Food for Thought, an anthology to raise funds for Ethiopia whose contributors included Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, Bryan Talbot and Warren Ellis. He owned a comic shop for two years, played in various rock bands and finally began professional publishing with Strangehaven in 1995. His other work includes contributions to the anthologies Negative Burn, Meanwhile and The Simpsons, as well as writing the Alan Moore tribute book, Portrait of an Extraordinary Gentleman. He supports Chelsea, and resides in Leigh-on-Sea in the south east of England with his girlfriend, their Whippet and their Macaw. For more info go to millidge.com.

CHRONIC FATIGUE (C.F.)
C.F is a graphic artist who has drawing abominations for a few years now, which have resulted in tales of zombie infested carnage, skinless rabbits, angst ridden cannibalistic teenagers and many other less blood fuelled digressions. He also likes to paint and draw a lot in many differing styles, for personal projects and for those who wish him to inflict his art upon them in the form of album sleeves and other such... stuff. His comics include among others:

MIXY, about a 10 year old boy called Joe, who just wanted a pet who wouldn’t get run over and die. He chose a rather rotten looking rabbit, named Mixy. Unfortunately for Joe, Mixy wasn't exactly your normal pet rabbit... and so the misadventure begins, in a world that has forgotten the dead once rose from their graves, where zombie rabbits desire world domination, and little boys crave human flesh...

and...

WILDEREMERE, the tale of a small seaside town thrown into madness when a strange device falls on its shores. Melding 24 seperate universes together, the town is reborn - a frankenstienesque reality of many odd and ecentric inhabitants...
