I’ll be selling my own comics at this and I found a box of friends’ comix from a previous event so will be selling them on the community table (and sending the money to the creators of course)
There really are some great comics to discover

Come along on Monday (a week earlier than our usual schedules), because this will be great

(and personally because this skymonkey has to miss it for some personal duties, and would love to hear how the evening goes!)

Sorry that @cartooncounty.bsky.social has (for now, anyway) been defeated by zoom bombers. We’ve stopped streaming in the face of hardcore p*rn! Although thankfully all the interviews are later broadcast on @panelborders.bsky.social

Cartoonists launch Cartoonists For #Gaza to respond to the humanitarian crisis in #Palestine.

The artwork protests violence, calls for awareness, and demands action through visual storytelling and dissent.

Please consider signing: act.38degrees.org.uk/act/stop-isr...
Panel one: There's my avatar and I'm saying "I'm a quarter Jewish via my grandmother. A fact that has given me a certain sense of pride…" Panel 2: A shot of the train tracks leading to the Auschwitz death camp. The caption reads "…But I've never understood how a people so historically and presently persecuted…" A long shot of the illegal settlements with an Israeli flag in the foreground. The caption reads "…Could turn around and viciously persecute others due to an anachronistic belief that an area of land 'belongs' to them…" Panel 4: My avatar returns, this time angry, dressed in a Palestinian flag t-shirt and fist raised in solidarity saying "This genocide needs to stop and saner heads need to get around the peace table to give the Palestinian people their lives and dignity!"
