Thought Bubble to premiere Sea Mouse #2

Thunderous fanfare! Sea Mouse #2, after many delays, is at last imminently out, and will be premiered at the Thought Bubble comics convention this month in Leeds, UK! Specifically in the convention hall at the Royal Armouries on November 19th and 20th.  Sea Mouse contributors Ian Cockburn and Robert Brown will have a table to showcase both issues of Sea Mouse plus Robert's new solo comic Killjoy #1. Plus (we think) back issues and/or special taster volumes of our previous projects Dream Logic (Robert) and Dishes (Ian).

Here's the website for the event, which is linked to the Leeds International Film Festival and also features workshops, forums and Lord knows what:
It's in it's 5th year and this year features an appearance by the legendary Posy Simmonds plus Tim Sale, Adam Hughes, Jeff Lemire and many more.
You will find details about the Royal Armouries part of the farrago under "Exhibitors".

Here's a taster of what to expect from our sophomore edition:
