Again, don’t worry if you’re not London-based, our online version still happens regardless. Our reborn “real world” event though continues the past tradition of rotating guest artists alongside our artist-in-residence Mark Stafford. Co-hosts are BF’s Andy Oliver and Gosh!’s Will Humberstone. The evening starts at Gosh! at 6.30pm with the three rounds of themed drawing taking place in The Royal George from 7pm onwards. Please note: seating is limited and priority will be given to those who meet at the shop. Work from the featured artists will be on sale on the evening.

So onto our artistic line-up for August…

Will Powers has produced experimental work that has featured a number of times at BF over the years. His abstract narrative Never Been Reborn, for example, or his Basil Wolverton pastiche in Space Wolf #1-3. Most recently we took a look at his very different vampire comic Blood Doughnut here. You can read an interview with Will at BF here.

Rachel Tubb is one of our Broken Frontier Six to Watch creators from 2023 whose work has featured in numerous WIP Comics anthologies. Rachel has an engaging, fluid cartooning style, as seen in her comic Metal Saga and her contribution to Asa Wheatley’s Sagas of the Shield Maiden series. You can read a full interview with Rachel at BF here.

Mark Stafford was a contributor to the 2016 Broken Frontier Anthology and is the Cartoon Museum’s artist-in-residence. He has been a frequent collaborator with writer David Hine including books like The Man Who Laughs and Lip Hook. His shortform work has been collected by Soaring Penguin Press as Salmonella Smorgasbord. Most recently he contributed to the Penguin folk horror anthology Bog People and SelfMadeHero’s Count Binface anthology.
