A signing
This Saturday (May 3rd) I am doing a Free Comic Book Day signing at Gosh Comics in London, between 1 and 2pm. The details are below. Perhaps I will see you there!
----
Are there any other matters I need to attend to while I'm here? Yes!
ITEM! I've restored the Bad Machinery archive to my own website now the GoComics run has finished. This includes all the dozens of pages I added for the print volumes, that didn't appear when the webcomic first ran, so there maybe is something new for you there.
ITEM! I'm currently working on the Savage Sword of Susan Summer Special, which will run in late June for eleven weeks. I'm not going to explain what it is. You'll just have to read it when it manifests. It's shaping up nicely already.
ITEM! I have another scheduled event in the UK, Macc-Pow in Macclesfield on Saturday June 28th. This is a very pleasant, chilled-out event that I exhibited at last year and am happy to recommend to readers in the northwest (and beyond!) I will write about this again later but you can always pencil it into your diary, lightly.
ITEM! I sent more Solver books to Topatoco last week, so it should be back in stock for readers in the US soon. They've also got Steeple volumes 1-3.
I leave you with the most powerfully monikered of all robots, a Japanese Transformer who I could not have named better myself.

Mr. Allison, you spoil us! ❤️😁
Sky Garry. Perfect.
14/10. No notes.
Alas, I am stuck here in California with it's damned earthquakes (also known as Land-Surfing. >>"DUDE! That was awesome!"<<) Thanks so very much for restoring Bad Machinery, absolutely every one of them a great story, packed with goodness and stiff upper lips!
I took this opportunity to re-read the first Bad Machinery volume and I think it has some of my favourite Allisonisms. "Don't forget the gravy!"
Did John lift this from a classic Chuck Jones-directed Looney Tunes? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lErQFdq8viw&ab_channel=ltclassics
I am so happy to have a (no shade to GoComics, sites gotta make money) less janky and ad-riddled way to re-read Bad Machinery!
Also, side note, but the first time I saw those pages you added to the end of "case of the fire inside" I had a nice little cry.
Shotbomber kinda looks like a UFO SHADO mobile, doesn't it?
Callback: detected
Ironic cause Sky Garry absolutely sounds like a name you’d come up with S: “There he is, Amy! The legendary SKY GARRY!” A: “Think he has a license to be in that airspace?”
It is reminiscent of, say, Super Derek.
Gosh is a wee bit outside my bailiwick, but I'll pop into Page 45 and pick up something of yours (at minimum I imagine) in solidarity.
