Earlier that Saturday between 2pm and 4pm he’ll also be signing at the London comic shop Gosh!. More…
Here’s what people are saying about Eddie’s Alec series:
“Alec is magic, and even if I knew how all of it was done I’d be doing you a disservice if I pointed out the wires and mirrors… It is written by someone who obviously finds being alive an endless source of novelty and conundrum.” - Alan Moore
“Do you need me to tell you how good Eddie Campbell is? Or that Alec is probably the best book-length comic about art and wine and midlife crises and families and friends and wine and love and art and saying goodbye and terror there is?” - Neil Gaiman
