Episode 54 - Shane Chebsey and Shrewsbury Comic Arts Festival!

Comic conventions are an integral part of being a small press creator, and this week marks the first time we talk to one of the hard working folk behind the events. Shane Chebsey, the man behind the Shrewsbury Comic Arts Festival and ICE events, joins the ACP crew to talk about the joys and perils of organising comic events. Theres talk of getting pro guests for events, the responsibility of convention organisers, people selling prints of other peoples characters and so much more. Its a great insight into the behind the scenes of event organising! Theres also talk of some awesome books you need to check out, Last of the Summer Wine, Dan brings out his pop culture guns, Vince expresses himself everywhere and Tony compares his hair to a golden waterfall. PLUS theres also some serious kazoo action. How can you miss that?!
