Hard to think its's already a week since Free Comic Book Day at Scott's Pops & Comics in Warrington! So much planning goes into events such as this that they do just pass in a blur!

That said we're delighted to confirm that it was a great success, larger crowds than last year, more artists, more sales and many, more smiles as people discovered and re-discovered the joys of comics and chatting with some artists, independent and professional who make them.

Scott also had more help (thanks Becky, Karen & Pete!) so was able to properly act as 'mine host' and circulate with the artists, fans and shoppers, just keeping an eye on things, helping out here and there and enjoying the day too.

It seemed to be a more relaxed affair than with a pretty steady footfall throughout the day, avoiding the busy 'bottleneck' we had last time when it seemed everyone came at the same time. Scott probably had almost 50% more free comics than last time too and they virtually all went on the day so we know it was considerably busier, so all good and hopefully folk are enjoying what they picked up.

As ever, we almost forgot to take photos until almost the end of the day and even then a couple of the artists managed to hide from the camera, but something to remember the day by.

Same time and place next year?
