Click here to register for Comics Forum 2018 through Eventbrite.

Comics Forum 2018 is the tenth anniversary of the annual conference series. To celebrate this milestone, scholars are invited from around the world to join us for a two-day series of talks looking back at the subjects Comics Forum has focused on over the past decade and considering how they have changed and developed. We would love for you to join us!

At the Eventbrite link you can buy tickets for 1 Day, 2 Days or a special offer that gets you 2 days of Comics Forum followed by a 2 Day Convention Pass for Thought Bubble on the 22nd and 23rd September. This will save you £4 on the price of the convention pass (RRP £28)!

We’re also delighted to be hosting Seriously Into Comics: A Workshop for Comics Studies Graduate Students and Early Career Researchers on Wednesday 19th September. Tickets for this are £6 and can be added to your order through Eventbrite.

Seriously Into Comics will include the following events:

1230: Welcome (Hattie Kennedy)
1245: Before a PhD (Speakers TBC)
1345: Break
1400: During a PhD (Ian Horton and Ian Hague)
1500: After a PhD (Joan Ormrod and Maggie Gray)
1600: Networking & Refreshments

Each of the the three main sessions will include around 30 mins discussion by the session leads, and 30 mins opportunity for discussion and questions. Sessions will look at how you might get started in PhD research, network and develop contacts, build a publishing record, get involved with conferences and look for a job and early career researcher (ECR) opportunities.

We look forward to seeing you in Leeds!
