It's' back for a 3rd year and we've secured a table space for ARK Comics once again.
So for our Northern brethren and those who want a day trip to Darkest Fife!

Next weekend, I (and hopefully) Burns will be manning the table for ARK.
Comics, sketchbooks and prints aplenty...hopefully.
Come one, come all.

Disappointing.
Pleasing to see so far all the comments about it are supportive and not moany.
These things happen, mostly gutted I can't catch up with various folks and see Colin MacNeil in his hat.

It is sad to see it cancelled, but it is good to see that people understand the reasons why it had to be done. The reaction I've seen on social media has been pretty positive given the circumstances.

Folk are clubbing together to help the organisers. It's not run by a faceless company. It's a family trying to raise money via the con to support literacy in schools. Nice to see humanity being decent. www.gofundme.com/savedunfermlinecomiccon-Ralph |

Yeah, I chucked in my Table fee again to this.
Some auctions as well on Ebay with some nice rare artwork.
Weather permitting will be in the shop tomorrow and pick up some comics.

It is a very pleasant comic shop and I have bought a few things from time to time and the service was friendly and polite. Their Free Comic Book Day event last year was well run.

If you fancy helping Dunfermline Comic Con and getting something marvelous for your troubles. dogoodercomics.bigcartel.com/product/pirate-fun-the-first-trialIt's the sequel to Dungeon Fun - which is probably one of the best all-ages comics to have come out in decades. Pitch perfect humour for kids and adults, without resulting to knowing innuendo hidden in there for the grown ups. You can get a signed and sketched version for a tenner plus a couple of quid postage. Andy |

The GoFundMe campaign is doing well - it's passed £10k in the space of a couple of days.
