It wouldn’t be a proper year of comics without a Lou Scannon issue and we had #7 debut at this year’s Thought Bubble last month.

It feels like a while since I had my hands on a new issue of Lou Scannon but no matter how much time passes between those issues it’s always been worth the wait and after six consistent issues so far I was hoping that issue #7 would continue that momentum.

With Nottingham Comic Convention just a week away I thought I’d take a look at some of the small press that’ll be in attendance that I’d recommend folks keep an eye out for.

The first self-published title to make my list of highlights is Lou Scannon…..comedy gold in comic book form.

Last weekend saw Thought Bubble come to its annual climax as a week long celebration of sequential art ended with the 2-day comic con on the Saturday 23rd & Sunday 24th November…..and it’s safe to say that this event has become one of the most popular events in the Comics Anonymous calendar.

With the first five issues of Lou Scannon going from strength to strength (see #1, #2, #3, #4 & #5) – it was always going to be interesting to see what creators Jim Bampfield, Kris Carter & Dan Harris would do next with their sci-fi, comedy masterpiece.

Issue #5 of the so far impressive Lou Scannon arrived on my doorstep a few weeks back and somehow it seemed to slip through my “next-to-read” pile as I drowned in an influx of new issues. Wall-to-wall “must-reads” could stand in the way no longer as the intrigue of the creative teams Facebook comments “It’s very different” aimed in my direction had me wary of what to expect.

With 2012 bringing the Lou Scannon team a much deserved Eagle Award nomination and the first three issues (reviewed here – #1, #2 & #3) becoming an instant favourite with the Comics Anonymous team……….could they keep that momentum going with their 4th issue??

It’s no secret that the Lou Scannon title from Dan Harris, Kris Carter & Jim Bampfield is a favourite of mine – check out the reviews here: #1 & #2, #3. It’s a sci-fi comedy and more fun that many comics are able to pull-off on their best days. I got the chance to interview the guys and they even sent me through some exclusive preview art from issue #4 – Phazers set to FUN!

With issue #3 having recently made its debut at this year’s Cardiff Comic Con and making me curse the Con Gods who held London Super Con on the same weekend – my pre-ordered copy hit my door just a week or so ago. Having picked up issues #1 & #2 from the creators last year (and reviewing it here) my “go-to” comic for some escapism and fun had a new name….and it was a UK indie…..even better!
