Way back in November….all those months ago…..the Comics Anonymous Team hit the road……and even with a few “minor” car probs along the way we reached our 1st destination – Legacy Comics in Halifax. We got the chance to meet and interview Kieron Gillen (check it out here) on his recent foray into the Uncanny X-Men (reviewed here)…..and as a result of that visit we have a signed copy of issue #1 up for grabs…..

It’s a week until Christmas – but as far as we’re concerned we’ve been treated plenty already this year. Every Wednesday is like a mini Christmas Day, anxious to unwrap your pull list and discover what treats await. Today Craig tells us about the joy of rediscovering the X-Men and how 2012 will be much more mutant themed.

Those of you who have been following our Highlight’s feature will know that there’s been a few comic book creators that have really made our year am excellent one. We’ve had Matt Fraction, Mikel Janin, Jeff Lemire and Scott Snyder so far – so it’s Linsay’s turn to add another one to the pile.

The Comics Anonymous gang caught up with Kieron Gillen at Legacy Comics in the picturesque town of Halifax, the day before the Thought Bubble con. With copious interruptions, from shuffling, blushing schoolgirls clutching X-Men issues and swooning a little, to Gillen himself stopping to give Spiderman sweeties to little children (but not in a creepy way), it was a long, fun, milkshake-fuelled afternoon. We heard new phrases coined (’emotional contraceptives’ was a belter) and witnessed a short but intriguing philosophical examination of the creative writing process.
