Come say hello at Table 66 at the Hilton Double Tree Glasgow 2nd August @sequential-scot.bsky.social . I look a wee bit like Lorcan from Stramash except I am shorter and have no scar and if my face is red it’s poor diet not an artistic choice. There are a load of other exciting exhibitors as well

In the wake of SDCC, I'm thinking over the use of these TCC/EnglishmanSDCC accounts and how I'm going to be using them going forward. I'm going to be unfollowing Exhibitors and Artists on this account and following purely Conventions and organisers, so I can better share their news and updates.

WHO will I see this weekend bc
