Dan’s too busy to write up his visit to the
Glasgow con so I, in my role as Best Girlfriend Ever, am doing it for him.
It’s a fairly small con but the guest list
was excellent – Rufus Dayglo, Alan Grant, Jon Haward, Grant Morrison, Frank
Quitely, Jim Starlin, John Wagner, as well as various small press publishers.

Dan before the crowds |
Loads of
people came for sketches and poor old Dan didn’t stop all day – 40 sketches by
3pm! Suffice to say, he was knackered by the end of it, but still a happy bunny.
