Angus & Felix Comic Book Launch & Exhibition

On Saturday the 17th of August at Drop the Dumbells in Liverpool, Katie Craven is launching her serial comic book, Angus and Felix, an entirely original work which in her own words is; “A story, which highlights the current obstacles & anxieties of being a young adult & finding your place in the world.”

For her next trick, Katie is launching her serial comic book, Angus and Felix, an entirely original work by Miss Katie Craven, which in her own words is;

At the launch each frame from the first edition will be presented as an A2 print, displayed around the walls of Drop The Dumbells. This method of display creates an interactive element to the project as you amble about amongst the story.

The final frame of episode one will take the form of a gigantic mural painted across one of the huge walls of the space.
