Congratulations to DOCTOR Bryan Talbot
Posted By John Reppion on July 8th, 2009
From www.bryan-talbot.com/news.html:
Bryan is being awarded an honorary doctorate for his “outstanding contribution to the Arts as writer and graphic artist” by Sunderland University. He says: “I’ve been saying that working on Alice in Sunderland was being like doing a Phd – not something I said lightly as my wife is a Phd and I saw first hand the sheer amount of work involved – it turns out now I was virtually doing one! The graphic novel did take a lot of time and one hell of a lot of research. I’m sure that the doctorate is mainly for producing this book, though they are going to cite the whole canon at the ceremony.”
The honour is well deserved and we wish him all the very best!

Bryan Talbot’s Grandville – coming October 2009
Posted By John Reppion on May 12th, 2009
Bryan Talbot is a man I could quite happily spend a good few hours in the pub with (in fact I have on several occasions which should explain the story about me and Charisma Carpenter which appeared in his book The Naked Artist) . He is also a genius and a fantastically talented artist who can, it seems, master any style he turns his hand to.
Some of you may remember that, back in the mists of time (well, June last year), I interviewed Bryan about his forthcoming graphic novel Grandville (amongst other things).
Well, now there’s a spangly trailer for the book on You Tube.
Personally, I really can’t wait to get my hands on this!
