Anzuelo Signing With Emma Ríos

Thought Bubble Festival and Gosh! Comics are very proud to announce a signing with the very talented Emma Ríos! Celebrating her brand new comic Anzuelo, the Eisner award winning artist will be joining us on Monday 18th November 2024, from 6-7pm. Emma's hand drawn watercolours are absolutely stunning in what we've seen of Anzuelo so far and we cannot wait to see it in its entirity!

Emma Rios is a cartoonist based in Spain. She shifted her focus to a mix of both architecture and work with small press publishers until working on comics full-time in 2007. Having collaborated with publishers like Marvel and DC, she was able to commit to working on her own creator-owned comics again since 2013, thanks to Image Comics, where she co-edited ISLAND and created I.D., MIRROR in two parts: THE MOUNTAIN and THE NEST with Malay cartoonist Hwei Lim, and where she currently co-creates the critically acclaimed PRETTY DEADLY with Kelly Sue DeConnick. The latter earned Ríos several Eisner Award nominations and a win for Best Cover Artist in 2020.

Thought Bubble is the Yorkshire Comic Art Festival! A week long celebration of comics, illustration and more spread across the whole of Yorkshire, finishing in a huge two day comic convention in Harrogate. We use our festival week to promote the power of comics! We believe they can inspire, educate and bring people together like no other medium, so whether you're a longtime fan of comic art or have never picked up a graphic novel before, you’ll find something for you.

Emma will be here after herThought Bubble appearance on Monday 18th November, from 6pm. Check out the incredible Thought Bubble Festival by clicking the link here!
