My Dad Fights Demons Launch Party With Bobby Joseph and Abbigayle Bircham

We're thrilled to host a launch party for My Dad Fights Demons! We welcome to the shop UK comics legend and current comics Laureate Bobby Joseph, along with the incredibly talented artist Abbigayle Bircham, on Saturday 20th September 2025, from 7-9pm. Here's some words from publisher SelfMadeHero about the book:

A diverse Young Adult graphic novel about the misadventures of a down-on-his-luck teenager and the dimension-hopping, demon-battling sorcerer who just happens to be his absentee father.

Welcome to Rye’s world: their stepdad hates them, their mother ignores them, and they’re stuck in a dead-end relationship. To make matters worse, their world is turned upside down one day with the return of their father, the Magical Mr Mantrikz, self-styled “greatest sorcerer in the world”, and Rye now has to spend their weekends with this rude, pushy, and frankly ridiculous wizard. And that was never going to work – especially when magic is involved…

Meet Bobby and Abbigayle on Saturday 20th September, from 7pm. You can pre-order a signed copy of the book from our website by clicking the link here.
