SPX 10, fairy bunnies and robots

I went to the Small Press eXpo 10 this weekend and bought lots of goodies! Unfortunately I've been too busy to post about it till now. So here comes a sprinkling of my favourite buys...

As soon as I found 'The Gigantic Robot' book I fell in love! It is written and illustrated by Tom Gauld and is simply poetic and wonderfully graphic. What doesn't come across in my photos is that the book is printed in superb quality and just the tactility alone makes this purchase worth it!

My other favourite buy is a Swedish mystery graphic novel called 'mumiens blod' (the mummies blood) written and illustrated by Ola Skogäng (book seen at top) sadly I don't think it has been translated to English.

Dust-bunny nests in the wild are often connected, seeing as they are quite social creatures but easily scattered by the wind. This colony of nests for example, is linked by a string of lights. (because I’m sure you were wondering ;)
