KIRUCOMICS @ LFCC - JINN DETECTIVES (#WHERESHANI)

Kirucomics was at the LFCC this past weekend telling the world about "Jinn Detectives" and selling our one-shot graphic novel "Champion of Dema". It was a wondrous weekend.

We had a blast and met many awesome individuals. The kirucomics team created a buzz at the convention, we had Hani at the convention in the flesh. Then we made him go missing within the large throng of people and challenged the fans to find him and take a picture with him, tweeting with the hashtag #WheresHani. 

When they found Hani, he would inform them about who he was and what he was doing. Which was that he was a supernatural detective from the Jinn Detectives chasing after a particularly mischievous Jinn that had taken shelter at the convention.

This way not only were we able to inform people about this new comic series but we also made it fun and interesting for the people :).

We also enjoyed networking, selling hard copies of the "Champion of Dema" graphic novel and taking portrait commissions. All in all it was a successful weekend.

LONDON SUPER COMIC CON

We had an amazing time at the London Super Comic Con this weekend. Kirucomics were there to both promote our upcoming graphic novel; Champion Of Dema and also socialize with people from the comic community. We met many awesome guys, like the fans, fellow comic makers and of course amazing cosplayers.

We thought we’d share our experience with you through some of the photos we managed to take.

A fun time at the London Excel.

We want to say a great big thank you to Emily Peacock for sharing her table with us, she was a wonderful partner to have for the weekend. And also another thank you to the London Super Comic Con for having us.

It was a fun experience and we hope to be back soon.

Now that we’ve finished here, back to Champion of Dema we go. Many people are still waiting on the finished book and we are trying to make that happen as soon as possible. The novel is almost done, we’re just putting the finishing touches on before sending it off to the printer. So don’t worry guys. The book is coming very soon.

Yellow LFCC was an educational experience

The London Film and Comic Con, attended by Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Jason Mamoa (Khal Drogo), Lena Headey (Cersie Lannister), David Hasselhof and yours truly. Yes it was an event filled with celebrity and the biggest was none other than moi ;p...

Yours truly enjoying episode 1 of Jinn

Hammer time... oh oh 

Successful MCM... Now looking forward to LFCC

So for the first time KIRUcomics attended the london MCM expo in May and we had an amazing time. We truly enjoyed the event, made new friends, sold some comics, had fun but most importantly of all we got the word out there.

Amazing fans purchasing a hardcopy of JINN

We were there doing our best to make sure everyone at least knows about us and spreading our work all over London and the UK (and hopefully all over the world). I'm glad to say we sold out of Episode 1 of Jinn, and most people that enjoyed 1 came back for 2 and 3... it was truly a successful weekend.

SHAMBLES! Law holding on to his own copy of JINN

Another awesome fan with a copy of JINN

But our work isn't done... even though May was successful, we didn't do nearly enough in spreading the word. That's why we are going to be at the London Film & Comic Con  (LFCC) this weekend in Earls Court screaming at the top of our lungs (metaphorically of course) so every can hear us. There are so many Manga lovers out there and we shall not rest until every single one of them have heard about KIRUcomics.

Remember our first ever blog entry (called The Declaration): "WE're going to make you all love MANGA mwuhahahaha… by the time We're done, people that never imagined they could enjoy a comic will be hooked on mine like angry birds."

JINN AT LONDON MCMEXPO

Yep, that's right! This weekend, I'm going to be the MCM expo selling hard copies of JINN Episode 1 to 3 for all those that want a copy (and that's everybody, you all just don't know it yet).

Unfortunately I wasn't quick enough to book a table at the comic village so missing one of those, I had to find another table (which was a hell of a lot more expensive). Regardless of all that, I'll be in N7 behind a KIRUcomics banner selling my comics so come check me out... right next to ajiey media (we're sharing the crazy expensive table).

Just to show you that i'm serious about being there this time you can see my preparations
