A peaceful night-time picnic in the woods. What could go wrong…?

If comics are to survive in the UK I strongly believe it'll be through books like this and independent comics. Forget any nostalgic hopes of seeing racks of comics in newsagents again. That was the 20th Century way, and today's news trade just isn't interested. The future is in bookshops, mail order, and specialist stores (and digital, although I don't think that's caught on as much as predicted). Whatever direction comics take, give them your support.
