What have you done / what are you doing?
In the past I’ve made comics about sci-fi space stuff and viking warriors and alien chefs and various other nonsense, most recently I created a small piece of sequential art entitled Rocket Wizard - very subtle I know, hopefully I will be debuting this in print at Canny Comic Con. Other than my freelance illustration work I’m working on a few comic things at the moment but they are top secret so stop asking me about them!

Favourite comics character (other than your own)?
I’d say it’s a toss up between Corey Lewis’ ‘Sharknife’ and Brandon Graham’s ‘Earthling J.J. Catingsworth the 3rd’.

ROLLER GRRRLS

What have you done / what are you doing?

Anna Malady is the co-creator of ROLLER GRRRLS with Gary Erskine. The series follows the diverse [and sometimes chaotic] lives of the girls and women on three roller derby teams and how they deal with the difficult balance of sport and daily routine. Derby drama both on and off the track!

CCC2017 Guest: Terry Wiley

Who are you?
Terry Wiley (publishing as IDCM - I Draw Comics, Me!)

What have you done / what are you doing?
I used to do Sleaze Castle - which isn't very sleazy, it's an anagram of Castle Leazes! It's come out in big fat stumpy 500 page book form, with slim affordable 80-page book forms for the sub-sections, all from Markosia. Recently completed VerityFair, the story of a middle-aged party-hard actress and her search for a decent night's sleep! Fanfare distributors have copies of those in book form - and so do I! Currently have lots of little watercolour comic character portraits and a new mini-comic about Verity aged 1-31.

Kimiko Ross from Aaron Diaz's Dresden Codak is pretty awesome :)
