The Comicica Festival is starting to announce this year’s stunning line-up for the 9th London International Comics Festival, spreading across the month of November and across assorted venues all over the capital. And it doesn’t get much classier than welcoming Aline and Robert Crumb to make their only public appearance exclusively at Comica.
The Crumbs are in the UK to launch their collected autobiographical comics in an essential hardcover compendium Drawn Together, published in the UK by Knockabout Comics.
• Aline and Robert Crumb will be at Foyles in Charing Cross Road, London on Saturday 3rd November at 6.30pm.
