Overview"At 3pm on Thursday, 16th October 2014 in the small market town of Kendal on the edge of the Lake District National Park, 7 artists entered a room and started to draw. By 9pm the following day 7 comic books were being collected from the printer to form part of the Lakes International Comics Art Festival taking place throughout the town that weekend! The inventor' of the 24 hr comic marathon, creator and commentator Scott McCloud (Understanding Comics, The Sculptor), was in attendance as was Festival patron Bryan Talbot (Tale of One Bad Rat, Grandville) and other show guests. The artists worked around the clock on coffee and smiles to produce ""a spread of seven comics as diverse as they are witty as they are beautiful to behold"". From witches to scribbles, paperclips to salty tales, hand-me-downs to chance encounters and doomed love, all were created in 24 hours by quality artists (in order of appearance) Sarah McIntyre, Joe Decie, Kristyna Baczynski, Fumio Obata, Jack Teagle, Warwick Johnson-Cadwell and finally curator and editor Dan Berry. Scott said of the event 'My favorite memory of the supremely memorable Lakes Festival was the intrepid band of 24-Hour comics heroes, toiling round the clock in the business center of our hotel. Their fantastic work was the true heart of the festival for me'. Fanfare and Gazelle part sponsored the event at the show and have now collected these 7 stories and present them in this beautiful hardcover anthology complete with a 16 page photo gallery of the day."
