Comic Book Funny 2009

It's on every Saturday during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival; 5pm, Bella Union bar at Trades Hall (corner Lygon and Victoria St, Carlton).

Week two (Sat April 11): a very special Intimate Conversation between long-awaited interstate guest Gerard Ashworth and local comics broadcaster John Retallick (http://thecomicspot.blogspot.com/).

Week three (Sat April 18): Pat Grant (http://www.patgrantart.com/) and Brisbane's Patrick Alexander (http://www.chickennation.com/) discuss the merits of dirty comics with host David Blumenstein.

Week four (Sat April 25): Bernard Caleo launches THE SEXY MEN OF AUSTRALIAN COMICS 2009-2010 FINANCIAL YEAR CALENDAR, featuring twelve hot male Australian comic artists as drawn by female Australian comic artists.
