I've just received an email from Mark over from the Richmond Gallery, and he's sent me new information about sending your art to be part of the gallery. Best thing is, comics are allowed! The first news about it was back at the start of October. Added another review just today, of {ln:Marraquai} by {ln:Ben Dickson} and James McKay. Worth checking out.

Finally, this Saturday at Camden Market, {ln:David Baillie}, {ln:Oli Smith} and the guys from {ln:Tales From the Flat} (possibly with others) will be selling their comics. So go down and check them out! It's aiming to be a regular thing, too. David will be selling his Tongue of the Dead trades, which contain a quote by yours truly. Worth it just for that!

Through its annual open exhibition opportunities, Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham helps artists both locally and nationally to showcase their work in group exhibitions. In 2006-7, over 500 individual artists (excluding those participating in Arthouse) exhibited work in a range of open exhibitions across three galleries - Orleans and Stables Galleries, Twickenham and the Riverside Gallery in Richmond. Since 2005, there have been 4 exhibitions dedicated to or incorporating comic art. Deadline end of January 2008.

In 2008, we have further opportunities for you to submit artwork for the second of our comic open exhibitions. We are seeking original artwork (digitally created work is accepted) and printed comics by up-and-coming and established artists who are self-published or work for small-scale or independent publishers.

• Artists can submit up to 5 original works (and 5 comics) either via A4 sized photographic prints, colour printouts or high-resolution jpegs submitted on CD. Original artwork is not accepted. Comics can be submitted.

• Please clearly label each submission with: artist’s name, title of work, publication, date, media, approximate size and price before commission if the work is for sale (the gallery will add on an additional 40% commission to the artist’s price).

• In addition, please enclose contact details, an artists statement and if possible a CV.

• There is a £10.00 administration charge (which also contributes towards exhibition costs); £7.50 concessions (please include proof). Please make cheques payable to ‘L.B.R.U.T’. Your submission will not be accepted without payment.

• If you would like images or comics returned, please enclose a stamped self-addressed envelope.

Successful artists will be contacted by email or in writing approximately two weeks after the deadline.

Hello again everybody. I've just read Tom Humberstone's 24 Hour comic, and it's a very good read. Considering the circumstances he's created a great short comic, and I commend him for tackling the topic he did. If you'd like to read the comic, visit www.VentedSpleen.com, and check out the two editions of his column under our Articles section!

We've added {ln:Monkeys with Machineguns} to the Publishers/Comics section, and a couple more reviews, too. Just below you'll see Andy Winter's second column, too. Expect a lot more content coming up in the next few weeks!

And {ln:Tales From The Flat}'s new collected edition (issues #1-3) is now available for purchase from their website! modernmonstrosity.moonfruit.com
