Things are moving along at a blinding pace already for Auto Assembly 2008! No sooner have we announced the convention, that we're now able to announce our first guest!

We are pleased to announce that once again we will be joined by comic artist Simon Williams who will be making his fourth appearance at Auto Assembly. Simon has recently started working for IDW on some of their Transformers titles and doing some work for SFX magazine and is hoping once again to work on one of our exclusive postcards.

Also joining us will be Lew Stringer. Lew's work will be known to fans of the original UK comics published by Marvel when Lew wrote and illustrated the "Combat Colin" backup strip that appeared in the comic. Lew will be making his first and long-awaited appearance at Auto Assembly in 2008!

As always, all of our guests will be appearing subject to work and personal commitments.

Simon and Sven

No Furman yet?

I'm actually.. Not excited.. but something halfway there, that Lew Stringer is coming. I'm going to demand a Combat Colin TPB.

Oh, as for other guests, I'm waiting for replies from 7 others at the moment including Furman and Wildman, a voice actor and several others. It's just that I wanted to make an announcement as soon as we had the date confirmed so I got things moving as quickly as I could and Simon and Lew were the first to say yes!

Stringer was supposed to be coming in 2006 as well though, so I won't believe it till I see his ar$e in a seat at the event!

Nope, Lew's only ever been scheduled to appear once before and that was in 2001. It was Geoff Senior who couldn't make it last year!

Someone told me Stringer was going to be last year, just a shame I can't remember who the lying swine was. Of course I'm not going to argue with you, given that you book the guests!

I'm going to bring a few copies of Viz for Lew to sign.

A signed 'Tranny Magnet' comic strip will look great framed in the living room of chez WaR.

Not hot on him being a 'guest'- isn't he just a random fan who got given the chance to do some colouring?

Either way, I'll have to ask him not to colour things so ridiculously bright in the future.

I demand the entire BW cast!

At the very least, Venus Terzo and Scott McNeil.

Apparently this is going to be the best line up yet. Who could we have gotten that isn't David Kaye? :D
