Pat Mills signs on Sept. 19th
Saturday 19 September 13:00 – 14:00
London Megastore
Forbidden Planet, 179 Shaftesbury Avenue, London, UK WC2H 8JR
Created to break into the French comics market, Requiem Chevalier Vampire is characterised by extreme violence and by each issue being more daring and darker than the one before. Several scenes of violent sex fuse with wonderfully dark humour and cynicism; it’s a story of hell and resurrection that contains no concept of justice. Inspired by Mills’ own fascination with reincarnation, Requiem Vampire Knight is a fantastic tale of drugs and reversed reality – and of a search for a lost love.
One of the founding fathers of 2000AD and a legendary name in British comics, Pat has created some of the best-known and longest running characters for the magazine, including Slaìne, ABC Warriors and Nemesis The Warlock. His other work also includes writing and developing Judge Dredd and writing the classic World War One war comic Charley’s War.
