Talking Comics!

There's a secret meeting going on you should know about! Author Tim Pilcher and Hayley Campbell (Eddie's daughter) one of our spiritual friends over at Gosh! Here's the skinny:

In collaboration with Playgroup, Brighton's celebrated spoken word night, the Catalyst Club presents EXOTICA, a series of outlandish, entertaining and enlightening talks throughout the May Festival in a secret POP-UP VENUE, on themes ranging from ghost trains and freakshows to utopias, camping and vaginas. Each night will feature special guest speakers plus surprise performers from the festival itself. Come and be inspired, learn stuff, share your festival tips in our audience review section, meet the performers and maybe even push the boat out and have half a shandy.

SEX, DEATH, HELL & SUPERHEROES
with Tim Pilcher & Hayley Campbell

From Wonder Woman's 1940s bondage fantasies, through costume play fetishism, and right up to the logical conclusion of the LA porn industry making "superhero porn parodies" Tim Pilcher, author of the bestselling Erotic Comics: A Graphic History, takes you on a turgid tour through 70 years of carnal caped comics!
What becomes of a 3-year-old whose father goes to the butcher and asks for bits of cow to use as picture reference for the insides of disembowelled prostitutes? She becomes totally obsessed with death. Hayley Campbell, daughter of Eddie Campbell (FROM HELL) and biographer for Neil Gaiman, takes you on an autobiographical history of horror comics.
