An interview with Cliodhna Lyons

This week sees the launch of a fantastic new comic book anthology ‘Sorry I can’t take your call right now I’m off saving the world’ featuring work by 30 different artists from Ireland, the UK, Germany and the United States. The Comic Cast ventured down to Kilkenny to talk to illustrator and printmaker Cliodhna Lyons who produced the book in memory of her Dad Conor Lyons who worked with GOAL in post-tsunami Sri Lanka. On the show we talk about the anthologys production, Cliodhna’s experiences at small/alternative comic shows across the globe and the annual 24hr Comic Event in Dublin which she runs. Enjoy.

The Dublin launch of the anthology takes place THIS Sunday 21st Sept from 9pm in The Stags Head.

    Great interview, lads. Really enjoyed it. She spins a good yarn. Much better than that Chris bloke and that Bob fella you interviewed.

  6. Sid Clark Says:

    Sorry to be negative, but… that wasn’t very enjoyable. It wasn’t just the length, it was the gushy-ness of it. She’s a very nice person, I’m sure, and talented, too.
