Another week, another signing

This week it was Dan Abnett, a writer of comics and books:

I've met him before, as he did a signing earlier in the year to promote his Warhammer books (I don't "get" Warhammer - weird little things you paint and then roll dice or something), and he's a nice guy, as he takes the time to chat, personalise your book/comic etc. At that time I didn't realise that he was also the writer of "Death's Head II", a legendary comic that sold millions in the early 90's which I bought during my gap year in the UK (well, actually it was a gap 6 months, but I used to have day trips to London to stock up on comics). I managed to track down some old issues off eBay (as the vast majority of my comic collection resides in Australia), got them signed by the artist Liam Sharp at the comic convention in Bristol in May, and they're now also signed by Dan on the weekend! I've also had the original Death's Head comics (Death's Head I who appeared in the UK Transformers comic) signed by Simon Furman, Geoff Senior and Lee Sullivan. Now I just need to track down Bryan Hitch to sign them! Is this re-living my childhood/teens some sort of early mid-life crisis???
