A wonderful Festival Journal by Jean-Baptiste Pollien, a.k.a. Jibé on their official site, celebrating the 2019 weekend-long event in Kendal. Free to download, Jibé recounts his experience of visiting the Festival with other European guests, and it’s quite clear that, like attendees, this talented comic creator enjoyed his time in the Lake District!

In 2020, as part of the online event #LICAFLIVE, the Lakes International Comic Art Festival challenged 16 artists to create a 16-panel story with the loosest of storylines, directed by Luke and Joe McGarry. The result was this ‘Pass the Panel’ original comic, created by artists from around the world exclusively for LICAF Live! Pass the Panel reveals the speed, style and sheer imagination of these incredibly talented creators, who are, in order of appearance: Luke McGarry, Duncan Fegredo, Steven Appleby, Rick Stromoski, Steve McGarry, Craig Gleason, Johnny Sampson, Tom Richmond, Lucie Lomová, Charlie Adlard, Bill Morrison, Sean Phillips, Michael Lark, Francis Desharnais, Jibé, and Alex A Pass the Panel was edited by Joe McGarry, with music by Pop Noir and with special thanks to Thomas-Louis Côté and Richard Foster. This digital edition was designed and edited by John Freeman. All art and story © respective artists and writers.
