New 2026 #BF6toWatch review! Check out @starspilli.bsky.social’s debut VERY HUNGRY WOMEN below.

Very Hungry Women #1 - Daisy Crouch's Queer Super-Hero Horror Comic Begins with a Gripping First Instalment – Broken Frontier As a general rule we usually leave super-heroes to other sites to cover. But there are always exceptions. When we do give space to them at Broken Frontier it’s either...

Early next week we'll have the first review for one of our 2026 @brokenfrontier.bsky.social Six to Watch #BF6toWatch creators. (And no doubt her first review ever!) One of the most pleasurable things about the whole BF thing is bringing exciting new voices and excellent work to much wider audiences.

In case you missed it I looked at Alxndra Cook’s SPARROWSONG here at @brokenfrontier.bsky.social. Alex was one of our 2021 #BF6toWatch creators and she’s a huge talent. Published by @koguchipress.com. www.brokenfrontier.com/sparrowsong/

Hanging out on the @brokenfrontier.bsky.social Six to Watch Discord server today and we have at least 7 Sixers tabling at LICAF this year. So excited about this! #BF6toWatch

Scribble through the Struggle - UK Young Comics Laureate Mollie Ray Invites Comic Artists to Share a Moment when They Could Have Given Up on Their Creative Dream, but Didn’t – Broken Frontier A new comics community initiative from Young Comics Laureate Ray alongside the team at Comics Youth is unveiled.

What a brilliant initiative from our 2021 #BF6toWatch creator and current UK Young Comics Laureate @mollieray.bsky.social. Please give it a read and take part if you can! #ScribbleThroughtheStruggle

This was such a good event in 2024. Also where I discovered the work of @rein-lee.bsky.social who became a #BF6toWatch artist as a result (and one of my current faves). Give @inqcomicfair.bsky.social a follow!

Ah, very proud and inspired by the #BF6toWatch crew today. Details to no doubt come later this year.

In the pub at the drink and draw. Clockwise left to right are Mark Stafford, Peony Gent, Joe Stone and Andy Oliver.

Hanging out at @goshcomics.bsky.social and @brokenfrontier.bsky.social Drink and Draw in-person on Friday night in the Royal George with our cartoonist-in-residence @marxtafford.bsky.social and our special guest comics artists @peonygent.bsky.social and @joestone.bsky.social (both #bf6towatch!).

Once again, you should all be following @sammywarddraws.bsky.social. #BF6toWatch

Me looking at the #BF6toWatch Discord today as all the "I got into Thought Bubble" posts come in.

(Also if you're #BF6toWatch and not currently active on our Discord get in touch and let me know what projects you'd like highlighted.)

Firstly we're back co-running the @goshcomics.bsky.social & Broken Frontier Drink and Draw in-person. It's given me an opp to get our #BF6toWatch creators guest artist spots but we're hoping for more 'Six to Watch' panels this year so give me a shout if that appeals for your events.

Andy and Skai Campbell, an emerging voice in comics to watch, in the Royal George pub at the Gosh! Comics and Broken Frontier Drink and Draw.

Got to hang out with the very talented 2026 @brokenfrontier.bsky.social 'Six to Watch' star Skai Campbell @skhoshbell.bsky.social at the @goshcomics.bsky.social and Broken Frontier Drink and Draw on Friday night. Lovely to be able to give the #BF6toWatch a chance to be guest artists at these events.

"I Like the Control You Have, and the Lack of Exposition and Word Vomit Required to Tell a Story" - Emerging Talent Anna Readman Talks About the Unique Possibilities of Comics as a Form – Broken Front... With a surge of interest in her work on social media and a growing buzz about her online output it’s sometimes easy to forget that artist Anna Readman – one...

Speaking of my fave women creators in comics here's a couple of interviews I did at @brokenfrontier.bsky.social with the amazing Anna Readman. A creator I called "the future of British comics" a while back at BF. This is my 2019 #BF6toWatch chat with Anna: www.brokenfrontier.com/anna-readman...

Did I mention how fabulously talented our #BF6toWatch artists are as well? A gift to any event!

Hog Hog: A Hedgehog Anthology - Skai Campbell Makes a Plea for the Conservation of the Spiny Mammals in this Anthology Zine – Broken Frontier Wondering about the declining numbers of hedgehogs? BF 'Six to Watch' artist Skai Campbell explores the subject in 'Hog Hog'.

A University of the Arts London library search results page showing all three of the Broken Frontier Yearbooks in stock at the University of the Arts London's Camberwell College. The books were showcases for the first three years of artists from the Broken Frontier 'Six to Watch' programme.

Camberwell College of Arts (UAL) now have copies of all the @brokenfrontier.bsky.social Small Press Yearbooks in stock. Happy to provide other university libraries in the UK with free copies. #BF6toWatch

My favourite comics photo ever. #BF6toWatch

Done the maths and 85% of our #BF6toWatch artists are outside of the cis white male demographic. It really isn't hard to find line-ups for projects that don't rely on the same section of society time and time again. www.brokenfrontier.com/tag/6-to-wat...

This Discord age-verification nonsense thing is going to be such a huge pain if it does happen. It's where we plan/discuss/decide coverage for the @brokenfrontier.bsky.social team and also on a separate account where we have a sweet, thriving and supportive #BF6toWatch community.

Check out original #BF6toWatch artist @mundymorn.bsky.social’s timeline for some very cool #HourlyComicsDay comics.

Creating opportunities behind-the-scenes for #BF6toWatch artists is one of the best parts of my "job".

We'll have a number of #BF6toWatch artists at the Gosh and Broken Frontier Drink and Draws IN-PERSON this year. The super-talented @rein-lee.bsky.social is the first.

The first morning of Caption 2025. Andy and Broken Frontier 'Six to Watch' creators (Including Cara Brown, Zen K., Mike Armstrong, Dominique Duong and Shane Melisse are sitting together in the foreground.

Oh look... there's a photo of me on the Caption entry on Wikipedia, sitting with the #BF6toWatch speakers before I chaired the @brokenfrontier.bsky.social panel. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caption...

Give all these very talented comics creators a follow! #BF6toWatch

We've updated the Starter Pack for our Broken Frontier 'Six to Watch' artists from across the last 12 years. Give them a follow, folks! They're brilliantly talented voices in comics. #BF6toWatch
