A free comic book workshop is taking place in Dundee next week
Comic book enthusiasts in Dundee will have the opportunity to discover how their favourite stories are brought to life during a free creative workshop taking place at Lost Galaxy Comic Shop on Perth Road.
The event, titled Making Comics Together, will take place on Thursday 12 November as part of Being Human Festival 2026, which celebrates Dundee’s history, culture and creativity through a programme of free events organised by the University of Dundee and Abertay University.
The interactive workshop will explore the collaborative process behind comic book creation, from developing scripts and working with artists to transforming ideas into illustrated stories.
Particular attention will be given to comics created for research, education and science communication at the University of Dundee.
Visitors will have the chance to meet comic book creators involved in these projects, learn more about their creative approaches and discover how comics can communicate complex ideas in engaging and accessible ways. Some of the comics produced through these projects will also be available free of charge during the event.
Participants will also be invited to try their hand at creating their own short comic strip, offering an opportunity to experience the creative process for themselves.
Taking place from 6pm to 8pm at Lost Galaxy Comic Shop, 212a Perth Road, the event is free and open to the public, although advance booking is required due to limited capacity.
