In this episode Lucy chats to cartoonist Marc Jackson.
Marc lives and works in Macclesfield with my wife Jane and children Nancy and Florence.
He created comics and characters for the BEANO, Aces Weekly, Hey kids comics, the Brooklyn red hook star revue, Freaky magazine, SCARFFF comics newspaper, and the Phoenix. In 2017 he was awarded a grant from the Arts Council to create the comic ‘Here comes CAT STEVENS’ published by the Lakes international comic art festival.
Marc specialises in comics for all-ages and also runs workshops in schools, libraries, and at comics festivals around the country (and on occasion, around the world!). He runs ROOM FOR COMICS with Jane, which is a comic art studio dedicated to his passion for comics and teaching the joys of cartooning.
Every year Marc organises MACC-POW! Macclesfield’s annual comic art festival taking place around the town, each summer for the past 8 years.
