Where to Find the Broken Frontier Six to Watch at Thought Bubble 2025!

THOUGHT BUBBLE MONTH 2025! We can’t finish our Thought Bubble coverage this year without a mention as to where you can find artists from the 11 years of our Broken Frontier Six to Watch programme in Harrogate this year. These are some of the finest emerging (and in many cases now very established) talents to have worked in UK indie comics over the last decade-plus and everything you buy from them will be a comicky gem of the medium. Seek them out and acquire their wares. You won’t regret it!

(Apologies in advance to whoever I forget and miss out on this list. There will be someone!)
