Happy Birthday, ICN!
Irish Comic News Celebrates its First Birthday This Week
We here at Comic Related would like to extend a very special Happy First Birthday to Irish Comic News (ICN) where our good friend and contributor David O'Leary serves as the Mainstream News Editor, Chief Interviewer and Reporter. May ICN have many more birthdays to come. Read on for details about ICN and their birthday celebration.
This week marks the first birthday of ICN and what a year we've had. As any regular visitor to the site can attest to the amazing amount of talent we have in the Country and it is great that we have a way to show this talent to the country and the world.
So with that in mind rather than just celebrate ICN I propose a much better idea. Next week, and every Solstice week in June will now be called IRISH COMIC APPRECIATION WEEK. Don't get me wrong, a year of ICN is worthy of celebration but I think we could do something bigger.
SO what have we at ICN towers got planned for next week? Loads!
