- Thought Bubble (also known as the Yorkshire Comic Art Festival) is an annual comics art festival and comic book convention held in Yorkshire. Established in 2007, Thought Bubble has been credited as being the UK's largest comics convention. The not-for-profit festival's chosen charity is Barnardo's. Thought Bubble takes place for a week in November each year (in conjunction with the Leeds International Film Festival), taking place all over Yorkshire, and culminates in a two-day convention in Harrogate. A dance party is usually held on the Saturday night before the festival's final day. Thought Bubble is held in the spirit of European conventions like the Angoulême International Comics Festival. As such, it is focused on the art and literature of the comics form, and only minimally on related pop-culture expression and merchandising. In addition to the exhibitor tables, Thought Bubble features art exhibits, animation screenings, panel discussions, workshops, and a costume parade. As founded by Tula Lotay, one of the festival's central aims is to celebrate female comics creators. Each year, the main image for that year's festival is illustrated by a woman. Lotay said, "Moving forward we’re going to keep this theme alive and expand it to include other diverse groups within the industry. I can't wait to see the next set of wonderful images." Beginning in 2011, the Thought Bubble Anthology, an annual collection of original comics, was released in conjunction with the festival. From 2012 to 2016, the British Comic Awards were presented at Thought Bubble. (en)
