Caption Festival blog

Info about the UK's longest running comic book festival

Time’s Running out

Dear Friends and supporters of Caption 2025,

You’ve done a fantastic job. During the IndieGoGo campaign we have raised £763 which is amazing, especially considering we started from zero. Nothing. Ashes.

We’re not as close to our target as we would like, but if you help us reach £1200 that will secure our venue (our biggest cost and kind of essential)! So, if you’re yet to get your festival pass please do, and if you’ve already supported why not invite your friends?

Our campaign ends on the 31st of December so hurry! Pledge if you haven’t already, and tell your friends!

Caption started in 1992 and ran until 2017. It has been ‘mostly dead’ for 7 years, and the new team took it on with zero budget and resources. Our symbol is the Phoenix and 2025s’ theme is Rebirth. We will bring it back, with the help of our wonderful community, because it’s important. It’s important to bring the community together in a supportive (rather than consumerist) environment where creativity and originality is appreciated. We want to help you express yourself and share your stories, because they matter.

ADD ONS:

It has come to my attention that IndieGoGo only lets you buy add-ons at checkout, and they’re not terribly obvious.

If you’re amongst those that missed that breif opportunity here’s a link to get yours!

In a Lord of the Rings-style setting the squabbling heroes blunder through quests and try to keep an adopted Demon child on the straight and narrow. Will they succeed or will they Epic Fail?
