What Is The British Webcomic Piss-Up?
| |
The ’British Webcomic Piss-Up 5’ is an effort to bring together
as many British webcomics possible to celebrate St George’s Day.
There’s only two rules to join. 1- The author/s must be British (either British born or currently residing in the UK). 2- This year’s theme is Shields. This means on 23rd April 2007,
all participating webcomics need to post a comic relating to shields
in any way they wish. That’s all there is to it! We also ask that
you provide a link to this site with the banners or buttons available
here.

Why St George’s Day?
| |
Due to polictical correctness and whatnot, St George’s Day has been demoted to a forgotten
day of the calendar. So this annual event was established to celebrate St George’s Day
the only way we know how - with a right royal piss-up! This isn’t about ’English Pride’ (hence why anyone in the UK can join in), it’s about having any good excuse to throw a party!

So, What’s The Point Of The British Webcomic Piss-Up?
| |
With each participant linking to this site, it forms a mass UK link exchange which
will raise more awareness of British webcomics. We also hope to gain the support
of popular comic communities and websites, even if they’re not British. Plus it’s
nice bit of fun doing a group project every now and again!
