We're doing the live sessions again!...

If you live in Melbourne, Australia and you like funny comic books, consider showing up to COMIC BOOK FUNNY, a series of sessions celebrating Australia's independent comics makers. It's on every Saturday during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival; 5pm, Bella Union bar at Trades Hall (corner Lygon and Victoria St, Carlton).

Week one (Sat April 4): a genteel exhibition launch and informal comics salon, directed by Mme Josephine Waite. All welcome. Plus, live drawing of hot male cartoonists for a calendar we're launching in week four.

Week two (Sat April 11): a very special Intimate Conversation between long-awaited interstate guest Gerard Ashworth and local comics broadcaster [John Retallick](http://thecomicspot.blogspot.com/?ref=nakedfella.com).

Week three (Sat April 18): [Pat Grant](http://www.patgrantart.com/?ref=nakedfella.com) and Brisbane's [Patrick Alexander](http://www.chickennation.com/?ref=nakedfella.com) discuss the merits of dirty comics with host David Blumenstein.

Week four (Sat April 25): [Bernard Caleo](http://www.cardigancomics.com/?ref=nakedfella.com) launches **THE SEXY MEN OF AUSTRALIAN COMICS 2009-2010 FINANCIAL YEAR CALENDAR**, featuring twelve hot male Australian comic artists as drawn by female Australian comic artists.
