Prestonpandemonium is a comics event that takes place in Prestonpans, near Edinburgh.
About Us
Prestonpandemonium is run by Nigel and Jan Barker.
Nigel: I've never really got over the 18 months I spent working in Forbidden Planet in the late 80s. As a kid I loved 2000AD and UK Marvels and as a bigger kid I loved Love & Rockets and Peter Bagge.
When I moved to Scotland I wanted to recreate the Camden Comic Mart in my own backyard. Prestonpandemonium didn't quite work out that way, but I love that it has its own character and identity now, and I have finally achieved my ambition of being a guy who sells small press comics for little obvious reward.
Jan: I'm his wife.
