This month is a tough episode in that it marks the last episode of Signals From The Hill that will be hosted by this podcast’s founder and our Head Of Sales, Steve Walsh. The whole team chat with Steve about his time in comics, from childhood reads, to building the graphic novel section in Waterstones’ flagship store, his time running the small press section at Gosh! Comics and then coming to work for Avery Hill. Content Warning for friends of Steve. It contains some bad news about his health that, if you don’t already know the extent of, you might not want to find out in this way. So maybe don’t listen to this until you’ve had a chance to speak to Steve or someone close to him. [...] The post Signals From The Hill #38 – Steve Walsh appeared first on Avery Hill Publishing.
