PCAF is a not-for-profit organisation created to share love for sequential storytelling with free, creator-focused events in Perth, Western Australia.
We believe comics are for everybody and celebrate comics of all types, including graphic novels, manga, vertical comics, comic strips and more!
Silly Billy Winners (Winnies) Announced
Everyone has waited on bated breath... give it up for our our official Silly Billy winners (aka Silly Billy Winnies) as announced at the PCAF Exhibitors' Afterparty!
What are the Silly Billies, I hear you ask? Only the silliest, most trivial, most inconsequential comic awards this side of the equator! Silly categories include “The Best Rendering of a Butt” and “The Sparkliest Anime Eyes”. Nominations were made on Market Day at this year's PCAF to our roving judges.
