Titan Press Release wrote:To celebrate the 20th anniversary of theTransformers , and the release of the latest volume of the Transformers UK reprint series, Simon Furman (with the possibility of a very special guest!) will be making a signing appearance at Kulture Shock, 10-12 St Benedict's Street, Norwich, NR2 4AG from 2pm on Saturday, 21st August.

Simon will be signing copies of the brand new book, Second Generation (reprinting Transformers UK 59-65, 93, 145, 198, and the 1989 Annual), as well as copies of the extensive Titan Books Transformers backlist. Attendees who purchase a TF title and sign up to Simon’s ‘Wildfur’ e-mail newsletter receive a free copy of the exclusive Wildfur/Atari Transformers mini-comic (from the PS2 game).

Simon Furman remains at the peak of his popularity with Transformers fans, his name forever linked with the 80s robot phenomenon. As well as writing for TV animation, hardback non-fiction and radio, Furman has scripted literally hundreds of stories featuring the refugees from Cybertron – most recently the Dreamwave reinventions of the franchise: The War Within, Armada and Energon – coming from Titan Books in September!

I thought that said singing. I'd make the trip to Norwich to see Simon Furman singing.

I misread it too.

I thought it said 'Simon Furman in Signing Shock!'

*ahem*

If anyone's in the Norwich area I'd advise you go. When I went to the signing at Banbury it was easy to get quality time with the gent, who's very much a nice bloke.

Why lump the xmas stories in the Second Generation TPB though? It would've been the perfect opportunity for the excellent Crisis of Command to finally see print.

I know this is a really old topic, but I just had to say that 'Kulture Shock' in Norwich is a rubbish shop - they only ever have the same six Transformers things in stock. And those are all books - mostly Titan, which you can get anywhere.
Why the hell did Furman pick there to appear? I did consider going to see him, but I just don't like the shop that much.
