For the third year running, I am providing the questions for the trivia quiz
at the United Kingdom Comic Art Convention (UKCAC: 19 - 20 September). My
brain is already mushy, so I'm asking for help. What I need is comics
related questions with 3 multiple choice answers.

I have included some questions from previous years so that you can see the
sort of question I need.

Please email replies to spif@tiuk.ti.com.

Thanks.
