A new exhibition featuring comic art by Orkney-based artists is set to open in Kirkwall today.

The Orkney Comic Art Exhibition will be held on the first floor of Custom House in Albert Street, and will be made up of a mix of original work and prints.

The exhibition includes works from four Orkney-based artists —  Cam Kennedy, of 2000AD and Star Wars, Jim Baikie, who contributed to 2000AD and DC Comics, The Giddy Limit creator Alex Leonard, and Tony O’Donnell of The Beano.

The exhibition is due to run until August 30.
