Welcome aboard!
Autumn 2010, two Japanese Manga artists, Chie Kutsuwada and Inko decided to start personification of tube stations in London.
Here in Go♥Go Metro!, you might have a chance to meet your local station in person...?!

Li*erpo0l St - sketch
The third station to be introduced is Li*erpo0l St! He's is a very modern business guy, work hard play hard, love fashion and love music. He, simply, is enjoying the urban life but he also has a big respect to the tradition.
BTW he's got a friend who is very hard working, a little bit square and is good at mathematics. Lol Can you guess who?
Here, not only stations/characters are introduced but also some short mangas will be up so you can peek what they are up to!

King's €ross St ₱ancras - framed drawing
By the way, Inko is having a solo exhibition at Wickle in Needlemakers in Lewes. Here you can see my actual drawings of stations! It's on now till 13th November. :D
King's €ross St ₱ancras - sketch
The first station to introduce is King's €ross St ₱ancras. King's €ross has got a cross scar on his forehead and a magic power! Yes, from a reference of a famous book (you can guess which one!). He also appears chatty and friendly with loads of friends - because many lines are through the station. St ₱ancras looks Goth - based on his brilliant Gothic station building.
Anyway, we'll upload more characters and postcards are available at MCM London Expo this weekend at Umisen-Yamasen table. ;)
