Just 1 Page (J1P) was charity comic linked to the United Kingdom's Comic Festival and Comic Expo comic book conventions in Bristol, SW England. Single-page contributions were donated by a range of professional and amateur artists and writers, including many notable UK creators. Just 1 Page, produced by Adrian "Ade" Brown, published four issues, each one on a specific theme, in the period 2001–2006.
The first Just 1 Page comic, published in 2001, raised about £500 for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund and Comic Relief. Just 1 Page 2 (2003) raised £800 for the Trinity Hospice in Clapham. Just 1 Page 3 (2005) raised £600 for Childline.
Notable contributions were:
- A picture of a race between DC's Flash, Marvel's Quicksilver and Road Runner from Looney Tunes, drawn by Alan Davis.
- A page where Steve Gerber's Howard the Duck and Destroyer Duck appear at a comics convention. This was drawn by Phil Winslade and was used by Gerber and Winslade in preparation for the Marvel Max series starring Howard.
- Three statues by Jesse Farrell: one of Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen; one of Paul Grist's Jack Staff and a third of Shaun of the Dead battling a zombie.
Connected to the Just 1 Page project was the 24 Minute Comic, a high-speed variation of the 24-hour comic, in which twenty-four artists collaborated by drawing a page each during a twenty-four-minute period. The first 24 Minute Comic, which included such contributors as Roger Langridge, Gary Northfield, and David Baillie, was produced for the 2005 UK Web & Mini Comix Thing. A second 24 Minute Comic was also later produced.
