Comics and Charity at the Hartford Public Library

Who says con season is over? We’ll be spending this Saturday, November 22 at the Hartford Public Library as they bring together comic book creators, artists and writers in a spectacular event.  The happening runs from 11AM to 3PM. It is all part of NaNoWriMo ComBo Fest and the One Book Event that is celebrating the Graphic Novel.

And the best part? A large portion of the proceeds go to the library! By stopping by and picking up artwork and comics, you aren’t just helping budding artists, you are funding reading programs, classes and the other good work the library does for the Hartford community.

You can see more and let us know if you are coming on our Facebook Event Page. Hope we see you there!

Crazy Convention Deal… but better.

At every comic book convention, we try to offer deals and make the event a bit more special for all who cross our flight path. Normally, we offer six comic books for $25 and a couple prints of sequential art from the books. Since we can’t get to every con, or meet every person, we decided to do one better online. Much better.

For today only, we are offering you six comic books (issues #1-2 of The Ascendant, Horsemen and Signed), three prints of sequential art from the books, and the comic books will be bagged, boarded, and signed by the authors for the low, low price of $19.99. That’s right. $19.99. Crazy indeed.

Let me say that again. Six comic books that are bagged, boarded, and signed for $19.99. Included are the three prints of sequential art so you can see what the process of making a comic book looks like from an insider’s point of view. Deal ends at midnight. Limited offer to the first 100 people. Get it while you can. Soar with the ravens and give boring the bird.

Buy 6 books for $19.99

Give boring the bird and take flight with Wayward Raven!

It's Movember

It's that time of the year, where everything is just a bit more...hairy? Yes true believers, it's Movember, the time of year where dudes try to grow silly looking mustaches in an effort to get attention for men's health and cancer research. This time around, I'll be throwing my stache into the fire, along with my buddies (or Mo Bros, as we're being asked to call them) to get some cash for the Movember Foundation.

Join me, Geek Cast Rob Bass, Yesh and Oscar Smith, as we form Team Moltron. Together we'll fight the forces of evil, while sporting some wicked awesome mustaches.
