Floodgates open...

Just a reminder that I will be signing at the fabulous Olympic Cards & Comics in Lacey, WA, this Wednesday, Nov. 11th. Accompanying me will be two of my partners in various crimes, Greg Rucka (Detective Comics, Stumptown, Action Comics) and Brandon Jerwa (Wide Awake, Battlestar Galactica, Inferno). 

 

The signing is a bit of a celebration, as the day marks three titles I wrote or co-wrote hitting store shelves: Action Comics #883 (which I cowrote with Greg), The Shield #3 (featuring an Inferno co-feature by Brandon) and the conclusion to JSA Vs. Kobra: Engines of Faith

 

The signing begins at roughly noon and will run 'til at least 4 pm (possibly later). 

 

Olympic Cards & Comics is located at:

4230 Pacific Avenue

Lacey, WA 98503

Action Comics #883

For a peek at Action Comics #883 (and the excellent Captain Atom co-feature), head on over to DC Comics' blog, "The Source"....


Written by Greg Rucka and Eric Trautmann; Co-feature written by James Robinson and Greg Rucka; Art by Pere Pérez; Co-feature art by CAFU; Cover by CAFU

Since "Codename: Patriot," Earth's hatred for Kryptonians has only escalated – which is what makes it so odd that Nightwing and Flamebird pick now to become public Super Heroes! Meanwhile, Lois Lane finally meets with the man she thought long dead – her father, General Lane. But he has a message to deliver to his journalist daughter: "You're either with us or against us." 

And in part 5 of the new co-feature, Captain Atom, now back on Earth and knowing the truth about his mission, must face an old foe – his archenemy, Major Force!

It all ends here! Now that the Kobra's lair has been razed by the Justice Society, Jason Burr's plans should fall to pieces. But the terrorist leader has more than one plan at work, and the JSA won't be able to stop them all once they're put in motion! It's old dogs vs. new tricks in one final gambit!

The Shield #3

Written by Eric Trautmann; Co-feature written by Brandon Jerwa; Art by Marco Rudy and Mick Gray; Co-feature art by Greg Scott; Cover by Francis Manapul

The Shield is due to conclude his first mission, but he may not get out alive! "Backed up" by fellow superhero and former United States Marine Magog and facing the evil behind the mind-grabbing evil known as the Brain Emperor, The Shield better catch his bearings fast if he plans on surviving his third issue!

Meanwhile, Inferno keeps blazing a trail wherever he goes, no matter how hard he tries to stay invisible.

Housekeeping

Just a reminder that I've been forced to cancel my appearance at the upcoming Portland Comic Book Show, due to a scheduling conflict. 

 

The show's organizers have been very gracious, and if you're in Portland, Oregon on November 15th, 2009, you'll find the show located at Memorial Coliseum in the Rose Quarter. The show runs from 10am to 5pm.

 

For more information and directions to the show, the official show website can be found here


Also: I neglected to post a link to a recent episode of the excellent "Around Comics" podcast; recently, they invited me on to discuss JSA Vs. Kobra and The Shield. JSA Vs. Kobra artist Don Kramer was the featured interview.
