*Fearworms: Selected Poems is a collection of maniacally crafted horror poems and full-color artwork by Robert Payne Cabeen (Heavy Metal 2000).

*Something Animal is an 80-page graphic novel written by Bryant Dillon and Sam Rhodes, with vivid, full-color art by Robert Burrows.

*Identity Thief is a suspenseful graphic novel written by Bryant Dillon and featuring over 60 pages of original art by Meaghan O’Keefe. Reminiscent of the horrific tales of The Twilight Zone or Creepshow, this thriller will allow fans to discover the monster lurking in Fanbase Press’ closet!
THE QUINCE SPECIAL
Got a superhero fanatic on your holiday shopping list? Look no further than Fanbase Press’ 2020 Quince Special which will provide your little hero with a copy of the Eisner Award-nominated comic book series Quince, as well as a limited edition enamel pin featuring Quince superhero Q for only $25 (plus shipping).
*In Quince, Lupe is just your average, insecure, well-meaning, occasionally cranky teenage girl whose life is completely turned upside down when she discovers she has superpowers at her quinceañera. Her quince powers only last as long as she’s fifteen, so over the course of this rollercoaster year, we follow the adventures of Lupe as she figures out what it really means to be a hero. Quince is a 15-issue comic book series written by Kit Steinkellner, illustrated by Emma Steinkellner, and created by Sebastian Kadlecik which was originally released on ComiXology in English and Spanish.
*Show your Quince pride with this limited edition enamel pin, featuring Lupe as her superhero alter ego, Q! (Metal fastener)
THE ADVENTURE PACK
Fanbase Press’ graphic novels, The Margins and The Sequels, each bring their own sense of adventure and excitement to new readers. This year, the 2020 Adventure Pack will provide the avid reader on your holiday shopping list with a copy of each graphic novel for only $35!
*In The Margins, artist Charley Keo’s new gig begins as a fun challenge to breathe new life into the forgotten pulp world of Elad – this time as a comic book. But as tendrils of this lost realm creep into her sleepy Portland neighborhood, Charley realizes that Elad is much more than the lines on a day-dreamt map, more than the sum of an old hack’s prose. Elad has its hooks in Charley, and what was once fantasy has become deadly reality for both the artist and the woman she loves.
The graphic novel examines the dual nature of an artist’s creative process in providing a healthy outlet for self-expression, as well as an unhealthy mechanism for avoidance and isolation. At its core, The Margins serves as an allegory for the growing trend of gatekeeping and its devastating ramifications.
In the height of 1980s nostalgia, The Sequels dares to question whether our grasp on the past is endangering our future.
Remember the ‘80s? Avery, Gwen, Russell, and Dakota will never forget. As children, they each experienced unique adventures . . . saving the life of a sentient robot, partying with an intergalactic alien, battling the likes of vampires and werewolves, and defeating a nightmarish monster to protect imagination itself. Now, 30 years later, they’re directionless adults, still obsessed with their pasts. When a mysterious figure brings the group together to cope with their experiences, will they be prepared to live out the “sequels” to their childhood adventures?
Celebrate the season and treat the geeks on your holiday shopping list with these great deals!
