If you live in the Los Angeles area and love the arts, Fanboy Comics invites you to attend The Downtown LA Artwalk: Books, Comics, and Zines, a free, self-guided, premiere public art phenomenon, on Thursday, April 9, 2015, from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. in Downtown Los Angeles!
The Fanboy Comics staff, along with the creative team of comic book series Penguins vs. Possums, will be on hand signing copies of their comics, graphic novels, t-shirts, and other merchandise. In addition, writer/actor/director Gavin Hignight (The Concrete World, Nickelodeon’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) from Rebel Sidekick Studios will be in attendance with two of his books offered at a special reduced rate for Art Walk attendees only! Fanboy Comics, the creators of Penguins vs. Possums, Hignight, and other talented, local creators with attention to the creative and ever progressive nature of alternative literature will bring Downtown LA to life in celebration of the arts.
Fanboy Comics will have the following graphic novels and other works available for sale at the Books, Comics, and Zines installment of The Downtown LA Artwalk:
Fearworms is a collection of horror poems and full-color artwork that is guaranteed to have readers squirming. Cutting close to the bone, these manically crafted word machines are visceral, psychological, haunting, and terrifyingly humorous. The book also features cover art by Eisner-winning, Emmy-nominated artist Bill Sienkiewicz (Elektra: Assassin, Stray Toasters, The New Mutants).
Penguins vs. Possums tells the tale of a secret war between two species, each determined to annihilate the other. Throughout the millennia, they have kept their battle confined to the shadows; however, one brazen act has escalated this conflict to a fever pitch. As the world careens toward Armageddon, every human on the planet will soon be forced to CHOOSE A SIDE!
The Arcs is an epic and gritty graphic novel written by Michael D. Poisson and featuring the artwork of Matt Jacobs. The story details the seven Archangels of Heaven as they battle the demons of Hell and their own faith in God.
Something Animal is an 80-page graphic novel written by Bryant Dillon and Sam Rhodes, with vivid, full-color art by Robert Burrows. Created as a response to the current romantic view of the vampire motif, Something Animal is a dark and gritty tale of psychological terror that is sure to satisfy any fan of the horror genre.
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 Fanboy Comics’ closet!
