Cover Rave - DC Comics Presents #32

This week, DC revealed (via Entertainment Weekly) that Superman's new "leading lady" will be none other than his Justice League teammate, Wonder Woman. This caused a bit of a buzz online and off and reminded me of one of my favorite DC Comics Presents covers. This series was one of my favorites along with Brave & the Bold and Marvel Team-Up with fun mostly single issue stories that introduced me to cool characters through both superhero universes. I know both companies have attempted to bring these titles back for modern readers, but have not had much success. At least the originals are not difficult to find in back issue bins!

Mike, Mike, Bobby, and guests Derrick Ferguson, Dr. Scott Viguie, and award-winning artist Mark Maddox try to name them all, but one name keeps rising to the top of the list – KHAAAAAAANNNN!!!

This Weekend - Rockabilly Luau & Charlotte Comicon

This Saturday (8/4), I will be a vendor at the 2nd Annual Rockabilly Luau in Atlanta, GA! If you are a fan of all things tiki, you should make plans to be there! It is an all-day event filled with music, food, performances, and of course, drinks! Peter Cutler and I will be on hand with Tiki Zombie comics and merchandise. And did I mention proceeds from the event go to two local animal shelters? Definitely my kind of show! And on Sunday (8/5), Peter, Bobby Nash, and I myself will be heading up a bit north for the Charlotte Comicon! A great one-day con featuring some local talent, dealers galore, and a fair share of costumed attendees. A fun show well worth the trip.

So this weekend, if you're getting your tiki on in Atlanta or digging through back issue boxes in Charlotte, be sure to stop by my table and say "Howdy!"
