Being at the Arcana booth 2415 has been an amazing experience and it has only been one night! The people are great both in and out of the booth and everyone who has taken the time to listen has been very interested in both Faction and Citizens… A bunch of people even purchased copies!
Highlight of the night? A guy came up who had been looking specifically for Citizens’s First Issue SDCC Variant. He even had us marked on his SDCC map (he showed me)! 3 people in total last night were specifically looking for our books, which was great, but plenty more left with everything we had to offer.
FYI, 300 copies of the Citizen’s variant…. $8 each or $10 for both Citizens covers, which form into one image together. Come say hi, get a chicken scratch scrawl on the page, and see what else the booth has to offer (insanely good deals, too). BOOTH 2415 / ARCANA! If you see Odin’s Throne at the Marvel booth, you’re close!
Want to read more about my (Erik’s) journey to SDCC?
Erik Hendrix and Michael Nelsen of Carpet Bomb Comics will be at San Diego Comic Con 2010 working at the Arcana Booth and selling both Carpet Bomb Comics and Zedura Magazine! Be sure to pic something up at the booth and enter a raffle where you can win free books, FLIP Digital Video Recorders, or even a chance to meet STAN LEE or get a Stan Lee signed copy of the latest Zedura Magazine. Nice, huh?
Also, check out the signing schedule at the booth… Michael and I will be signing on Saturday afternoon and then again on Sunday (maybe just me, though).
Come say hi!
We have some great deals on Faction and Citizens and, of course, don’t forget we have an SDCC Exclusive Variant cover to Citizens issue 1! Limited to 300 copies… Once they’re gone, that’s it!
Hey all! We’ve been hard at work finishing up Faction issue 1 and Citizens issue 1 and they’re at the printer! We received confirmation today that they’ve both been excepted, proofs signed off, and that we’ll get them before SDCC. Phew!!!! Seriously a MAJOR team effort went down to pull this off and I’m VERY thankful to everyone for chipping in to make the books a success.
So, SDCC… We’re going to be at the Arcana Booth, 2415, for the duration of SDCC helping out and, of course, selling Faction and Citizens! Why Arcana? Well, I’m the Editor in Chief of Zedura Magazine, which they publish, and Michael Nelsen is the Creative Director. Handy, huh? To knock out two birds with one stone and concert our efforts, we’ve combined forces for the convention. Their booth, of course, but we’ll be there. Don’t miss the extremely limited SDCC Exclusive Variant Cover to Citizens issue 1!!
If you ordered Faction and/or Citizens through the presale, thanks for that! It’s over now, but the regular covers of both books will be back on sale after the convention and any pre orders will ship right after the convention, too. We’ll be getting the book the day before the convention, so there’s just no time to get them shipped before!
More previews of both books coming, so get ready for it!
Thanks,
Erik Hendrix
