There are more reasons to be excited for Saturday's Free Comic Book Day than simply "Blackest Night #1" ... even if that is likely going to be the biggest headline (trust me, I've seen the book, I know!) For instance, around the area we're about to be invaded by comic book talent, just waiting to sign their names. Here's a rundown:
Alterniverse (in Salt Point) will have a couple of local boys to sign and illustrate sketches for fans, Mark Holmes and Luke Mierisch.
Upstate Comics (in Freedom Plains) is hosting a few of the top names in the biz, Cliff Chiang ("Green Arrow/Black Canary"), Ivan Brandon ("Secret Invasion," "Faces of Evil," "NYC Mech Viking") and Andy MacDonald ("NYC Mech Viking," "Punisher War Journal").
Dragon's Den (in Poughkeepsie) will host the creators of "The Entophilezzz," a Web comic you can check out at THIS LINK.
And while October Country Comics (in New Paltz) will not have any guests, the store will be giving away much more than the average list of company-supplied free comics, there will also be free comics from the stock, free books, free toys and free videos.
If you're outside the mid-Hudson Valley area, THIS LINK will take you to a list of other creator signings on a state-by-state, store-by-store basis.
