Free Comic Book Day is more than just free comics. It's a chance for publishers to give back to their loyal fans. Top Cow plans on going the distance for this year's FCBD, as they have arranged numerous talent signings throughout the US on that glorious day. First, the comic.
Top Cow is giving away
Cyberforce/Hunter-Killer First Look for free as an enticement to get you into the crossover. Mark Waid provides the words while Kenneth Rocafort provides the drawings for the epic crossover. Not only that, but Waid will be making an appearance in CA and Rocafort in Puerto Rico for signings. Who else is making appearances?
Michael Broussard and Filip Sablik will be in California, while Jeremy Haun will be in Nebraska (?). The bulk of the talent will be in California, so hopefully you're in the state to take advantage of the talent that will be floating around and signing autographs.
Full press release below.
TOP COW UNVEILS FREE COMIC BOOK DAY PLANS
Includes Numerous Hometown Signings and Events
LOS ANGELES, Calif., April 27th, 2009 – Top Cow Productions, Inc. proudly announced its plans today for this weekend’s Free Comic Book Day, Saturday, May 2nd which takes place in comic shops across North America. Free Comic Book Day is an annual event where participating direct market stores give out free comics to anyone that walks into their store.
Top Cow is participating again in the event with their Free Comic Book Day offering, Cyberforce/Hunter-Killer First Look. The issue serves as an introduction to the publisher’s summer event of the same name, which brings together the two popular teams Cyberforce and Hunter-Killer. The series and Free Comic Book Day offering is written by Mark Waid (Amazing Spider-Man, Irredeemable) and drawn by Kenneth Rocafort (Astonishing Tales, Madame Mirage). Both teams were co-created by Top Cow founder Marc Silvestri and Hunter-Killer was co-created by writer Mark Waid. The teams have been absent from a regular series for several years and this marks their return to the forefront of the Top Cow Universe.
Writer Mark Waid will be appearing at Collector’s Paradise in Winnetka, CA and artist Kenneth Rocafort will be appearing at the Puerto Rico Comic Con in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Other Top Cow creators making appearances in Los Angeles include Michael Broussard, Rob Levin, Nelson Blake II, and Rick Loverd.
