Barnes and Noble Godzilla author event in Los Angeles

On Saturday, January 27th at 2pm here in Los Angeles, I'll be joined by some of my great comics friends for a Godzilla author discussion and graphic novel signing hosted by Barnes & Noble at The Grove.

My brilliant wife Rosie Knight will moderate a panel featuring comic book creators James F. Wright, FerioWind, Mark Martinez, Johnny Parker II, and yours truly. We'll be discussing the creative process behind our Godzilla Rivals issues for IDW Publishing and our approach to crafting stories about the Big G.

Afterwards, at 3pm we'll have a signing with James, Ferio, and myself of the recently released Godzilla Rivals: Round Two TPB (and probably Rosie's Round One too!). If you're in the LA area, I hope to see you there.

James F. Wright and I visited Things from Another World at Universal CityWalk last Saturday to sign copies of our latest release, Godzilla Rivals: Round Two. We had a fantastic time talking about kaiju and comics with good friends both old and new.

Thanks to everyone who made it out to this event. It was another wonderful visit to TFAW and I can't wait to be back there signing comics again.

Godzilla Rivals: Round Two is in stores now, signings on the way

The latest Godzilla Rivals collection from IDW hits comic shops and bookstores this week. It's filled with four furiously fun and self-contained kaiju adventures, including Biollante Vs. Destoroyah by yours truly, Sean Dove, Andrew Misisco, and Nathan Widick.

I had the chance to swing by Forbidden Planet in London and sign a few copies of Godzilla Rivals: Round Two for their new releases wall. (Rosie also signed a copy of her new Screen Traveller's Guide from DK!)

My good friend James F. Wright and I will be signing Round Two together at Things from Another World at Universal CityWalk in Los Angeles on Saturday, November 11 starting at 4pm and going into the evening. UPDATE: Here are some pics from that great signing.

We also have another signing to announce early next year and we'll be bringing some friends along for that one, so stay tuned. It should be a lot of fun and something a little different from our usual Godzilla events.

Back to this weekend, I'm also meeting up with a bunch of comics people at Nostalgic Comic Shop on Sunday, November 12 to make original art to support the store. Speaking of that great store, I joined them back in the summer for an episode of the ComiCentric podcast to talk about the Jacket Avengers and some of my other comic book passions.

Finally, while I'm waiting to hear back from publishers about some rad pitches I have in the works, I'm helping out on an unannounced Godzilla project. The story and art are so terrific, and I can't wait for everyone to learn more about it. Until then, I hope you'll pick up the Godzilla Rivals: Round Two TPB and enjoy some unique visions of the Big G's world.
