Photos of My Los Angeles Power Rangers Comic Book Signings

Monday, November 10th, 2025

My newest release, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Halloween Special, dropped in late October and I visited some of my favorite comic shops here in SoCal to sign comics and meet MMPR fans.

Let's go in reverse order because why not! Here I am at Things from Another World at Universal CityWalk on Oct 30th with Rosie Knight:

The weekend before that, I was at Nostalgic Comic Shop on Oct 25th with Nicole Goux, Sina Grace, and Meghan Camarena:

Big thanks to these amazing comic book retailers, as well as our wonderful friends who showed up to support us. I'm looking forward to working on more Power Rangers down the line because they're fun to write. Bold colors, wild monsters, and big robots!

I currently have three Los Angeles area signings in the works. My buddy Pete at Nostalgic Comic Shop in San Gabriel is putting together something special for Sat Oct 25, where I'll be joined by other creators and some mighty guests.

I was honored to have so many fantastic friends come out for our Secret Headquarters book launch party for Godzilla: Monster Island Summer Camp. Rosie Knight, Oliver Ono, Jodie Troutman, and I celebrated our new graphic novel with the legend Godzilla and tons of other cool people.

We also had the opportunity to exhibit at OC Zine Fest, which was a terrific experience. Anaheim really showed up and showed out for the event, and we look forward to being back there again in the future.

On top of that, we received some great news this week via ICv2 -- Godzilla: Monster Island Summer Camp is a bestseller! We landed at #14 on the August charts for graphic novels sold through comic shops.

Next up is Orange Public Library Comic Con this Saturday, September 14 from 12-4. And then, in two weeks, Rosie and I head off to reunite with Oliver and Chad (and Jodie!) in Ohio for a signing at Laughing Ogre's CXC booth on Sunday, September 29 from 2:30-5, followed by a signing at the Laughing Ogre shop on the evening of Wednesday, October 2.

Also, I accidentally made my masterpiece zine last night...
