The month of May is coming to a close and our AZ fiends know that this means two things: it’s only going to get hotter outside and Phoenix Comicon (May 28-31, 2015) is upon us! Starting tomorrow afternoon at 4:00PM MST (Arizona), the doors will open up at Phoenix Convention Centerin Downtown Phoenix for Preview Night, kicking off the largest comics and pop culture event in the Southwest!
This is our hometown show and every year, we aim to up the ante! After a very successful Lady Death Kickstarter, we’re excited to show everyone what Coffin Comics has planned for the road ahead. Not only are we back to self-publishing Lady Death, but we’re also pleased to announce a brand new character in the Coffin Universe, Zack the Zombie Exterminator! (more details below!)
You’ll find Lady Death creator Brian Pulido and Coffin Comics at Booth 7028/7030 all weekend on the main exhibitor floor at the show. Brian will happily sign all your comics and collectibles – but be sure to also consider making a donation to Hero Initiative while you’re at the booth! Hero is federally chartered, non-profit charity that aids veteran comic creators in need! Find out about Hero Initiative here!
