Promoting Baseball, Captains Style

I'm partnering with the Lake County Captains once again this year. I'll be doing three promotions for them.

1. In previous years, I've arranged to have my Free Comic Book Day issue of Love and Capes available at Classic Park on FCBD. This year, I'll be doing an original eight-page Lake County Captains comic.

I've already committed to be at Four Color Fantasies in Rancho Cucamonga that day, so I won't be there for the giveaway. But it'll be a great time, regardless!

And I'll be posting some art and the cover soon.

Free Comic Book Day: May 1, 2010.

2. I've designed a Skipper "Bobble Belly"with Skipper as a rockin' guitar player to celebrate Cleveland and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Skipper's playing a specially designed Fender Stratocaster.

Rock-n-Roll Nght: July 3, 2010.

3. And, to tie in with Cleveland and the A Christmas Story connection, we're going to be doing a Skipper Leg Lamp. Yup, you read that right. Hot electric baseball action that will look great on your desk. (It's not full size.)

Christmas in July, July 25 2010.

$240 Worth of Pudding... er, Comics

My copies of Love and Capes #7 have arrived from the printer. The boxes you see here include the complete run of the retail version, which will be stored here at Zahler World Headquarters, as well as a thousand or so copies of the FCBD issue, which are for the Lake County Captains'/Comic Heaven Free Comic Book Day event.

I just gave blood at the annual Bloodsucker's Ball, so I'm not planning on hauling them up to the attic just yet. (They say not to lift heavy things after giving blood.) I'll just push them into the garage later tonight. For now, though, they're being guarded by the 70s Era Earth-Two Hawkman.
