With doing nearly every show in driving distance for 2014, I learned that it’s tough doing those and staying on top of my workload. So I’ll have to become more selective in 2015. Here is the master list of shows to choose from:

For everyone attending the Long Beach Comic-Con next week, stop by to see me at Booth #1304b!  I’ll be promoting a special limited edition LBCC only printing of Hass #1 (only 100 copies printed, so get yours before they’re all gone).  There will also be copies of Chaos Campus along with a few random surprises.

See you there!

I’ve been super busy since the wonderful chaos that was SDCC, but I’ll do a blog post about that experience within the next week or so.  Until then I wanted to give a few updates concerning my latest two projects, Hass & Southern Hospitality:

There were 50 limited First Look copies of Hass #1 printed for SDCC.  Here’s the first review for the issue!  Hass is a four issue mini series and we hope to have more news for the series within the next few months.

The next project I plan to push heavily around the Long Beach Comic-Con is the Southern Hospitality graphic novel.  Artist Kevin Richardson made a cool blog post that gives a little background insight on the book as long as a sneak peek of the interior art!

Check out a really deep and in-depth interview I did with Richard Caldwell @ The Lottery Party: http://thelotteryparty.com/interviews-b-alex-thompson/

For everyone attending the San Diego Comic Con next week, I’m going to be at the Arcana booth (booth 2415) promoting and signing copies of Blood, Shells, & Roses, Amour GN vol. 1 & 2, and Lethal Instinct TPB vol 1!  Stop on by!  I’m scheduled to sign on the following schedule:

Saturday – July 20th
12:30PM – 1:15 PM

Sunday – July 21st
11:30AM – 12:30 PM

If all goes as planned I will have Evil Inside tee shirts for sale, too!

I will also be stopping in at the Lion Forge/Geekscape booth (#3919) when I can to help preach the word about The Chosen and Catalyst Prime!

So there you have it!  Hope to see everyone there! 🙂

I know many of you have been asking about Chaos Campus TPBs.  Wait no longer because the first three are available and ready to order.  Click the links to order your print editions of Chaos Campus Volume One (collecting issues #1-4), Volume Two (collecting issues #5-8), and Volume Three (collecting issues #9-12)!

Don’t forget that the first full seven issues of Chaos Campus are up on www.ChaosCampus.com.  Updates continue every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday!  If you haven’t already, show your support via our Chaos Campus FaceBook page!

Thanks, everyone!  Your support is greatly appreciated!  🙂

Here’s my interview with Comic Book and Movie Reviews!  Check it out!

P.S. Though links to my Arcana books are in the interview, I figured I’d add them here again!
Blood, Shells, & Roses on Amazon.com & Amazon.co.uk / Diamond code: AUG110795
Amour Volume 1 and Volume 2 / Diamond codes: NOV110711 & NOV110712
Lethal Instinct on Amazon.com / Diamond Code: OCT110797

Ha… I pretty much explained everything in the first journal entry.  I guess I’ll copy and paste here, too:

“As some of you know, Chaos Campus: Sorority Girls vs. Zombies is a printed comic book series, but I’ve been considering bringing it over to web publication for a while now.  What better time than the day after the supposed Rapture to actually do it?!

This doesn’t mark the end of the print series.  Those of you who follow the traditionally published series will be rewarded with knowing more about the storyline far in advance than your web reading peers.  At the moment of this posting, most of the first Act has been published- this means 20 issues of main story and 5 issues of the Extra Credit supplementary issues.  By the time the web comic gets to this point, the printed issues should be at issue 40 (the end of Act 2) or possibly even the last issue (#60).  We’ll play it all by ear.

At this point I’m thinking that new pages will be uploaded three times a week- Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.  Depending on how things go that number can go down to twice a week or up to five times a week.  Again, we’ll play it all by ear.

So here it is… the first image for the site which also happens to be the cover art to the first issue.  Long time readers and new readers, feel free to sound off in the comments section.”

For everyone who said the pages on here were too small and too difficult to read, I had you guys in mind.  Enjoy the larger sized pages!  🙂

I will be attending, mostly floating around and attending meetings.  I’m not on the official Arcana schedule, but since I’m assured at least the first issue of my new mini series “Blood, Shells, & Roses” will be there I’ll probably be there sometime or another.  Keep checking in and asking my whereabouts!

If you’re attending, let me know if you’ll be walking around or at a booth (and the location and times).

============================================================================================

There was a previous Chaos Campus series to test the waters with the concept.  Those issues were collected within the Chaos Campus: Orientation TPB.  You can snag a copy of that physical 162 page book right here.
