This is going to be a big event and we only have them for a limited time so please pay close attention to the following information:
•Saturday, October 19, 3:00pm to 5:00pm
•$20 gets you the Event Exclusive cover of DAY OF THE DEAD GIRL #1
•AJ and Aimee will both sign the comic and you can get ONE additional signature from each creator. But that is all. Even if you buy multiple copies of the comic, you still only get a TOTAL of 2 signatures from each creator. Duplicate copies of the comic will not be signed.
•First-come, first served. The comic will not be available for purchase before the signing.
•Depending on crowd size, the line will most likely need to be capped, and that may happen before the advertised start time. We will make that decision on the day of, so your best chance would be to arrive EARLY and wait in line.
•The line will be OUTSIDE of the shop, wrapping North around the building. We will let groups of people into the signing room as space is available.
•NO POSED PHOTOS. You may take a selfie in front of their signing table, but you cannot go behind the table and the creators will not stand with you. Also, you'll need to take it yourself as there will be no dedicated photographer on hand.
We are grateful to AJ and Aimee for the time they are giving our community and we thank you in advance for adhering to these rules to help ensure that everyone has a wonderful experience.
ABOUT "DAY OF THE DEAD GIRL"
Death is never the end of the story. Coroner Sam Castillo will learn this the hard way, when a supernatural serial killer targets her hometown just as she moves back. A skeptical woman of science, Sam butts heads with her spiritual mother Ana, a leader of a witch coven specializing in Brujeria. But when the coven's Brujas start turning up murdered, Sam and Ana must work together to find the killer and save their town's Day of the Dead festival from turning into an occult bloodbath. As if sharing a bathroom with her mom wasn't hard enough.
