About this Event
Step into an after-hours experience created especially for comic lovers, superhero fans, and storytelling enthusiasts.
Heroes After Hours blends comics, culture, and connection in a relaxed, high-energy setting. Join us for an exclusive in-store evening featuring a live book signing with author Nathan Atkinson, creator of The Making of a Superhero – From the Projects to Purpose.
This isn’t a typical book signing — it’s a fan-forward social experience where stories, art, and community collide.
What You’ll Experience:
- Mocktails & Light Bites – Sip, snack, and settle into a relaxed social vibe while you mingle
- Connect with Fellow Fans – Bond over comics, culture, creativity, and shared fandom
- Meet the Author – Get your copy signed and hear the real-life origin story behind The Making of a Superhero
- Books Available Onsite – Bring your own copy or purchase one at the event
- After-Hours Vibes – A laid-back, immersive experience inside Comic Forge, just for fans
Whether you’re a lifelong comic fan, collector, creative, or simply someone who loves a great story, this event is for you.
For easy access, park near the cinema entrance and walk through the food court to join us.
