Unto you, it is Free Comic Book Day, the high holy day of the year.
If you’re a retailer reading this as you caffeinate before the big day, I’m sending you all the strength in the world. Myself, I’m kicking back today, as I…honestly forgot to organize a signing. I’ll probably hit up a local shop to grab a copy of my story - oh yes I mentioned this. I have a story in the BOOM FCBD issue out today. Under the banner of Boom’s fantastic HELLO DARKNESS horror series, Chloe Brailsford and I got to do a short little story together about the power of dreams and mean, mean girls. Let me know if you pick it up!
I wish I could give each and every one of you free comics today - and I need to clean out my comps closet. So in the spirit of the holiday…time for aaaaaa
big sale over on Tinihoward.com/store!!!
I wanted this to be a buy one get one, but my shop apparently doesn’t have that capability. So instead, each and everything in the Comics tab of the store is 50% off until Monday May 5th at 11:59PM WITH CODE FCBD2025. You have to use the code, that’s not up to me, that’s how Squarespace does it.
That includes rare variants, foil variant, everything with staples instead of a spine is half off. This means with some of the $5 issues, there are a couple of complete storylines you could pick up for like, ten bucks. And on top of that, they all come signed, and personalized if you request it in the order notes or in an email to info@tinihoward.com. Pretty crazy deal, but it’s one of my favorite days for comics and I want to get this closet of mine cleaned out.
Up next for me this week: preparing for Momocon in Atlanta, shipping out your shop orders, writing solicits and a marketing plan for (upcoming unannounced series,) taking final polishes on the last script for (other unannounced series,) and writing issue #1 of (a third, unannounced series.)
Things I’ve experienced lately I’d like to talk about in the comments:
The Rehearsal, My Year of Rest and Relaxation and Eileen both by the incredible
