Big Planet Comics was proud to host another fun signing on May 26 when Jerry Gaylord and his wife Penelope came to Big Planet Comics in College Park to promote their new Boom! comic, Fanboys vs. Zombies (written by Sam Humphries). Jerry is the penciller and Penelope is the inker on the book. Jerry brought a huge selection of art for the book with him. Not only does Penelope do the inking on Fanboys vs. Zombies but she also does a lot of her own art. Jerry and Penelope live over on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and do a lot of local shows (try to catch them if you can!) They both said they would love to come back to Big Planet in the fall...

Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) is an annual event when publishers print a bunch of free comics for stores to give away to reward comic readers, and hopefully get some new comic readers too! 2012 was the best FCBD we’ve ever had!

Another awesome signing took place at Big Planet Comics with Jeremy Whitley (Princeless) and Jorge Aguirre (Giants Beware!)

Well, we had a great time when Justin Jordan and Tradd Moore came to Big Planet Comics on April 14 to celebrate the release of the first trade paperback of their great new series, The Strange Talent of Luther Strode.
