This year on FCBD (Free Comic Book Day) I highly suggest picking up the Asylum Press book. If you have no idea about Asylum Press books you’re missing out; they put out some of the best horror and action titles you can get. So do it for your buddy Decapitated Dan and give this one a shot, instead of grabbing that Marvel or DC issue this year.
“I’m excited to be a part of Free Comic Book day for the first time, “explains Asylum publisher Frank Forte, “readers will get a great sampling of the books we publish. Some of the titles are current and others will be published this fall. It gives retailers and fans a chance to see what’s coming.”
This FCBD issue is a great way to introduce Asylum Press to retailers and fans, as it features a sampling on new and upcoming AP comics. Fearless Dawn By Steve Mannion stars our favorite new heroine battling a troop of mutants. Black Powder, a bloody frontier adventure, by Dwayne Harris, can be described as a “Buckskin Apocalypse Now.” Warlash: Origins (click here for a review of Warlash: Dark Noir #1) features a tale of Bladeviper by Royal McGraw and J.C. Wong. Farmhouse is the tale of a drifter who falls in love with an artist undergoing an experimental art therapy regimen, by Elizabeth J. Musgrave and Szymon Kudranski. In Warlash: Zombie Mutant Genesis, our armored hero goes up against a horde of brain eating monsters, by Frank Forte. EEEK! by Jason Paulos, is an anthology of retro style horror tales.
