Our mini-comic was just sent to the printers and should be arriving
sometime within the next week. We are producing this as a preview to our
VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE graphic novel that will be available next year. I was
thinking that I would like to get it to comic shops, at least locally,
to give away as part of Free Comic Book Day or any other comics or
horror-related events this year. Due to timing, I will not be working
through Diamond and will be working with the stores on my own.
If any retailers would like a copy of the mini-comic to look at, or
would like copies for their store, please vist http://bit.ly/
Thanks!

About Vampire Apocalypse
VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE will be a 140-page full-color graphic novel
based on the critically acclaimed Vampire Apocalypse book series written
by Derek Gunn. New Baby Productions licensed the graphic novel rights to
the novels. The graphic novel is scheduled for an early 2011 release.
VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE is a profound re-imagining of the vampire genre
that adds a touch of science fiction to the formula. In a dystopian
near-future world, war has left the earth depleted of resources. Fuel is
rationed, states close their borders, towns die, and technology
stagnates. As Americans struggle to cope with these problems, a sinister
clan of vampires emerges from the shadows and begins to take over
community-after-
and death to those who don't. The vampires use a serum and subservient
Thralls to control the population, wall the cities off, and breed humans
as stock. Thralls are humans who have been bitten but have not fully
become vampires. They have enhanced speed and strength and are used to
guard the vampires during the day when they could be vulnerable to
attack.
VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE combines familiar themes and elements from such
past vampiric successes as Underworld, 30 Days of Night, and Blade. The
novels have been optioned for a film.
About Free Comic Book Day
As the name implies, Free Comic Book Day is a single day when
participating comic book specialty shops across North America and around
the world give away comic books absolutely free to anyone who comes into
their shops. Free Comic Book Day is held the first Saturday in May each
year and is administered by a panel representing all parts of the comic
book industry: retailers, publishers, suppliers, and Diamond Comic
Distributors. Each year, publishers apply to provide comic books at cost
to retailers, who in turn give them away for free. Diamond handles
marketing and logistics for the event, shipping comics to shops and
handling marketing and PR for the event.
The VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE mini-comic will not be made available to
retailers through Diamond, but will be made available at New Baby
Productions' expense for the Free Comic Book Day event or other comics
or horror-related events.
