LANTERN CITY signing with Trevor Crafts, Matthew Daley, Bruce Boxleitner and Mairghread Scott!
2025-12-19 15:53
It’s Steampunk Saturday at The Comic Bug as the creators of BOOM! STUDIOS LANTERN CITY come and sign copies of this critically acclaimed sci-fi adventure!
From the writings of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, to comics like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Lady Mechanika, the detailed and imagination-fueled steampunk movement has excited fans worldwide. Set in an original, sprawling steampunk world, Lantern City explores everything we love about the genre and what it takes to change a person’s place in the world.
Sander Jorve just wants to keep his wife and son safe. Living in the brutalized lower class of Lantern City means living in near constant darkness, the enormous walls of the city always looming overhead, while the upper class enjoys the elevated, interconnected towers and airships above. When Sander’s brother-in-law, the persuasive activist Kendal, convinces him to infiltrate the brutal ranks of the Guard, he’s set on a dangerous path that will test his abilities and beliefs, all in the name of making a difference for his family and his caste.
Come check out this beautifully illustrated steampunk sensation! We’ll leave a lantern on for you!

Angeltown signing with Gary Phillips
2025-12-19 15:53
Los Angeles is the birthplace of noir – because of the brighter the sunshine, the deeper the shadows, and the more deadly the mischief that goes on in the dark. Angeltown: The Nate Hollis Investigations reprints the original Vertigo mini-series in glorious black & white – the critically praised sequential mystery featuring the cool, tough private eye’s frenzied search in the shadows for a pro hoopster wanted for murder in “Baller.” Additionally, Gary Phillips (Operator 5), has penned two, original, illustrated prose short stories for this volume: “Hollywood Killer,” wherein superhero pretenders prowling Hollywood Boulevard for tips are getting bumped off, and “King Cow,” about cattle, lowriders, and babes with nazi tattoos.
Join us at our Culver City location to meet critically acclaimed crime author GARY PHILLIPS! He knows where the bodies are buried!

Artist Jeff Stokely aspires for The Spire
2025-12-19 15:53
The Spire rises out of the minds co-creators, writer Si Spurrier and cartoonist Jeff Stokely — whose Six-Gun Gorilla brought acclaim and (it’s assumed) the finest meats and cheese from throughout the land — and hails from BOOM! Studios this July.
This eight issue series focuses on Shå, the commander of the City Watch. Shå is charged with keeping the peace while she herself sidesteps prejudice, injustice and hatred for being more human than human while also more non-human than non-human. Shå is an outsider’s outsider. The Spire pivots around Shå’s investigation of a grisly murder that has taken place in the Spire’s lower levels, among the dregs, while higher up the socio-political ladder, a new power, the Baroness Tavi, ascends the throne.
