SUMMARY:Come Check Out Inferno Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:INFERNO LOS ANGELES is a 136 page\, full color graphic novel published in a deluxe over-sized hardcover edition by NeoClassics Press.\nOver 700 years ago\, the poet Dante Allighieri found his way to the Underworld from the dark wood outside his native Florence\, and the adventure he recorded in The Inferno still haunts us to this day. \nNow\, in modern times\, a new traveler finds his gateway to Hell beneath the urban jungle of the “City of Angels”. Inferno Los Angeles revisits Dante’s journey\, weaving new characters and contemporary scenarios with the timelessly familiar scenes Dante described. It is an adventure of pure imagination\, fraught with obstacles\, monsters\, horrific visions and prophecies — all visualized in an epic graphic style. Journey with him\, as each step down this human whirlpool brings new dangers and monstrosities\, as we delve ever deeper into the torments of our own minds.

DESCRIPTION:On January 24th\, Comics and Comics will bring Sketch Fighter back to THE COMIC BUG.\nGuest artists include ANDREW ROBINSON (The Fifth Beatle)\, LIVIO RAMONDELLI (Transformers) RAFAEL NAVARRO\, SCOTT LOBDELL\, and RALPH MIRANDA. All of the artists will create a drawing prior to the game and these drawings along with all art made during the game will be auctioned off and given to the HERO INITIATIVE. \nThese artists may be the best in their field when it comes to 30-day deadlines\, but how will they do at sketching in 60 seconds or less? Likewise\, their comedian tag-team partners may be quick on their feet on stage\, but when their mic is traded for a marker\, will they bomb? Only one team will emerge victorious and crowned Sketch Fighter Champions. \nFollowing the game and the auction\, the Comics and Comics stand-up show will take place\, featuring the best all fanboy stand-up comedy in the Multiverse from JOE STARR\, RON SWALLOW\, ED GREER\, TIM POWERS\, SCOTT LOBDELL and TOM FRANCK.

SUMMARY:Delinquents at The Comic Bug!
DESCRIPTION:The Comic Bug is proud to be one of the West Coast representatives carrying the exclusive Ass-Map cover of Valiant Comics’ Delinquents #1!\n“We dreamed of a comic book with a big ass on the cover and now it has come true!”  says Mike Wellman\, co-owner of  The Comic Bug.  “Now I hope it is the right ass!” \nThe West Coast shops will carry and exclusive cover with half of the ass-map and a few lucky East Coast stores will carry the other half. \nGet your copy signed by JAMES ASMUS and also get a FREE copy of the chromium cover of Armor Wars #1! \n \n  \nDELINQUENTS #1 (OF 4) REG RIVERA (VF) \nVALIANT ENTERTAINMENT LLC \n(W) James Asmus\, Fred Van (A) Kano (CA) Paolo Rivera \nConfrontation! Devastation! Inebriation! (And the lost secret of the hobos too!) Oh dear god no\, you’d better get out of the way…because here come the Delinquents! \nQuantum and Woody are the world’s worst superhero team. Archer & Armstrong are a mismatched pair of conspiracy-busting adventurers. When a mysterious force collides these ill-suited and irresponsible “heroes” for a cross-country race through the darkest corners of American mythology\, all hell is bound to break loose. Can two busted pairs become four of kind in time to defeat the Hobo King\, save the day\, and make it back home in time for Happy Hour? Let’s hope so…’cause these guys make a really\, really bad team. (And you don’t even want to know about the goat.) \n  \n
