Press Release
Archie Comics, the most progressive and innovative comic book publisher in today’s market and home to some of the most recognizable pop culture characters in the world, are very excited to get the word out about The Art of Betty and Veronica. So much so, that in the coming weeks is not one or two, but THREE signings at three locations.
The book tour kicks off at Barnes & Noble in White Plains, NY as part of a book fair to help raise funds for the local White Plains Performing Arts Center. Archie Comics is happy to be a part of such a great event to support the local arts community and spread holiday cheer Archie-style with FREE sketches for all who purchase a copy. Co-editors Victor Gorelick (Archie Comics Editor-in-Chief/Co-President) and Craig Yoe (Eisner award-winning comic book historian) will be joined by Archie fan-favorite artists Dan Parent (Kevin Keller) and Fernando Ruiz (Life with Archie). A gift wrapping table will be available to assist with your holiday shopping.
Midtown Comics’ downtown location will host Gorelick and Yoe as part of their Midtown Comics Book Club with The Art of Betty and Veronica being featured as their book of the month. Those attending can purchase a copy for 25% off and have it signed after a panel discussion/Q&A with the book’s creators.
After the New Year, the foursome will be guests at The Strand for another panel discussion/Q&A at the famed bookstore. A purchase of the art book is your ticket in to the event which is sure to be a lively and informative walk through Archie’s 70-plus year history.
Be sure to make it to one of these events and add this beautifully designed hardcover art book to your collection which is destined to become a perennial favorite. Not only does The Art of Betty and Veronica make the perfect gift, but the chance to meet the creators and get it signed will make it that much more special.
