On the weekend of May 5th, you have a couple of things keeping you busy; standing in line to watch Spider-Man III, and Free Comic Book Day. I hope you don’t think this makes for a busy weekend for you, because Robert Kirkman has you beat by a mile – actually several thousand miles.
Over that weekend, Kirkman will be making a 72 hour non-stop 5-city tour across the United States to promote his new series, The Astounding Wolf-Man. It starts in New York, then moves to Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles and finally the Bay area of San Francisco.
THE ASTOUNDING WOLF-MAN chronicles the life of workaholic CEO Gary Hampton. While on a rare family vacation, he’s bitten by a werewolf. Cursed to live his nights as a monster, Gary works to use these evil powers for the greater good. The story is part superhero, part horror and a whole lot of fun.
