Press Release
Arcana Comics is preparing for FREE COMIC BOOK DAY 2013, where we will debut The Steam Engines of Oz, a gorgeous re-imagining of the world of Oz, set 100 years after the events from The Wizard of Oz, a story we all love and cherish.
FCBD, however, is not the end of Oz… not by a longshot! In June, we will be releasing The Steam Engines of Oz issue 1, taking place immediately after the events of the FCBD edition. Don’t worry, though, we’ll have a recap of the FCBD events, PLUS make sure that all readers have read the FCBD story.
Based on initial orders of The Steam Engines of Oz FCBD, we’ve broken all of our previous records for FCBD. Please make sure your local comic book shop orders plenty of copies of The Steam Engines of Oz Issue 1!
