    SDCC DEBUTS

    sevenholesTITLE: 7 HOLES FOR AIR
    DESCRIPTION: Bill Paxton & Arcana Comics presents 7 Holes for Air. Bob Rourke is the kind of man they don’t make anymore. He’s a tough son of a b****: A fifty-year-old steelworker who smokes, drinks, and never complains, even when he’s in pain. After a persistent headache sends him to a doctor for the first time in his life, Bob learns he’s facing the end. With disease ravaging his body, Bob soldiers on at home, at work and in an alternate Spaghetti Western reality in which his real-life antagonists become actual villains. Now Bob will stare down death the only way he knows how – with grit and determination – as he struggles against the ghosts of his past and the desire to leave something behind for his wife and daughter.
    NOTE: BILL PAXTON will be signing at the Arcana Booth, 2415, on Thursday during SDCC from 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm!

    gloomTITLE: THE GLOOM
    DESCRIPTION: MTV Comics and Arcana Studio present THE GLOOM. Once called a ‘Mel Brooks movie of a comic’ by COMICS INTERNATIONAL, acclaimed creators Tony Lee (Doctor Who) & Dan Boultwood (It Came!) return to the hero that brought them together! In 1940’s Manhattan he’s the only vigilante blocking the Vermillion and his N@zi allies from their plan to rule the world with ATOMIC ZEPPELINS! No pulp hero is safe from parody, in the comic series that once had the review ‘Buy this book – sell a kidney if you have to!’
    NOTE: Tony Lee, writer of many of IDW’s Doctor Who books and others will be signing during SDCC.

    devilisdueTITLE: THE DEVIL IS DUE IN DREARY
    DESCRIPTION: Jack and Tino, two strangers with a questionable past arrive in the reclusive town of Dreary where they unknowingly fulfill a prophecy that the town believes will precede the coming of the apocalypse. They are caught up in a whirlwind of judgment and paranoia, and it’s a race against time to escape with their lives. The Devil is Due in Dreary is a music rich ride through the folklore of the old west. With rattling desert bones, pompadours, classic cars, and pearl handled pistols, it’s an action packed rockabilly take on the classic western.
    NOTE: David Parkin and Daryl Freimark will be signing during the convention.

    headsmash2TITLE: HEADSMASH
    DESCRIPTION: In the lurid city of Ares, Smash is a trusted officer of the Horde, a brutal syndicate. As an angry orphan, he was hand-selected by Maurice, the Horde’s capo, to be groomed for leadership.

He returns, armed with a serum that gives superhuman strength, and vows that he won’t rest until his family is safe and revenge is taken upon those who betrayed him.

    NOTE: In addition to the SDCC Exclusive cover by Joe Perez, we will be debuting the regular edition of the book, featuring the art of legendary Tim Bradstreet! Check the Arcana Comics signing schedule for autograph times.
