PRESS RELEASE –
This year, Halloween ComicFest (HCF) features a whole new selection of 30 comic book titles for the industry’s most anticipated fall event taking place Saturday, October 28th, 2017 at participating comic shops worldwide.
Of the 30 titles overall, 18 are Full Size and 12 are Mini Comics. All will be available for free on Saturday, October 28th and the Mini Comics will be available for purchase in packs of 25 for $4.99 at the beginning of October, which are perfect to give to trick-or-treaters on Halloween.
“We’re excited at the range of titles with this year’s Halloween ComicFest,” said Halloween ComicFest spokesperson Michael Moccio. “In additional to the all ages Mini Comics, featuring popular characters like Donald Duck and Casper the Friendly Ghost, the Full Size Comics feature a strong showing with properties like Batman, Thor, and Hellboy! With so many fans introducing their friends and family to comics and local comic shops for the first time at events like Halloween ComicFest, it’s important the titles reflect the varied interests of people coming to stores.”
A complete listing of all the HCF titles, including the HCF Commemorative T-Shirt by Eisner Award-winning artist Francesco Francavilla, can be found in the July issue of Diamond Comic Distributors’ PREVIEWS catalog, on sale at all local comic shops on June 28th, 2017.
