Dave Arhar to appear at Main Street Comics and Games, Springfield Ohio!

 

That’s right! Main Street Comics and Games is proud to present writer/artist/publisher Dave Arhar of Penny Dreadful Press Saturday February 27^th from 2:00-6:00. The shop itself is just weeks away from turning one year old and as the very last of the first 365 days are being count down we decided to end this first year with a bang!

 

Main Street Comics and Games has become known as “THE HOTBED OF CREATIVE TALENT IN THE OHIO” and are very proud to add Dave to the list of great guests we have been blessed in having at the store in 2009 and early 2010.

 

Dave is from the Cleveland Ohio area and one of the most imaginative and creative talents working in independent comics today. He will be stopping by to support several of his current projects including…

 

 

 

Gothic Romance , a nice little “horror anthology” if you want to call it that features stories that are not only suspenseful but at the same time each tale takes a twisted look into a dark romance of one kind or another. One of the most talked indie books of the last year.

 

         

 

The Faustians, a truly ingenious book about a support group for those who have sold their souls to the Devil…and want out of the deal. Dark and intelligent, Dave will have the first issue of this ongoing series available to be bought and signed.

 

And finally…

                     

Franklinstein…..a story that poses the question….what if Ben Franklin and not Victor Frankenstein had discovered how to re-animate the dead by harnessing the raw power locked within a bolt of lightning? Amazing story concept and great art. Get in on the ground floor of what is sure to be a huge hit as Dave will have promotional ash can copies of this forthcoming book on hand.

 

So mark your colanders.

 

February 27th

Dave Arhar.
