(02-14-10) - Wow, it has been eighteen years ago
today that Underground Video Network was launched on the local access channel in
Kenton, Ohio at 11:30pm Friday
February 14, 1992 after seeing "Wayne's World".
All that was broadcast that night was an "EXIT" sign to see if it
would even work.
(We did have viewers that night and you know who you are.)
Then it grew to what it is today and I just want to thank all the crews that
have been involved with each incarnation over the years to keep this alive
today.
It would not have been what it is with out your help.
Thanks
Richard
THANK YOU FOR WATHCING OUR SHOW
TUNE IN NEXT WEEK FOR ANOTHER ACTION FILLED EPISODE OF:
Underground Video Network

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 27th 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.
