Hey there, y'all. I'm pretty psyched about the newest labor of love coming from Scott Allie and Dark Horse. Exurbia is wicked fun and Kevin McGovern's art is funky (in a good way). I'm also excited to announce that we've got a few copies that include Book Plates that are signed by Allie and McGovern!.

At TFAW.com, we're all about the extras–so we're giving a couple of them away. One will be given away to one of our Twitter followers on Monday (follow us here), and the other will go to a lucky person who posts a comment on this blog article (also awarded on Monday 10/12) . After that we're going to ship the rest of these special copies of Exurbia at no additional cost while supplies last.

New Reviews of This Week's Releases!
Josh and I headed to the Milwaukie store for this week's reviews, where they had me stand on a step-stool. I'm still not as tall as Josh. This week's featured new releases: Exurbia by Scott Allie, Irredeemable #7, Hellboy Library Edition Volume 3, the Serenity Little Damn Heroes Jayne Animated Maquette, Deadpool #16, X-Men vs. Agents of Atlas #1, and the My Name Is Bruce 12" action figure! Check them out:
Media Release -- Exurbia creators Scott Allie (Solomon Kane, The Fog, Devil's Footprints) and Kevin McGovern are taking a trip down the West Coast and stopping at several comic shops along the way!
Meet the editor of books like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Umbrella Academy, The Goon, and Hellboy along with artist Kevin McGovern as they sign copies of their strange and paranoid tale, Exurbia.
I recently got to sit down and chat (via email) with Kevin McGovern, the artist for Scott Allie's newest project, Exurbia! Haven't heard of Kevin? That's because Exurbia is his big debut - working with Scott Allie, for the third-largest comic-book publisher in the country, Dark Horse Comics.
Jealous yet?
Exurbia is a crazy-unique comic, and it's gotten some positive response from folks like Gilbert Hernandez, who wrote, "Exurbia boldly continues and transmogrifies the type of lunatic stories that only comics can do with any justice. Try as films and TV might, here is the real stuff. Bravo and yikes at the same time."
Read on as Kevin takes us through his 13-year journey of bringing Exurbia to print!
