So after what feels like years of hard work, Brian & Bobbi will officially be in stores this Wednesday, March 16th. Mark your calendar. And for those of you heading out to the comic shop, make sure you pick up a copy. Word on the street is it's gonna be selling out quick, so make sure you grab it while you can. And if your shop doesn't have it in stock, you can always ask them to order it for you with the Diamond Code DEC101071.


And as a way of saying thanks to everyone who's been so great and supportive in helping Brian & Bobbi get to where it is today, stop on back here on tomorrow for a special announcement on what my next project will be.

So the month of December is soon coming to a close, and so too is pre-order time for Brian & Bobbi. In these last couple of days, I thought I'd share some exciting stuff worth mentioning. Here we go.

First up, the Brian & Bobbi Trailer.

Featuring the song Superboy & Supergirl by Tullycraft. We put this together to give people a little sneak peek at the book. Feel free to give it a watch.

Next, Brian & Bobbi is trending higher than Family Guy on Google. And I think that's a pretty big deal seeing as how, at least in my opinion, Brian & Stewie are the two most interesting characters on the show.

Brian & Bobbi also got another special nod from Diamond. They've already made Brian & Bobbi one of the Spotlight Features for the month, but now it's also on their list of Graphic Novels for young adults age 13 and up. So all you family friendly comic shops out there, be sure to take notice. Brian & Bobbi's a great book for your younger readers, Diamond says so.

The book also got recognized by Examiner.com in their Guide to the February Previews Catalog. It was one of only nine indie titles picked this month.

And we've got some new reviews for Brian & Bobbi. We have our second review from the guys over at Coverless. Then there's this one, a really great review from Black Snake Studios, and this one from Young Adult Books Central. It only reaffirms Diamond picking the book as one of the graphic novels for young adults.

So in these last few days, I think a rush is in order. Everyone should head out to their local comic shop and pre-order their copy of Brian & Bobbi. The special edition that was printed for Steel City sold out in record time, and my publisher is anticipating the same thing will happen once the books hit shelves. That means the only way you can be sure you'll have your copy this February is to pre-order it now.

And while I know there are some of you without local comic shops out there, don't worry. There are tons of places online where you can pre-order the book (And get a great deal on it). Here are just a few.

Things From Another World (We actually made it all the way up to #23 on these guys Hottest Pre-Order List)
And for your international folks.

The list keeps going. These are just the first couple I came across. Chances are if you have a favorite online comic shop, you can find Brian & Bobbi on it.

So with just a few days left, and so many options, make sure you don't miss out on getting your copy of Brian & Bobbi.

New York Comic Con is just a few days away, so I thought I'd take a second to let everyone know about all the exciting stuff coming up. Here are the bullet points.

-I will be at New York Comic Con. I've got my professional pass and I'll be walking the floor on Friday and Saturday. If you see me, feel free to come up and say hi. There are a few people I have to meet with at the show, but if there's anyone else who wants to talk with me about Brian & Bobbi that I haven't already made arrangements with, feel free to email me at amwilson81@yahoo.com and we can set something up.

-The guys at 215 Ink have been lining up dates for a small book tour in the coming months. We'll have the exact times, dates, and locations soon. But I figured I'd let you know there is still room in the schedule if anyone wants their shop to added to the list. Again, just shoot me an email and we'll see if we can work something out (especially if you're in the New York/New Jersey/Pennsylvania area).

-We'll be doing a special limited edition version of Brian & Bobbi for the book tour. It'll be an exclusive only available at signings or directly through 215 Ink, so if you want a copy make sure you pick one up before they're gone.

-While I won't have a table at New York Comic Con, I just got word that I will be at the 215 Ink table for Steel City Con, coming up in December. More details on that to follow.

-Fernando and I are making some great progress on the new series, which I can now tell you is titled G.C.D. We're more than half way through the first issue and I'll do another post soon with some of my latest lettering screen shots.

-And probably the biggest news of all, BRIAN & BOBBI GOT ACCEPTED BY DIAMOND. It'll be in the December issue of Preview with issue 3 of 215 Ink's popular new series Massive Awesome by Stephen Lindsay (Issue 1 of which is on shelves now, and issue 2 is in this month's Previews). I'll keep you all posted on pre-order details, order numbers, and stuff like that, as soon as I know more.

So there you have it. All my pre-New York Comic Con news fit to print. There are one or two other little things worth mentioning, but I'll save them for the Post-New York Comic Con Wrap Up next week. So come back soon to hear the rest of the news.
