Dan Con 2012 Report

Dan Con has come and gone. Thanks to all the folks that came out and supported the release of House of the Wolfman. The Dan Con exclusive sketch covers were a hit and here are some of the covers that were done and sold at the show:


And as a special treat we got one done by a friend of ours, Justin Castaneda.
We're going to be doing Free Comic Book day at First Aid comics again this year and we've discussed having a sketch cover available exclusively for James at First Aid. As soon as we get the artwork done we'll post it here and on the website. Our next show however will be the highly anticipated C2E2 at the McCormick Place.

House of the Wolfman

House of the Wolfman is now available for purchase!

March 4th Instant Press will be at Dan Con promoting the new release and as a special, we'll have an exclusive sketch cover for this convention. Stop on by and see about getting your copy and maybe even getting your own personalized cover while you're at it.

We'll also have prints available commemorating the 10th anniversary of Instant Press done by Dann Phillips (Starbomb).

Coming Soon

Distant Collected

This year we at Instant Press Comics will not just be celebrating our 10th anniversary, but also the 5th anniversary of our best selling title, Distant. For the past four years we've been selling several sets of the popular mini series at conventions and the fans have been asking for a collected edition. To celebrate the 5th year, we are going to finally collect all four issues and the FCBD ashcan "Not So Distant" under one cover. There will also be new pinups as well as new illustrations by Manuel Preitano. Look forward to this collected volume in March of 2012 for just $9.95. You can check out the official site for more information and also on how to order your very own copy.

10 Years Of Instant Press Comics

Happy New Year to everybody out there.

This year is a special year for Instant Press Comics. We are celebrating 10 years of publishing! Keep an eye here as we let you know where we will be signing at and what goodies we have coming out for the celebration.

Without a doubt we will be celebrating the fifth year of Distant, our most popular title here. For the first time, we will be collecting all 4 issues, not to mention Not-So-Distant, the free mini comic giveaway as well as pinups new and old and a brand new wraparound cover. We'll give you more details on that as it becomes available.

Further more, we'll be putting together for the first time in 10 years an annual book. That's right. This year we'll have Instant Press 2012 for sale. It's going to feature, as the original book did, new short stories from all the creators at Instant Press Comics. We'll have Starbomb, WhiteKnife, Laundry Detergent Man, Unit 1, Dorks and everybody's favorite, The Wolfman. We're all excited about this one. After 10 years we're going to get it right once again.

So there you have it. As the year goes we'll post more news on what's to be expected. For those of you waiting on the edge of your seats after the exciting cliffhanger in Starbomb issue 2 you'll be happy to know that issue 3 is being worked on and we'll have that out too.

Dan Con 2012

Instant Press is a confirmed guest for Dan Con 2012. This past year was a remarkable start for a fresh new show. Decapitated Dan was a very generous host and he really knew how to cater to the artist and exhibitors as well as the attendee's. This show has quickly become a must for convention goers. Take a look at highlights from earlier this year if you're not convinced here.

Here's what Dan Con has to say about Instant Press Comics:
"Instant Press Comics is celebrating its 10^th Anniversary in 2012. The party kicks off at Dan Con! IPC publishes a variety of genres: superhero (Starbomb, Unbelievable Laundry Detergent Man), manga (Distant, The Mysteries of Bakerville), action (White Knife) and cartoon (Dorks, Bride of the Wolfman). New books for 2012 include House of the Wolfman, Distant Collected Trade, and Instant Press 2012. Artist Rene Castellano and writer David Gruba will be in attendance.

FallCon 2011

It's always sad once the last convention of the year passes by. Instant Press was representing in MN this past weekend at FallCon and boy was it fun. Dave Gruba, Dann Phillips and Rene Castellano were in attendance and much fun was had. We hope to bring more to the table next year so as we plan our schedules for next year enjoy this look at our season closer.
