Have Mark Waid and BOOM Studios ring up your comics @ Meltdown!

January 13th, 2009

If you’re living in LA and want to hob-nob with some comics pros, you’re in luck: Mark Waid and the rest of BOOM Studios will be working at Meltdown Comics the remaining Wednesdays in January!

The idea came to promote HEXED #1, which was released in its entirety on the Internet. But the surprise trip to Meltdown was so successful, BOOM decided to keep it up the rest of the month, not just promoting HEXED but everything in the store!

“Some of the best times I had growing up came from hanging at my LCS on new comic book day. We just thought what better way to support the release of HEXED than spending our Wednesday evenings helping out at Meltdown?” said Marketing and Sales Director Chip Mosher in a press release. “And hey, who doesn’t like to get paid to hang out at comic book store?”

In the above picture, the BOOM! staff meets up with M.F. Grimm, writer of the acclaimed Vertigo graphic novel Sentences.
