Welcome back to ’Warped Week, a recap of what we’ve been up to at ’Warp Central during the past seven days. If you missed anything, now’s the perfect time to catch up!
Monday was the 2018 celebration of National Comic Book Day, a holiday whose origin is shrouded in mystery—but it was the perfect time to remind you of the great comic titles we have to offer!
Tuesday, we told you about a late addition to our 2017 publishing schedule: Reviews of a She-Devil: A Look at Red Sonja Adventures Past and Present, an e-book collection of my Red Sonja comic book reviews that first appeared at the site Comics for Sinners, plus bonus material exclusive to this release. It’s our way of celebrating the 45th anniversary of Robert E. Howard’s redheaded She-Devil With a Sword, who debuted in Marvel’s Conan the Barbarian #23, way back in 1972.
On Wednesday, we let you know that Richard C. White—author of the SWC titles For a Few Gold Pieces More, Terra Incognito: A Guide to Building the Worlds of Your Imagination, The Chronicles of the Sea Dragon Special, and Troubleshooters Incorporated: Night Stalkings—would be appearing at the Archon 41 convention, which should be wrapping up this weekend even as you’re reading this post.
And for Thursday, we reminded you of Tales to Sorta Tremble By, the next release in our SWC Horror Bites imprint. This one’s a collection of long-lost mini tales that first appeared in the pages of 1950s horror comics, when publishers needed to insert text pages in their releases to meet U.S. postal requirements for mailing magazines (weird, right?).
And that’s the week. What’s coming next? You’ll have to keep checking this blog during the days ahead—or join us on Sunday for the next installment of ’Warped Week. See you then!
