We're off to a great start here at CBJ and we're happy to announce a number of awesome events that will be taking place starting this month and giving us a healthy jump into good ol' 2010. This will most certainly be our best year yet and we refuse to stop working for you! Let's continue to turn the comics industry on it's head and have a fun time doing it!
So what's all this about? Well for starters, this month we've got Chris "G" Giarrusso (G-Man, Mini Marvels) and Jacob Chabot (X-Babies, Skullboy Army) coming in to sign their books and do some fabulous sketches for ya'll. These guys really are great and masters of their craft. After that we'll be hosting the OFFICIAL release of Choker, the new book by writer Ben McCool and artist Ben Templesmith who will both be here promoting their book and hanging out with us all day. Topping off our January and February signings is the Alterna Showcase featuring all the top talent from Alterna Comics including Michael Bracco, Mike Czerniawski, Nic Jajic, Jeff McComsey and Peter Simeti.
For all additional information on all these events (and there's a lot) keep reading! Also, the fun doesn't stop here, we've got other events planned for the coming months including the Magic the Gathering Release Party for Worldwake and a tailgate type event for early February (we'll fill you in on that some more next week). Read on!

CREATOR OF THE MONTH - BRIAN AZZARELLO
Our creator of the month for the month of January is none other than writer Brian Azzarello!

That's ok though because all Brian Azzarello books for are 20% OFF FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY. Some notable works include 100 Bullets, the Joker HC and Superman For Tomorrow.
