We hinted at the possibility recently and now its official! On Saturday, October 29 the Westside Westfield Comics location will be welcoming artists Jeff Moy and Phil Moy to sign copies of their new IDW Publishing book Star Trek/Legion of Super-Heroes #1 (of 6). The duo will be on hand from 1 – 4pm to sign and showoff the first issue of their futuristic mashup and we hope to have plenty of copies on hand but, as always, it wouldn’t hurt to pre-order a copy or two to guarantee availablity! If you’re a Trek or Legion fan (or BOTH for that matter) you won’t want to miss it!!!
UPDATE: Wednesday, October 28 is also the release of DC Comics’ Legion: Secret Origin #1 (of 6) and whoever buys a copy of the first issue gets a Free Promo Legion Flight Ring while supplies last, so it will definitely be LEGION WEEK here at Westfield Comics!!!
To celebrate the release of Dynamite Entertainment’s Bionic Man series (issues #1 and #2 are available now), Phil Hester (who is co-scripting the book with Kevin Smith) will be chatting with fans, sketching free head sketches, illustrating 11″ by 14″ black & white commissions ($80 each), and have original artwork available for sale at our East side store on Saturday, October 22, from 1 p.m. through 4 p.m.!
Phil currently writes The Darkness for Top Cow Productions/Image Comics and has recently written Wonder Woman: Odyssey for DC Comics and penciled Godzilla for IDW Publishing. For an exhaustive list of work from The Anchor to The Wretch, check out his Comic Book DB page.

Do you miss our sidewalk sales of old? Then join us at (and just outside) our Willy Street location for our first ever Willy Street Fair this Sunday, September 18, from 11:45 a.m. until 7 p.m. We’re going to have boxes and boxes of severely inexpensive back issues, and we’ll be marking down plenty of graphic novels, too!
While we won’t have a presence on the street for the warm-up fair Saturday afternoon and evening with the other vendors, we will be extending our hours later Saturday night and earlier Sunday morning for the festivities! There will also be a parade at 11 a.m. Sunday morning!
Please note: due to the festival, our parking lot won’t be available for parking, but there is a lot of street parking along East Main Street. We’re also just a block from Madison Metro stops 1190 (Westbound) and 1959 (Eastbound) on Jenifer Street (routes 4 and 7 on the weekends).
Michael Moreci is making the trek up from Chicago to be at our East side location between noon and 4 P.M. on Saturday, July 16 to sign, chat, and possibly be up to other shenanigans, too. Moreci is the co-writer of Hoax Hunters, currently running as a back-up feature in Tim Seeley’s Hack/Slash from Image Comics, as well as the writer of the graphic novel Quarantined, recently released by AAM/Markosia. For more information about Moreci’s work, be sure to visit www.michaelmoreci.com. You can also invite your friend via this handy Facebook event!
Not to be confused for DeConnick & McCubbin
The dynamic duo of Kelly Sue DeConnick & Laurenn McCubbin (the duo that delivered unto us “Silent All These Years” in the Tori Amos-inspired anthology Comic Book Tattoo) will be at our adorable East side store signing, chatting, and generally just hanging out on Friday, May 27 from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m.
Recently announced as co-writer of the Castle graphic novel, DeConnick has also written…
This Sunday, April 23 both Westfield locations will be closed in celebration of the Easter holiday in order for our employees to observe the day with their family and friends. Both locations will open again for their normal business hours on Monday, April 24.
But, If you need some entertainment on one of the few days our doors are closed, click over to the creative folks at Neatorama.com for their story called 13 Hilarious Peeps Candy Easter Dioramas. We highly recommend the topical presentation called The Peeple VS Scott Walker!
We hope that all of our patrons have a Happy and restful Easter.
The 10 Year Anniversary of Free Comic Book Day is coming up fast and participating publishers are giving retailers and consumers alike another wide variety of titles this year.
This year’s celebration is scheduled for Saturday, May 7, the day after Marvel’s Thor Movie opens on Friday, May 6. Besides this year’s batch of free comics we’ll again be having guest artists on hand. We thank them all in advance because they’re doing us a tremendous favor and giving up their Saturday to be with us! We’ll also be selling more Blind Sketch Cards for Charity with donations benefiting The Hero Initiative. Also in attendance, we’re again hoping to have local members of the 501st Legion in their Star Wars finery, so stop in and get your picture taken with a stormtrooper!
The store hours for both Westfield Comics locations will be 10am – 6pm for the event.
