Solar Flare Season 1: Fort Myers - Charity Variant Preorder

The first Solar Flare graphic novel (collecting issues 1-6) is coming out in early November.  It's going to be called, Solar Flare Season 1: Fort Myers. As many of you may know, Fort Myers Florida was hit head-on in early September by Hurricane Irma.  This category 4 storm caused so much damage and loss to many local businesses and families. The Solar Flare team and Scout Comics have come up with a plan to help. We've done a special 400 copy printing of the graphic novel were $15.00 of the $19.99 collected will be donated to two, local Ft. Myers charities. The two charities are United Way of Southwest Florida and the Harry Chapin Food Bank. The variant cover was done by the amazing artist Ben Bishop (TMNT, Drawing Blood, The Aggregate) and is pictured here.

Convention Round up and more news!

Hey All! I hope everyone is doing well despite all the crazy hurricanes and happenings that have occurred in the past few weeks. It's been a busy few month for us here at Solar Flare.  We've been working away on the Season 2 & 3 while traveling the country doing conventions and comic store signings.  New York Comic Con is typically the last big comic con of the year and while we weren't able to attend this year because of illness, we were represented by our publisher Scout Comics. They even released an exclusive cover of Solar Flare Season 2 #1.  We'll have some for sale on the website in the next week or so. Early next month marks the release of not only the regular covers Season 2 #1, but also our first graphic novel Solar Flare Season 1: Fort Myers.  We plan on doing a limited edition cover (Ben Bishop from TMNT, The Aggregate, & Drawing Blood fame) for this graphic novel (400 total) where $15.00 of the $19.99 go to local Ft. Myers charities (United Way of Southwest Florida and Harry Chapin Food Bank of Ft. Myers). As many of you know, Fort Myers took a direct hit from Hurricane Irma in September and being that its my hometown and the location of where the first arc of Solar Flare takes place, we thought it would be awesome to give back to the community.  Stay tuned for more details on where to purchase the book. Now that convention season is concluded, I plan on updating things here much more frequently.  Talk with everyone soon!

Happy June Everyone!

Since my last update the Solar Flare team has been quite busy. Branko and JM have been busy working on pages for issue #10 while I'm about finished scripting issue #11.  We had a very successful Nickel City Comic Con in Buffalo New York and also just wrapped up MegaCon 2017 in sunny Orlando Florida. We got the news last Friday that Solar Flare #2 has officially sold out and like issue #1, we're going back to print with a brand new cover! Issue #3 comes out on June 14th and I will be doing a in-store signing (from 3pm to 7pm) with Mindbender writer James Pruett at Acme Comics in Longwood FL. From there we'll be traveling to Charlotte North Carolina for Heroes Convention 2017! Be sure to check our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/solarflarecomic) for our convention schedule and breaking news! Until then. enjoy a look at issue #8's cover!
