Liss' Phantom Reporter fights crime in spats.
San Antonio writer DAVID LISS, known for his historical thrillers, has made his comics debut — and he’ll be on hand Wednesday, Sept. 2, from 6-8 p.m. at ATOMIC COMICS & GAMING to sign books and have some face time with true believers.
Liss’ book is Marvel’s Daring Mystery Comics 70th Anniversary Special #1, which features the never-before-told origins of the Golden Age hero The Phantom Reporter. Check out NEWSARAMA’s preview, including some advance pages and an interview with Liss. And while you’re clicking around, why not put your eyes on the great art by Jason Armstrong and cover by Clint Langley.
For those not familiar with Liss’ track record, he’s an Edgar Award-winning novelist whose work includes A Conspiracy of Paper and Whiskey Rebels. In other words, a top-notch Alamo City literary talent.
Atomic Comics is located at 4904 Broadway, across from Central Market. Their number is 210-826-3223.
I’ll be there. I have enjoyed Liss’ mysteries and I love good Golden Age type Marvel stuff (heck, any good Golden Age anything).
Thanks for this link. Love the Twelve characters. And I’ve been reading David Liss since his first book. Great news.
