EMPOWERED vol.8 now on sale (at last)!

After a long and somewhat embarrassing week of trials and tribulations, Empowered vol.8, the latest installment of my ongoing "sexy superhero comedy" series published by Dark Horse Comics, is now available on the shelves of your Local Comics Store! Huzzah! Note also that the digital version of the book is on sale right now from the Dark Horse Digital Store:  digital.darkhorse.com/profile/…

Alas, the print edition won't be on sale at conventional bookstores (or Amazon.com*) until the end of December at the earliest. You can order a (print) copy online right now via Dark Horse's retail website: www.tfaw.com/Profile/Empowered…

More info on Empowered vol.8 here: www.darkhorse.com/Books/19-253… And here's a 7-page preview excerpt: www.darkhorse.com/Books/Previe…



Anyhoo, just thought I'd post a journal in case Empowered readers wanted to weigh in on the book; feel free to fire away in the comments below. I'm even more curious than usual to see what folks thought of this installment, as I never sent its pages out to the now-on-hiatus Top-Secret Empowered BCC E-Mailing List. Yeahp, no one other than the three people who worked on the book have actually read the damn thing...



Here's the exclusive (ooh, ah!), extended version of Empowered vol.8's solicitation copy:

Costumed crimefighter Empowered, her week already ruined by the grueling ordeal of "Superdead Boot Camp," finds herself roped into a tragic and desperate scheme by her grief-stricken teammate Sistah Spooky. On a reckless journey from a terrifying alien arsenal to the even-more-terrifying depths of hell itself, can the bickering duo free the soul of Spooky's slain lover from eternal damnation—or have our mismatched superheroines impulsively blundered into a (quite literally) hellish trap?



In closing, I must of course paste in the requisite general-purpose Emp-related floggery: Print copies of Empowered's first seven volumes (and numerous one-shots in comics format) can be found on the shelves of your Local Comics Retailer or bookstore, or online at Dark Horse's retail website www.tfaw.com/Search?_results_u… or on Amazon.com www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_nos… .

 

All the existing Empowered books can be purchased rather more cheaply in digital form as well, via the Dark Horse Digital store: digital.darkhorse.com/search/?…

*Though digital versions of Empowered vol.8 are available immediately for the Kindle www.amazon.com/Empowered-8-Ada… and Nook: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/empow…
