Happy Halloween, Third Eye Faithful!

We've got a stacked weekend of Halloween Third Eye fun for you guys, and it all starts on Friday with our HUGE Bedlam launch party with creators NICK SPENCER (Morning Glories, Thief of Thieves, Ultimate X-Men) and RILEY ROSSMO (Green Wake, Debris, Cowboy Ninja Viking).

We're also kicking off Day 1 of Halloween Comic-Fest this Friday, with over a thousand FREE Halloween Comic-Fest comics to give out to YOU! 

And, of course, we can't just rot your brains, so we're going to be giving out candy as well! What can I say? We love Halloween here! 

Of course, that's not all, we'll be continuing the Halloween festivities with DAY 2 at the ANNAPOLIS COMIC-CON: Halloween Special!

This is by far, our favorite season, and we'd love to have you guys, our Third Eye fam, around to celebrate with us! 

Read on below for full details on all the festivities! 


10/26: 7PM-9PM
*First 20 in Line Get a FREE Mystery Gift!*
BEDLAM #1 Launch Party w/ Nick Spencer & Riley Rossmo

Folks, you've been hearing us rant, rave, and just all around gush over how excited we are about the new IMAGE COMICS series BEDLAM. Now, the release is finally here, and we cannot wait to share this incredible, and innovative new series with you. 

What's even cooler is NICK SPENCER and RILEY ROSSMO have made time in their schedules to join us for the release of the book. Nick is flying in from England for this, and Riley is flying in from Canada, so needless to say, we're pretty flattered that they're making the trip to see us here at Third Eye!

Many of you may already know Nick from his work on the incredible IMAGE series, MORNING GLORIES, and many of you are familiar with Riley from his recent work on DEBRIS and GREEN WAKE. 

Both of these guys are two of the most talented folks in Image's stable right now, and their new series, BEDLAM, deserves all of the hype and accolades it's been receiving 

What's BEDLAM about? Meet Fillmore Press, aka the homicidal masked maniac known as Madder Red. Madder Red was the epitome of evil, as he terrorized the town of BEDLAM for several years, reigning a senseless crusade of crime and violence down upon the citizens there. Women, children, no one was safe from Madder Red. And, then, he was caught... and cured, or at least so he's been told.

Now, released back into society due to some kind of legal loophole, Fillmore can't escape the nightmares of his former crimes, but when a vicious serial murderer is hunting the senior citizens of BEDLAM... he decides to give his life a new meaning: he offers his assistance in tracking the killer to the police. 

But, is Fillmore cured? Will these senseless crimes awaken the beast within? That's the question that BEDLAM asks.

Folks: imagine if THE JOKER was cured, and let back into Gotham City. This is what BEDLAM is all about.

If you're a fan of BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE, NEMESIS, IRREDEEMABLE, or STRANGE TALENT OF LUTHER STRODE, you'll love this book.

Riley's artwork is INCREDIBLE, and brings a nightmarish view of BEDLAM to the reader, while Spencer takes Madder Red to some of the darkest, most depraved corners that we've seen in a comic.

Get the BEDLAM #1 Third Eye Variant Starting Wednesday 10/24
Not only is this comic a fantastic read, but it's also getting tremendous buzz, and you know what that normally means for IMAGE series. Starting Wednesday (today) 10/24, we'll be making our BEDLAM #1 Third Eye variant available to you guys at just $3.50 cover price, so you can snag yourself a copy for the signing this Friday! 

This is a custom cover that is only available at our stores, from series artist RILEY ROSSMO, and it features our own little Third Eye mascot wielding some very BEDLAM-y fangs.

10/26 7PM-9PM
Halloween Comic-Fest 2012 Day 1
Also kicking off this Friday is the first ever HALLOWEEN COMIC-FEST. This is an event that is very similar in tone to Free Comic Book Day, but on a slightly smaller scale. 

We've worked in collaboration with many of our publishing partners, and they've provided us with hundreds upon hundreds of specially printed Halloween-themed comics for us to give out FREE to you this Friday and Saturday! 

Just like the FCBD books are made specially for FCBD, so are these great HCF comics. 

We'll be giving out plenty of FREE HCF comics, plenty of candy, and hosting some very special Mystery Sales on select items beginning at 6PM and running until 9PM.

And, of course, this is also happening at the same time as our huge BEDLAM #1 Launch Party with creators NICK SPENCER & RILEY ROSSMO!

10/27 10AM-6PM (Annapolis Comic-Con)
10/27 11AM-8PM (Third Eye Comics)
Halloween Comic-Fest Day 2 & Annapolis Comic-Con

The fun continues, Third Eye Faithful, on Saturday 10/27 at the special Halloween-themed ANNAPOLIS COMIC-CON, as well as Third Eye Comics!

Not only will we be giving out candy and comics at both ANNAPOLIS COMIC-CON and THIRD EYE COMICS, but we'll have all the other awesomeness that is ANNAPOLIS COMIC-CON.

Third Eye Comics will be Open 11AM-8PM 10/27 & Celebrating Halloween Comic-Fest during the ANNAPOLIS COMIC-CON!
Just a heads up, because we've gotten a few questions: Third Eye will most definitely be open normal hours for the ANNAPOLIS COMIC-CON. The store is only 5 minutes from the con, and we'll be giving out Halloween Comic-Fest comics all day, as well as hooking you up with the comic goodness! So, if you need your Third Eye fix, while visiting the con, make sure to stop by!
