Aquaman's Lament - Mark Aaron James

So sorry, I meant to announce this yesterday. I'm a terrible person.

So, we'll be officially releasing The Redeemers at this year's Wizard World Chicago Comic Con, with an initial run of 100 copies of the preview issue zero. And while we'll be looking to sell a publishing house on the story to get it going as a professional book, we've also decided to hold a giveaway in the form of a fan art contest!

You have until 11:59 Central Time on August 1, the Saturday before Chicago Comic Con to submit an entry via email. Eric Rampson, the author of The Redeemers, and I will deliberate on the entries when we meet up before the convention, and announce the top three entries when the con is over.

GRAND PRIZE
A copy of The Redeemers #0 signed by Eric and I!
A signed copy of the special Redeemers Comic Con print!
A signed copy of the Redeemers sampler album!

FIRST AND SECOND RUNNER UP
A signed copy of the special Redeemers Comic Con print!
