TERMINAL
PRESS GOES TO DALLAS (FIGURATIVELY)
Terminal
Press in association with Arrow Productions will debut, “Debbie Does Dallas,”
at the 2008 Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada this January. The
Limited Edition Comic release will coincide with the 30th Anniversary of the
classic adult movie.
In the book, Debbie finds herself stranded and under the threat of nuclear decimation
in the days leading up to the apocalypse. As one of very few survivors left,
she will battle her way through hordes of the living dead, aided only by an
abandoned military exoskeleton and the will to make it out of Dallas, Texas
alive.
“Debbie Does Dallas” is illustrated by Russ Manning nominee Rolo
Ledesma, written by Brian Ferrara, with Colors by Narek Gevorgian and Color
Separation by Joe Frazzetta and Keith McCleary.
This will be the first of Terminal Press’s collaborations with Arrow Productions.
Future titles will feature reinterpretations of classics like “Deep Throat,”
“Candy Stripers”,“Tell Them Johnny Wadd Was Here ” and
several others.

RETURNS TO THE COMIC BOOK NOVICE RADIO SHOW
UPDATE:
CLICK
HERE FOR THE MP3
Check
out the Comic Book Novice radio show this Thursday, February 1st at 9pm est
for an interview and probable ranting from Brian and Ken Knudtsen.
We'll
be plugging some of our new shit, but we'll also be speaking about the state
of Independent comic books and why it is necessary to be near-fatally intoxicated
at comic conventions.
Tune
into AM 1240 if you're in NY state or log onto http://www.am1240wgbb.com
to hear the live web stream.
SO,
WHAT'S GOIN ON WITH YOU?
Glad
you asked! First, there is a new Silent Assassin Tee available in the shop.
It's a Limited Edition and when we say Limited, we mean 20. C' mon, that's pretty
Limited. It's a new design by Silent Assassin artist Narek Gevorgian in a series
leading up to the release of "Silent Assassin: Special Edition" this
summer. That's another thing.
"Silent Assassin: Special Edition" will be available as a Convention and Web Exclusive this summer. It will include a large color preview of the upcoming Graphic Novel in addition to several new short stories featuring the whole TP crew and our Guest Artist pals. More info on this book and the release of "Silent Assassin: Disorder of a System" coming soon.
More immediately, the Spraycan Monsters comic goes to print this month and will debut at the upcoming NY Comic Con February 23-25. TP had a lot of creative freedom on this one and crafted a book they are proud to present to both Comic and Graffiti fans. This is going to be another Limited Printing, so get yours while you can. Look for a preview on the site soon.
We are working on lots of new material and projects so keep checking in. We're just getting started...
INDIE
PUBLISHER THINKS IT'S ONE OF THE BIG BOYS!
Terminal
Press is gonna have three awesome exclusives and two amazing talents signing
at our table, E12, during the San Diego Comic Con 2006
Graffiti Legend Seen will be signing at our table on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. He will be promoting the Convention Exclusive Pilotman Spraycan Monsters Flame Repaint, Limited to only 50 pieces. He will also be signing the "Phony-Baloney: Phony Island Phiasco" Convention Exclusive Photo Cover Comic.
If that wasn't enough, Special Guest Daniel Way (Wolverine: Origins, Ghost Rider, Supreme Power: Nighthawk) will be signing his SDCC Exclusive Foil Enhanced Comic, "Gun Theory: Bye-Bye, Harvey" and joining us at the booth for the entire convention.
Make sure to swing by table E12 to pick up all these excellent exclusives and meet some of Independent Comics finest and most fun creators. Then join us after the Con for drunken raging comic nerd debating! Aquaman can kick Wolverine's ass and I'll tell ya why!
SAN'D'F'ING'IEGO
Oh
man, this is gonna be good. Even though we got screwed (along with 244 others)
by the con because they over-booked, we will not be stopped! We were supposed
to have a booth this year, some room to stretch out and show off all the ass
kickin' merch we have available, but the con organizers over booked and kicked
our asses back down to a small press table. Don't they know we aren't small
press anymore?! We're huge now! So huge, we'll have super-scribe Daniel Way
(Wolverine, Ghost Rider) joining us at our table. Plus, we got the Phony-Baloney
Con Exclusive Variant available. I hear it's going on Ebay for like a ton of
money already, so get it before they're all gone! Table E12! NUFF SAID!
WIZARDS
AND WENCHES
It's
Con season again! This June 2-4 the TP crew will be attending Wizard
World Philly at Table 1147. Our buddies Ken Knudtsen and Jerry Ma will be
at tables 1182 & 1183. If you manage to visit all three tables, you may
be crawling from the bathroom to the exit by the end of the day. I know we will
be. Have you ever seen one of those Pantera
home videos? If all goes well, that's what our video should look like this
year. If we remember to turn the camera on. Also, make sure to check the newly
added slideshow to the left of this news post during the weekend, it will be
updated live for the duration of our trip. As far as TP merch, since it is a
Con, you will once again have the opportunity to pick up our Con-Exclusive Alternate
Cover Phony-Baloney Comic along with the Phony-Baloney toys and the Con Exclusive
Toxic Teddies Comic and get em' all signed. See ya in Philly!
YOUR
PARENTS ARE DEFINITELY GETTING THEIR MONEYS WORTH.
This
Friday, April 21st from 6-8PM Terminal Press and Friends will be holding a forum
for the NYU Bags N' Boards club in Tisch Hall UC-52. Brian, Jess, Rolo, Narek,
Ken and Jerry will be answering questions, bullshitting about comics, sporadically
weeping and crushing a few dreams. If you want to know how we make comics, how
we stay sane making comics or who we think would win in a battle between Aquaman
and The Dazzler, this would be your chance to find these things out. Food will
be provided by Bags N' Boards and giveaways will be provided by us because we're
awesome. Find out more info here.
Also, we plan on getting wasted afterwards, so bring the kids!
I'M
NOT SURE IF YOU WERE AWARE OF THIS...
Phony-Baloney
is out! It is out and you can buy it! Right here!
Or even here!
Check it out in our comics section
or at the Planet6 website
or at Phony-Baloney.com!
Check out the pictures from the launch at the NY Comic Con here
or here!
There is so much clicking to do!

OFF THE PRESS
We
just received a few advance copies of Phony-Baloney and they have passed our
quality control tests. The colors and layout are just the way we wanted and
it held up to our rigorous bathroom reading gauntlet of destruction. This one
gets the TP seal of approval! Remember, if you want to get your hands on a copy
and have a chance to get the limited edition cover signed by SEEN,
get your ticket for the NY
Comic Con before it's too late!

WE
SIGNED SOME BOOKS AND GOT BACK TO WORK!
With
our signing at Midtown comics wrapped up (pics
here), the never ending cycle of comics, bitchez and booze continues! Phony-Baloney
has been sent to the printers and will be ready to debut at the NY Comic Con,
February 24-26 at the Javitz Center. Buy tickets and get more details here.
We have some cool stuff lined up for our appearance at the Con including Seen
signing at our booth and Dj
Lady Tribe dropping the jaws of fanboys as she reels you in to buy our comics.
By the way, the booth number is 430. File that one in the memory banks!
A
GOOD EXCUSE TO BUY STUFF & GET RETARDED!
The
orders for Crowpsey / Rufus & Cleveland are all in and the books have shipped
out for their comic shop debut on Wednesday November 30th. We'll be celebrating
with an in-store signing at the world famous Midtown
Comics in New York that Friday, December 2nd from 5 - 7 PM. Ken Knudtsen
(C/R&C, My Monkeys Name Is Jennifer) will be there along with Narek Gevorgian
(Silent Assassin, C/R&C), Brian Ferrara (C/R&C, Silent Assassin) and
our pal Jerry Ma (Burn, Space Rangers). Come grab your FREE Silent Assassin
print and then tag along after the signing to the closest bar and watch us get
stupid drunk! More details to follow, so stay tuned!
SCREAM
UNTIL THEY HEAR YOU!
Crowpsey
/ Rufus & Cleveland is in the September issue of Previews. The order code
is SEP053099. Please let your local comic shop know that you want them to stock
our book on their shelves. We have been speaking with comic shops from coast
to coast and most have been very supportive, but there are still a few that
just can't be convinced to stock a comic book unless the main character is running
around in tights and a cape. The only way they are going to carry our book is
if they know the fans want it. Let them know you want it! Here
is a list of every comic shop in America. Get on the phone and let them
know you want more TP books on the shelf, then let
us know about it and we will forever be grateful. You may even be immortalized
in a future TP publication!
TP'S
GONNA MAKE YOU SQUEAL LIKE A PIG!
World
Famous Graffiti Artist "SEEN"
has handed over the comic book creating reigns for his new toy line, Phony-Baloney,
to Terminal Press. We will be transforming these PVC boys in pink and blue into
full fledged comic characters in their first full length adventure. The official
press release is coming soon, but in the meantime you can click the graphic
below to take a peak.
SELLING
COMICS, MAKING DEALS AND KICKING ASS!
Those
Crowpsey / Rufus & Cleveland books sure are shiny. You all seem to think
so too because you obviously crave shiny things and took out your desire for
glistening sheen by picking up lots of copies of this book at the San Diego
Con. Most of you didn't even know we had an edition of the Toxic Teddies comic
out (it's
a long story), yet you managed to track it down and buy all of em'! This
Con was definitely a milestone for us. It was the first time we wished we had
actually brought more stock. Silent Assassin and TP0 didn't do too shabby either.
It was beautiful. The present is going well, but we are always looking towards
the future. We have some awesome stuff in the works and I'm not even talking
about the freakin amazing looking Silent Assassin Book 2 (out sometime this
fall). Keep checking back for the news. By the way, our fans f'ing rock.
CROWPSEY
/ RUFUS & CLEVELAND HAS ARRIVED!
We
just received an advance box of Crowpsey / Rufus & Cleveland to debut at
Wizard World East. There are only 100 copies available until the rest of the
shipment arrives later this month. Even cooler is the fact that we will be sitting
right next to Ken Knudtsen at WWE, so you will have the opportunity to meet
the whole crew responsible for this book and get your copies signed and possibly
drooled upon! More news to follow soon!
CAN
YOU HEAR IT KAWWLING YOU?
Our
first release for 2005 is going to hit like an abusive parent on a drinking
binge! Crowpsey will go to the printers this March along with his flip-book
pals, Rufus & Cleveland. You've already had a look at R&C on our Comics
page, but we have been keeping the lid on the updated look of one of our most
classic titles. Consider the lid twisted off and the contents gently dripped
out. I present to you, page 1 of "Crowpsey: I Scream!" from the upcoming
Prestige Format Comic Book. Much more to come soon!
NEW
DESKTOPS TO TIDE YOU OVER UNTIL JANUARY

and every fan who has showed us support. Click on an image for the full-sized

DO
YOU WANT TO READ SILENT ASSASSIN BOOK 2?
Well,
then you need to order Book 1 first! If you have a favorite local shop, let
them know there are some great titles out there that don't feature grown men
running around in underwear and tights. There are quality titles with high production
values in prestige format that don't come from Marvel or DC. I know of one such
title and its name is Silent Assassin. Here is how to order:
Previews Order Form V14#11
Page 41
Order Number: NOV04 2892
Previews Catalog NOV. 04
Page 317
If you want to get this title into your local shop and find out what critics
are calling "incredibly
brave" and "visually
stunning", send them an email with this link or info and tell em' there's
a new book worth checking out! The deadline for ordering is November 13th, so
the time for action is now!
SILENT
ASSASSIN AT YOUR LOCAL SHOP... SOON
Silent
Assassin: Understanding Trauma has been picked up by Diamond Distribution and
will be in the November issue of Previews. We're working hard to get Comic Shops
to stock our books and could use all the help and support we can get. More info
on how to get SA in your local shop is coming soon. We are also slated for the
October/November issue of Comics Buyer's Guide with a Review of Silent Assassin.
You can check out some of our recent reviews from Silver Bullet Comic Books
and Mediasharx in the Press box below. The reviews have been great, but I think
they think we're crazy. Silent Assassin: Mighty Anodyne (Book 2) is just going
to confirm these suspicions.
TERMINAL
PRESS INFECTS CHICAGO
Despite
a plane leaking fluid, luggage sent on a different flight and Hurricane Charley,
we arrived and conquered Chicago! Work all day, Happy Hour till 7:00, delicious
room service, Hyatt Bar, crash out and repeat. The Wizard Spring Fling Party
was a lot of fun and it is always a treat to get drunk on Wizards tab while
sitting across from Lou Ferrigno. We got a chance to visit with lots of old
friends and make a bunch of new ones and of course, sell lots of cool TP merchandise.
Between Silent Assassin and the Toxic Teddies, we got a lot of attention from
the fan-boys and had many children dragged away from our table by their parents.
When will they learn, the kids are just gonna want it more if you tell them
they can't have it? Thanks to all our friends, fans and supporters! We love
you! Platonically.
TRYING
TO STAY OUT OF TROUBLE IN CHICAGO
From
August 13th - 15th we will be at the Wizard World Chicago Convention at Artist
Alley table 9075 A&B. Not only will you have another chance to pick up an
autographed copy of Silent Assassin along with all the other SA merchandise
available from TP, we will be representing some of our friends and collaborators!
We will have a case of Toxic Teddies for sale directly from the Superfun Company
to accompany all the new preview art from the upcoming Terminal Press comic.
A preview copy of the new Puppet Terrors comic will be on display and The Epic
Proportions comic from Ken Knudtsen, Jimmy Ma, Jerry Ma and Rich Ma will be
available for your casual perusing needs. As usual, visit this site for photos
and a video after the con!
31
HORRIBLE FLAVORS
Ken
Knudtsen recently dropped off some of the new artwork from Crowpsey's first
full-length adventure and I was compelled to at least give you all a tiny peek.
Yes, Crowpsey spends his time as an Ice Cream Man for the duration of this book
and it is completely ridiculous. There'll be anger, violence and dairy products
in your face soon. Check out this single inked panel, but don't forget, the
finished book will be in full-color too!
MAKING
THE ROUNDS: CONVENTIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY
This
year’s Comic Con International, from July 21 – 25, will feature
the debut of Brian Ferrara, Narek Gevorgian & Don Redick’s Silent
Assassin: Understanding Trauma. Visit the Terminal Press Comic Con Table (E
- 8) for a chance to meet the creators and have them sign your very
own copy of the book or an original artist print. Pick up a dope-ass Silent
Assassin t-shirt, custom hat or one of Terminal Press’ stickers. If the
left coast is too far for you to hitchhike to, catch us at Wizard World Chicago
from August 13-15 and stay tuned for the rest of our tour dates. God Bless America!
TERMINAL
PRESS & THE SUPERFUN COMPANY: A DELETERIOUS DUO!
The
creators of the Toxic Teddies team up with the Terminal Press team for a bright
and shining tale of mutilation and mayhem in Bearsville. Sadomasochism, intravenous
drug use and bathtub suicides only begin to describe the fun possible with these
fuzzy, fucked up characters. Narek Gevorgian will color Rolo Ledesma’s
pencils and inks on this 22 page foray into a Unicorn hunt gone very, very bad.
JOINING
FORCES: RUFUS & CLEVELAND AND CROWPSEY
As
if an alcoholic lemur and a baby-eating rhinoceros were not entertaining enough,
Brian Ferrara and Ken Knudtsen have decided to add that loveable bundle of violence
with a crow stuck in his eye-socket to this full-color, perfect bound graphic
novel. This reversible book (Rufus & Cleveland on one side, Crowpsey on
the flip side) will feature original art and stories by these two creators in
an attempt to get some important, animal friendly stories out to you, the public.
PETA will never know what hit them.
SILENT
ASSASSIN: UNDERSTANDING TRAUMA BEGINS ITS JOURNEY!
The
book has left the cave! Brian, Narek and Don kissed their baby good-bye early
this week. We are getting psyched for the San Diego Comic Con debut! Pre-orders
are available now! We will keep you posted.
TERMINAL
PRESS SITE RE-LAUNCH!
We
have re-designed our site and made sure to include a ton of new content. Our
Secure Shop is now open and it's just in time for a blizzard of new products.
We'll be adding a lot more and releasing some exciting new info in the coming
weeks, so keep checking back!
