If you're in southern California and you don't have any plans for New Year's Eve, why not join us at Galaxy of Comics in Vany Nuys for the SoulGeek New Year's Costume Bash? I'll be there sellin' the few copies of my book I have left, and Dino Andrade will be there too. Don't know who Dino is? Well besides founding SoulGeek back in 2007, he's also a talented voice actor. He's the voice of Skull the Troll in PvP: The Series, and gamers might recognize him as the voices of Death in Brutal Legend, and the Scarecrow in Batman: Arkham Asylum. Also, he voices Pop in the Rice Crispies commercials, which is pretty awesomesauce.

It's a costume party, so the more costumey you are the better. I'm prepared to give away a free copy of Jump Leads Vol.1 to the first person who approaches me dressed up as someone - anyone - from an issue of Jump Leads.

Also: I spoke to Dino on the phone and while I can't promise anything just yet I might be bringing my Xbox and Rock Band with me. That includes The Beatles: Rock Band. Come sing Beatles hits with a genuine British person! Update! We'll definitely be rocking out!
