SDCC 2016: Alterna Celebrates 10 Years With A Massive Anthology

Space-traveling children, swash-buckling sky pirates, zombies invading the battlefields of WW2, sadistic prison guards, wise-cracking Area 51 agents, an alien with an identity crisis, a little girl that slays monsters, and so much more; AnniverSERIES celebrates the first ten years of creator-owned comics from Alterna. Alterna founder and publisher Peter Simeti explains further, "AnniverSERIES combines a 30 page character guide with over 400 pages of the very best stories from Alterna.  It's a great starting point for new readers and it's also a fantastic edition for current ones as there's a few stories in this book that are seeing print for the very first time as they were previously only available digitally.  I've had the honor of working with hundreds of creators over the past ten years and I'm thrilled that we'll be able to showcase some of their very best works."

Available for preorder in DIAMOND'S AUGUST PREVIEWS ($19.99, BW, 432 pages) and set to debut in stores this October, AnniverSERIES is an epic tome that celebrates the creator-owned comics at Alterna.
