The Devastator to Debut Pizza & Mega Man Books at SDCC

The Debut of Pizza and Mega Man Books!

Only at The Devastator  •  Booth F-03  •  Aisle 800

 

The Devastator is bringing the two best things in life to this year's Comic-Con: pizza and Mega Man! Two new books from Devastator Press make their convention debut...

Buffalo Speedway: The Deep Dish Omnibus is an extra large collection of the hit indie comic by Disney Art Director Yehudi Mercado. Follow the off-beat drivers of Houston's Turbo Pizza on June 17th, 1994: the busiest pizza day in history. In one day, there was the World Cup, the NBA Finals and OJ Simpson went on the run. It's a true slice-of-life story, as the drivers chase destiny, make history and go from pizza boys to pizza men.

The Enemies of Twenty-Something Mega Man is a parody mini-book by comedian Asterios Kokkinos (The Nerdist, Maximum Fun). This year, Mega Man turns 27. To celebrate, Dr. Wily created a set of sinister robots to annoy the shit out of him, based on the worst kinds of people we meet in our twenties. Can Mega Man defeat Unsolicited Diet Advice Man? Nonchalant Cocaine Use Man? Too Many Kickstarters Man? To stop them all, you'll need this handy field guide! (And probably Metal Blade.)

Tournament of Nerds Returns to Comic-Con

Tournament of Nerds is a hit comedy show from the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles. The show makes its triumphant return to San Diego Comic-Con this year, with an assist from their new sponsor: funny book publisher The Devastator.

Who would win in a fight, Batman or Wolverine? Superman or Gandalf? Questions like these have plagued humankind for decades. Only Tournament of Nerds can settle these disputes... by pitting two comedians against each other to battle it out in heated debate! Participants include hilarious comedians and cartoonists from Reno 911, Screen Junkies, DC Comics, I-Mockery and Boom! Studios.

Bonus! At this year's Tournament of Nerds, one lucky audience member will win a 4 book subscription to The Devastator comedy book series for geeks, featuring writers and artists from The Daily Show, The Onion, Adult Swim and Marvel. You can find Devastator books in stores across the US, UK and Canada.

Read the hilarious signatures you collect in your Autograph Book! Our game is the ultimate Comic-Con swag, and you won't even need a cripplingly large Supernatural bag to carry it!
