Catch Chris Wisnia signing copies of his new book, Doris Danger: Giant Monsters Amok, at Bizarro World! About the book: Written and drawn as dead-on homages to the styles of Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, and Dick Ayers, these 20 stories recount Doris's encounters with such monsters as "Ner-Nee-Nah," "Spwum," "Ho-Chee-Cha," "X, Son of XI," and many more.
