NEWS UPDATE...and looking back at the last two months!

The last two months have been a blur with many milestones for the CORPUS CHRISTI comic book!  

First, 2023 Comics released issue #3 of CORPUS CHRISTI with several variant covers, along with the first collector’s edition of issue #1 with the first soundtrack CD!  The collector’s edition was a featured release for National Record Store Day at Disc Go Round records in Corpus Christi, Texas.  This was followed quickly with 2023 Comics participating in Free Comic Book Day at Collector’s Planet and Comics Plus in Corpus Christi, Texas on May 5th, 2012.  Many fans came out to pick up the latest issues and met artist/writer Trent Westbrook and colorist Joseph Mitchell.

Two weeks later, 2023 Comics attended the Dallas Comicon with Trent Westbrook as a featured artist with upcoming writer/collaborator Clegg Smith.  The CORPUS CHRISTI book did amazingly well in Dallas with over 90 books sold!  

On June 2^nd, a major milestone for the title was met, with over 1,000 copies of the CORPUS CHRISTI comic sold!  Over half sold were the first issue through 3 printings and the collector’s edition!

Trent Westbrook and Joseph Mitchell then headed for San Antonio, Texas for the Texas Comicon a month later, where 2023 Comics had an exclusive cover set for the first 3 issues of CORPUS CHRISTI, with over 100 books sold that weekend!

Three different articles appeared in various publications between May and June of 2012 in regards to the comic book!  An article in the Caller Times for Free Comic Book Day and a double page feature article in STEAM Entertainment Magazine were printed for the month of May, and an official recognition of the comic book and artist/writer Trent Westbrook by Texas A&M University – Kingsville took place in June.  Trent Westbrook is an alumni of the university and was featured in an article by the Javelina Alumni Association.

So what is next for 2023 Comics?

Issue #4 is currently being written and drawn by Trent Westbrook with a September 2012 release date.

Issue #1 is going into a 4^th printing for a Fall/October release!  The book keeps selling and we thank you to all who have supported it!
