Vortex Books and Comics

Posted on June 6, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

Vortex Books and Comics

All right, folks, listen up. I’m late to the party but horror authors Brian Keene and Mary SanGiovanni opened up a comic and book store in Columbia, PA called Vortex Books and Comics.

If you’re in the area, head down and support a couple of writers displaying their passion for the written word through sharing books and comics with others.

Brian has been a long-standing figure in the field and has won numerous awards. Mary is also a prolific author with several books under her belt. I know that this store effort is going to be one fueled with passion and opportunity to reach readers in a way that perhaps they might not have been reached before. Better, it’s an independent author-friendly store with little-known quality titles awaiting discovery.

I’m really excited to see where this bookstore endeavor goes, and Brian’s no dummy. I trust his business sense to make the store a success. And besides, I’m pretty sure Mary will keep him in check should he smoke too many cigars and starts talking about how he just met The Defenders.

Address:

477 Locust St
Columbia, PA 17512

Hours:

Monday — Closed
Tuesday — Closed
Wednesday — 10am to 7pm
Thursday — 10am to 7pm
Friday — 10am to 7pm
Saturday — 10am to 7pm
Sunday — 10am to 5pm

While true we have our online superhero and monster merch shop on Zazzle, we’ve been also been working on unique items behind the scenes.

I’ve already ordered one of these many items.

Soon, but Axiom-man merch is coming.

In the meantime, check out the Books and Comics of the Cobalt Crusader and follow his journey from rookie superhero to someone whose life in the cape has changed him. For better or worse? That’s up to you, dear reader.

Cheers.

Canister X Mailbag – Poison Ivy Gulch Saddles Up Cartoon Strip Book Unboxing – Mar192024

Posted on March 22, 2024 5:04 am by A.P. Fuchs

Canister X Mailbag – Poison Ivy Gulch Saddles Up Cartoon Strip Book Unboxing – Mar192024

Yet another unearthed package here at Axiom-man Central, this time from a Kickstarter I backed a good while ago called POISON IVY GULCH SADDLES UP by Max West. It’s a book of cartoon strips collecting Max’s webcomic of the same name.

Very cool to have and finally unbox. I’ve always been a fan of Max’s comics so to know he was doing a western with his kind of humor was a cool thing. I definitely enjoyed the webcomic so I’m sure I’ll enjoy this collection as well.

Check out POISON IVY GULCH on the web right here.

Don’t forget to subscribe to stay up to date on all the latest videos. Seriously, there is tons of comics and books and Pop Culture all over the channel. Just a fan making stuff for fans.

Hope you join me.

Canister X Mailbag – Blackthorne No. 5 Unboxing – 03022024

Worst. Fan. Ever. This comic got buried in my studio and was recently unearthed. I feel super bad because Colin Work is a great friend and it was one of his comics. Doh!

Anyway, here it is, the unboxing of more BLACKTHORNE comics.

Why I Post What I Do – Author Blogs

Posted on February 27, 2024 5:05 am by A.P. Fuchs

Many author blogs or websites are just about that: writing and books.

Which is 100% fine. I used to do it. Many others I know still do it. But do you see that site banner up there? It says three things: Writer, Artist, Creator. And it’s the latter part that explains why I don’t just post about books and comics (as awesome as those are).

I’ve talked about it before and I’ll mention it again, this site is about the long game in my creator/creative journey. It’s a showcase of the various crafts I practice. It’s also an information and entertainment source for you.

Why the hotwheels? Why the Funko Pops!? Why the action figures and playing cards? Because the film medium is something I also enjoy. My skillset might not be top-notch (most of what I do behind the scenes is based off what I learned in high school multimedia class 25 years ago . . . and it still works).

These creations and showcases are meant to compliment the books and comics and show that those things are made by a fan for the fans.

Some stumbles across one of my posts via a search engine and soon they are whisked into a realm of heroes and monsters and fandom entertainment. Author blogs can be more than just books and writing, if you want.

It’s that simple.

Like I always say, there’s a method to the madness.

A.P. Fuchs Live No. 1 Bookshelf Tour

Posted on February 26, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

A.P. Fuchs Live No. 1 Bookshelf Tour

So on Friday night, I decided to experiment with YouTube’s live stream feature. I’ve never used it before so hopped on the app and poked at some of the buttons to see what did what and what the interface looks like. Things seemed simple enough and we were able to get things going. To make the video interesting outside of me yapping at the camera and pushing buttons, I gave a brief tour of my home library along with some of the collectibles cluttering the shelf.

The plan is to revamp the studio for 2024 and all those collectibles like Funko Pops! etc. that require a shelf for display will be moved into the studio and current swathe of action figures covering the studio walls will be replaced with some new ones along with the shelving.

I also plan to do some other cool things with the studio when redecorating and I’ll share them with you when I do a 2024 Studio Tour video. Here’s the 2023 Studio Tour.

Anyway, this was the live stream and bookshelf tour. I plan to do more but one thing at a time.

Be sure to subscribe for pop culture and book and comic goodness!

Read Fredrikus: The Webcomic From the Beginning

Posted on January 30, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

Been feeling lost?

Why not come home to an old favorite: FREDRIKUS, a webcomic about a down-and-out anthropomorphic dog in a dystopian sci-fi world?

It’s about life, screwing up, getting some wisdom, then hitting that hard road again to get it done.

Serialized comics in episode form. Plus, the cartoon (see below) that birthed it all.

Read FREDRIKUS the webcomic by clicking on the graphic below.

Please visit the Art page on this website for more drawing and cartooning.

Winnipeg Comiccon 2024 Appearance

Posted on January 24, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

Winnipeg Comiccon 2024 Appearance

If you’re a reader of my newsletter you’ll know that I’m booked to table in Artist Alley at the Winnipeg Comiccon on October 25 to 27, 2024 at the RBC Convention Centre downtown. It’s a huge show and I’m excited to take a part in it after taking some breathing room from doing shows.

I also have a couple other conventions I’d like to lock down for this year but am still investigating. Some local book signings would be nice, too, but one thing at a time.

In the mean time, yeah, Winnipeg Comiccon 2024 appearance this fall.

See you there!
