Posts pertaining to promotional items from A.P. Fuchs.
The Maybe I’ll Be Back podcast hosted by Corey Hodgdon had me on recently and the interview went live yesterday. We go over how I tackle writing, and talk about the currently-running Axiom-man/Auroraman: Frozen Storm Kickstarter campaign I’m doing with Jeff Burton.
It was a blast to do the show and I hope to do it again sometime in the future.
A public thank you to Corey for having me.
You can give the podcast a listen here.
Update on the Axiom-man/Auroraman: Frozen Storm Kickstarter:
Jeff Burton and I are amazed at how much support this project has received. Not only are we closing in on a third funded, but the indie superhero community is behind us in helping get not just the Frozen Storm novel out, but also Auroraman No. 1 (which features a mini-comic at the end that leads into Frozen Storm). We want to thank each and every one of you who has contributed in bringing these projects to life in some way, whether that’s through pledging or social media shares or spreading the word through some other means.
Jeff and I both believe it’s important to bring more Canadian superhero adventures to readers, and doing this Kickstarter is a way in which to accomplish that. As of this writing, there are 26 days left to go. Please take a moment and check out the Kickstarter page for the awesome rewards and tiers this campaign has to offer. Please also consider supporting these projects. Making comics and books is an expensive endeavor and we want to make sure all those we have on board creating the comic and book get properly compensated for their time and effort.
Thank you again to everyone who’s gotten behind us on this. You’re in for a super treat once the rewards start shipping because there’s not only the exciting comic and book, but original art, toys, collectibles, and more.
See you on the Prairies.
Yesterday, the podcast interview with me on Just Joshing went live. We go over career highlights, The Canister X Transmission, the currently-running Axiom-man/Auroraman: Frozen Storm Kickstarter campaign, and more.
Special thanks to Joshua Pantalleresco for having me on his show. You can listen to it here.
The Axiom-man/Auroraman: Frozen Storm Kickstarter has fired off the launch pad and is already off to a crazy phenomenal start. Thank you to everyone who’s pledged support to these two prairie heroes. You’re going to be in for one heck of a ride.
This Kickstarter supports not only Frozen Storm, but also The Adventures of Auroraman No. 1!
I co-wrote the mini comic at the back of Auroraman No. 1 that will lead into Frozen Storm, a superhero novel with action and suspense start to finish. Fans of The Axiom-man Saga won’t want to miss out on this adventure.
It’s been a pleasure working with Jeff Burton on this project and I can’t wait to share with you the story we concocted for Frozen Storm.
Two superheroes. One icy threat.
To back the Kickstarter, please go here.
Thank you so much from Jeff and I in advance for your support.
There are days in this business where things get tough and you wonder why even bother with all this stuff? It doesn’t matter how successful you are. Every writer hits that wall of “what’s the point?” and then has to deal with it. Then stuff like this comes into your inbox and you’re reminded your work isn’t just about you and there are people out there who genuinely care about what you do.
Below is a piece of fan art from Axiom-man superfan Movies, Comics, and MTG. Below that is a video he made about Axiom-man and the upcoming Axiom-man/Auroraman: Frozen Storm Kickstarter.
A special thank you to Movies, Comics, and MTG for these. They made my day at a time when I needed a boost.
I will be tabling at the first-ever FanQuest here in Winnipeg, “created by fans, for fans,” as per their tagline.
The show runs May 26-28 at the University of Winnipeg in Riddell Hall.
Should be a lot of fun.
I’m going to be tabling small at this convention so that’s going to be an interesting experience, too. My main focus will be superhero and monster stuff as opposed to bringing everything. Might bring some art prints for sale as well.
Come down. Say hello. We’ll chat.
I will be signing not one, but two, books at Coles Bookstore in Kildonan Place Mall here in Winnipeg on March 25 from 1 to 3pm. It’s a Saturday. Mark it on your calendars.
Books on hand will be Mech Apocalypse and Zombie Fight Night: Battles of the Dead, both of which are high-octane, action-packed novels that go hard non-stop from start to finish. As well, if you want any other book of mine signed, just bring it down to the store and I’ll be happy to sign it for you.
Coles has always been good to me and I’m proud to do another signing there. A public thank you to Coles and their staff for their continuous kindness and support of this local author.
See you in March.
Tonight I locked down two more shows for this year.
They are as follows:
Manitoba Comic Con – April 1 and 2 at the RBC Convention Centre, Winnipeg. Hours run from 10am until 6pm on Saturday, and 11am until 5pm on Sunday.
Central Canada Comic Con – October 27 to 29 at the RBC Convention Centre, Winnipeg. Hours are 2pm to 9pm Friday, 10am to 7pm Saturday, and 11am to 6pm Sunday.
I will be in Artist Alley for both shows so stop by for superhero and monster thrills and chills, heroic adventures and excitement!
I will be tabling at C4’s St. Valentine’s Horror Con on February 11 and 12 at the RBC Convention Centre here in Winnipeg.
Last year was their first year doing the show and it was an absolute blast. I look forward to seeing what’s in store this year and watching it grow.
Monsters will abound as will my zombie books and other horror titles.
See you there.
It is with great pleasure that A.P. Fuchs and Jeff Burton announce the upcoming Kickstarter campaign for the team-up novel, Axiom-man and Auroraman: Frozen Storm.
Not only will this Kickstarter fund the novel, but also fund Auroraman No. 1. Earlier in 2016, Jeff kickstarted Issue 0 to great success so we’re excited to work on this dual effort together and bring you a fantastic issue of Auroraman complete with a short comic at the end that leads into Frozen Storm.
Jeff and I have already discussed the general outline for the story and can’t wait to show you what’s in store as time gets closer to launching the Kickstarter into full gear.
I can, however, tell you one thing about Frozen Storm and it’s this: these icy villains put the abominable snowman to shame.
Keep watching this blog for more announcements, same with my Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, the newsletter, and more. And, of course, stay tuned to the official Auroraman Facebook page.
2017 is going to be one cold year and it’s going to take two superpowered heroes to keep the ice at bay.
Here’s Jeff’s promo video for the announcement:
