Dearborn’s  Green Brain Comics welcomes Eagle Award nominated writer Gary Reed for a book signing in honor of the new Deadworld Omnibus. The signing will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 16th from 4-7 p.m. ​

Don’t miss this chance to get a signed copy of the book that reboots the series that’s been called the “grand-daddy” of all zombie comics. The previous collection Deadworld Classics Vol 1 will also be available, which was named by Fangoria.com as one of the top 10 Horror Comics of 2010.​ It was zombies before zombies were cool.

​What could make this event cooler? Well check these next two offers out.

Dress as a zombie and the best costume will win a page of original Deadworld art from Wayne Reid plus an autographed copy of Deadworld Chronicles where the story appeared. Or bring in your best zombie drawing and the winner gets a free Deadworld Portfolio which has 10 full color prints, all by classic Deadworld artist Vince Locke. Now you’ve got plenty of extra reasons to visit ​Green Brain Comics.​

​You can RSVP to the event on the Facebook event page.

Green Brain Comics is located at 13210 Michigan Ave. in East Downtown Dearborn. For more information check the website at www.greenbrain.biz or call 313-582-9444

Travel along Chase Road in Dearborn will be slowed a bit because of new road construction between Ford Road and Warren that will last through July.

The City of Dearborn is urging motorists to find an alternate route. Traffic will be shifted to the east half of Chase Road and reduced to one lane in each direction.

The road project will result in a new water main, new curbs and the resurfacing of Chase Road.
