Green Brain Comics "Covered" Show!

Hey internet surfers!



Green Brain Comics (the coolest comic book store around!) is doing another gallery show, based on Robert Goodin's popular blog, "Covered." Here's the write-up on the show:

Green Brain Comics is proud to announce the opening of a new art exhibit entitled "COVERED" on Wednesday, January 13th. The exhibit will be on display in Green Brain Comics's recently named gallery, HEADSPACE.

Inspired by a similar theme at the Covered blog (www.covered.blogspot.com) HEADSPACE curator Dan Merritt has assembled several pieces by artists that have brought their own touch to famous and infamous comic book covers from several different decades. "The theme for this exhibit has really sparked a creative flame." says Merritt "Each of these pieces has been lovingly recreated in tribute to the original art and the original artists that created them."

Featured in the exhibit will be works from Michigan based comic creators Paul Sizer, Matt Feazell, Sean Bieri and Chris Houghton. Joining them will be other well known local artists Eric Millikin, Bryan Durren and Heather Hansma. As well as many others, including Lizz James, Jesse Hughes, Jennifer Rose Evans, and a piece by Masheka Wood from New York.

The opening reception for the "Covered" exhibit will be Wednesday, January 13th, 2010 from 7pm to 10pm. The art will be on view until Saturday, March 6th.


HEADSPACE is inside Green Brain Comics which is located at 13210 Michigan Avenue in East Downtown Dearborn. More information is available at

I contributed my Milton the Monster cover I did a couple of months ago as well as a more recent adaptation of Airboy #27. Did anyone else read Eclipse's Airboy series from the 80's?



So if you happen to be in Detroit next Wednesday, stop by Green Brain Comics!
