Revival House Press will be appearing at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival on May 11th and 12th, along with our friends and fellow publishers, Domino Books and Rebus Books. If you have the means to attend, come on by and look us up. It's a really great line-up this year, and there are quite a few guests I look forward to seeing. (cough..cough..Ivan Brunetti...) Also, our very own Rusty Jordan will be holding down a table for RHP during the Claremont Zine Fest, April 27th. It's a new show, but it'll definitely be a welcome addition to the Inland Empire. See ya there!
cheers,
Dave, local pamphlet-pusher
Hey gang,

cheers!

We couldn't be more elated to announce the release of Ted May's new collection, "Men's Feelings." As longtime fans of his work (including the superb Injury), it's truly an honor to be involved with this title. Basically, "Men's Feelings" will comprise a series of vignettes focusing on the amusing aspects of life in all its mundane glory. Expect it early-Spring!
cheers,
Dave, the midsize kahuna

-- A special holiday greeting from the editor of Revival House Press --
Hey folks, 2013 is nearly upon us and I just want to express some gratitude towards everyone who helped turn 2012 into such a neat, vibrant experience for RHP. If you bought a book, turned up at our table during a show, or just seemed "down" in general, I thank you. Next year's gonna be even better and I'll have more news 'bout that in a week or so. For now though, have a good rest of '12 and I'll catch ya on the flip.
holiday-cheers,
Dave, funnybook despot

October 30th-
Get caught up in the Reverie! (the cover, at least) Pausing briefly from our recent, fully-engaged past-time of storm-dodging, Revival House is pleased to announce that both Ritual #2 and Everything Unseen #3 are on track for their Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Fest debuts. Both titles will be available on Nov. 10th for those individuals lucky enough to attend the event. Not only that, but Malachi and Drew are gonna be on hand to dole out copies of their respective books. Come on by table U7, say hi and grab one of each! (check the floor-plan below for reference) Both titles will be listed in our store immediately after. It's all happening in everyone's beloved borough, Saturday, (once again) Nov. 10th.
And if you're in the Seattle area, then the Short Run comics festival should be your destination. Our friends, Jesse Reklaw and Robyn Jordan, are manning the Revival House table for your convenience. Check 'em out on Saturday, Nov. 3rd.
See ya soon!
cheers,
Dave, RHP patriarch
September 16th-
So it's looking like November is going to be a big month for us here at Revival House HQ. We're announcing not just one book ("Everything Unseen #3") but a new issue of "Ritual" as well. Here's the promo image for "The Reverie," another sensational installment of Malachi Ward's provocative series. Both books will be debuting at the Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Festival, November 10th.
And I don't want to reveal too much, but there is talk of a third book to drop at the BGCF. More on this shortly...
Cheers!

August 22nd-
So Revival House East is fully operational... And here's a taste of what's to happen this fall: Everything Unseen #3 from the indefatigable Drew Beckmeyer. The continued adventures of our beloved protagonist, Charles Grodin, will be further documented in yet another thrilling edition of Everything Unseen, with parts 6 and 7. More to come about this regarding the logistics, (when, where, etc...) but just know that it will be in your hands soon enough.
Also, for those of you who reside in the Bay Area, make sure you visit the San Francisco Zine Fest. (September 1st and 2nd, in the SF County Fair building) Malachi Ward will be holding it down, bravely manning the Revival House Press table. Swing by for some of our goods, as well as the most recent issue of his and Matt Sheean's sci-fi epic, Expansion(#4).
That's about if for now, but stay plugged in. We'll have more key announcements in the following weeks about releases and festival appearances. Cheers!
-Dave, the head honcho
July 25th, 2012
Hey gang, just a quick update here.. As of tomorrow, Revival House Press will be opening up shop on the East Coast (specifically Brooklyn, NY). We're extremely excited about the move, due in large part to the opportunity it will afford us as far as show attendance is concerned. Basically, you can expect our presence at twice the amount of events on both coasts. (and elsewhere too...) That being said, we will be unfurling our event schedule sometime over the next few days. And we guarantee some exciting news over the next couple months as we announce the titles slated for a Fall release.
Lastly, bear in mind that as our stock is tied up in the move, orders may be delayed for a few days up to a week. At any rate, we've got some good things in store for the rest of 2012. So stay alert, my friends! Cheers!
-Dave, publisher quasi-extraordinaire
Ritual #1 is now available for order, with copies shipping ASAP! Check it out at our online store.
