Oni Press is sending its die-hard comics commando, Sr. Sales Manager Michael Torma, on the road for “Torma on Tour 2023”!
From Maryland to Ohio, drop on by to visit some of America’s greatest comic retailers throughout the month of October as Torma takes comicdom by storm with tons of free giveaways, limited-edition swag, and sneak peeks ahead a raft of Oni Press’ most anticipated new releases, including LET ME OUT by Emmett Nahil and George Williams (on sale October 4th); THE MAN FROM MAYBE #1 by Jordan Thomas & Shaky Kane (on sale October 18th); FACELESS AND THE FAMILY #1 by Matt Lesniewski (on sale November 1st); RICK AND MORTY: THE MANGA VOL. 1 – GET IN THE ROBOT, MORTY! by Allisa Sallah & JeyOdin (on sale November 1st); INVASIVE #1 by Cullen Bunn & Jesús Hervás (on sale December 6); and much, much more!
Plus, as an extra-added bonus, Torma – the former General Manager of Third Eye Comics in Annapolis, MD – will be putting his 15 years of experience in comics retail to good use as an extra set of helping hands at each and every stop along the “Torma on Tour 2023” route!
“Now, more than ever, is the time to get into comic shops to celebrate the stories that resonate with fans and readers, and it’s an honor to have a chance to do that work alongside some of the greatest retailers in America today,” said Torma. “As someone who cut his teeth over the course of 15 years in the Direct Market, I’m excited to share more about our exciting stories and creators and help out with whatever needs doing – I’ll alphabetize long boxes, make coffee runs, and, heck, I’ll even wear a chicken suit if it helps! You will have to independently source your own chicken suits on a store-by-store basis, however.”
