My Geeky Week: Women of Aspen Comics

I've been catching up on some great Aspen reads lately and have some press info on some upcoming books. Learn more about these books and Aspen related news Here

Lady Mechanika

I've heard a lot of buzz about this series and now issues 0-2 are available on the nook. Gorgeously illustrated, this steampunk story has a wonderful female lade and some great Horror/Mystery elements. Creator Joe Benitez and Aspen have amicably parted ways but back issues and digital versions are still available. Learn more about Joe HERE 

The New Aspen title Charismagic has a special cover for Valentine's Day. This is an interesting series, worth checking out. I'm still getting a handle on all the characters but the magical components of the story are really interesting.

Shrugged


There are a lot of interesting characters in this series. Part of Aspen's 10 for 10 ( a sort of reboot for books in celebration of Aspens 10th anniversary.)
Releasing March 13th Issue one has a great price point of $1.00.

Executive Assistant

The series Assassins brings a lot of the Assistants together and not in a very friendly manner! Rose is at the center of this tale as she comes into conflict with some equally talented foes. This series has some really great characters. I also enjoyed the look of the characters in this book. In the past I've been a bit turned off by some of the characters outfits and positioning of their bodies. It didn't do justice to the fine writing and great concept of the series.

So here are some of the female characters I'm enjoying at Aspen. Check them out!

Wicked Valentine’s Day Readathon Mini-Challenge Page

Hello Everyone this is my page for all the mini-challenges and contests for the Wicked Valentine’s Day Readathon. Happy Reading!

Mini Challenge One

Host:

My Shelf Confessions

The Love ship

This challenge asks us to pick an established couple and send them on a cruise! Sharing where they would go, the stops, fun things they would do together etc.

I choose Harry & Ginny Potter! After settling in their careers this couple really deserves a little fun! I would have them take an Egyptian cruise in the Spring. Yes Ginny has been there with her family, but that would make it even easier for them since she could show Harry the fun sites. The would take a muggle cruise of course to make it more relaxing,  a ship called the Nile Prince.

Of course Ron and his family would weedle their way onto the trip as well but   Harry , who has spent so much of his life without a family wouldn't mind at all.
They would be a big boisterous group with Hermoine taking charge of their shore leaves so they wouldn't get lost :)

Of course Ron would some how convince Harry to spell a carpet and the foursome would spend a cloudy night amongst the stars and a full moon. Tomb visits and trinkets, Fine dining and dancing and much needed rest for a heroic boy!
