Monday, September 24th, 2018 - The September meeting of CHATTINGERS, the Challengers Book Club, is for ALL THE ANSWERS by Michael Kupperman, published by Gallery 13.

"Joel Kupperman became one of the most famous children in America during World War II as one of the young geniuses on the series Quiz Kids. With the uncanny ability to perform complex math problems in his head, Joel endeared himself to audiences across the country and became a national obsession. Following a childhood spent in the public eye, only to then fall victim to the same public's derision, Joel deliberately spent the remainder of his life removed from the world at large. With wit and heart, Michael Kupperman presents a fascinating account of mid-century radio and early television history, the pro-Jewish propaganda entertainment used to counteract anti-Semitism, and the early age of modern celebrity culture."

Through September 23rd, we're offering ALL THE ANSWERS at 20% off! Then, on September 24th at 7pm, come back to hang out and chat with other fans about it! Snacks and cheap beer will be served.

Friday, September 28th, 2018 - The official TRANSFORMERS Trading Card Game from Wizards of the Coast is releasing on September 28th, and we (well, Dal, obviously) are super excited for it.

It's a night of frights and fun! Dress in your scary best and get ready to tell some scary stories! Or just read out loud some internet creepypasta. Take this night to work on your Halloween costumes and collab on ideas!

On top of that we'll be doing some fortune telling, so be prepared to be granted unsettling knowledge of the future.

The creator of the Eisner-nominated series EXTREMITY, is signing the first issue of his brand new epic, MURDER FALCON! The world is under attack by monsters, and Jake's life is falling apart: no band, no girl, no future... until he meets Murder Falcon. He was sent from The Heavy to destroy all evil, but he can't do it without Jake shredding up a storm. Now, with every chord Jake plays on his guitar, the power of metal fuels Murder Falcon into all-out kung fu fury on those that seek to conquer Earth.

Daniel will be at Challengers on Saturday, October 13th, from 1:00pm to 4:00pm, signing copies of Murder Falcon #1, Extremity, Space Mullet, Ghost Fleet and anything else you want him to scribble on. Oh, and the soundtrack that day will be legendary. Vinnie Moore! Joe Stump! Marco Sfogli! And more.
