Surprise appearance! Popular character actor DAN FOGLER (“Man Up,” “Take Me Home Tonight,” “Fanboys,” “Balls of Fury”) will be appearing in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Feb. 15, 6-8 p.m. at Meltdown Comics in Hollywood to sign copies of his first book, the MOON LAKE anthology hardcover, published by Archaia!

He will be joined by writer R.H. Stavis (Something Monstrous, Daniel’s Veil, Tomb Raider), who wrote the short story, “Desensitized Deirdre,” contained in Moon Lake. Copies of the book will be available for purchase at Meltdown.

Moon Lake is a collection of short stories centered around, well, Moon Lake! It isn’t just any normal body of water—it’s a mysterious portal into the weird, drawing all manner of macabre mysteries to its shores. In the spirit of classic horror tales from EC Comics, Moon Lake combines comedy, horror and adventure into a fantastic anthology, where each story is centered on the strange happenings of Moon Lake. Created by Dan Fogler, contributing writers include Brian Holguin (Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal: Creation Myths Vol. 1), Stefan Hutchinson (Halloween: The First Death of Laurie Strode), Blake Leibel (Syndrome), Tim Seeley (Hack/Slash), R.H. Stavis (Something Monstrous) and Nick Tapalansky (Awakening). Contributing artists include Brooke Allen (A Home for Mr. Easter), Tommy Castillo (Grimm Fairy Tales), Jim Daly (Halloween: 30 Years of Terror), Alex Eckman-Lawn (Awakening), Scott Newman, Robbi Rodriguez (Uncanny X-Force) and Jeff Zornow (Jurassic Park: Dangerous Games). Moon Lake is rated MATURE for nudity, graphic violence and adult content.
