Join us Thursday, January 20, 2011, at 7pm PST at Meltdown Comics in Los Angeles or at nerdsinbabeland.com/chat in the discussion for our first ever Comic Book-of-the-Month club, focused entirely on The Walking Dead. Learn more about the books, the television series, or just geek-out with a bunch of fellow Walking Dead-Heads. Want to know more? Then read on!

Have you ever wanted to get into comic books but have no interest in superheroes and/or mutants? Or, perhaps you have never thought about getting into comics but happen to be a huge fan of all things horror/zombie/gruesome? Or you are already obsessed with The Walking Dead and just looking for people to geek out about the book and series with? At the meet-up, we will discuss the book series from the beginning, and why it might be the perfect book for you to pick up if you’ve been toying with the idea of getting into graphic novels but haven’t taken the plunge.

Jenna Busch (Moviefone Minute, Huffington Post, Cineboobs) will be leading a discussion on the hit AMC program show based on the series, followed by a discussion lead by Stephanie Wooten from Nerds in Babeland on the best-selling comic book series. In between the discussions we will even provide a zombie make-up tutorial by Jackie Bagwell, an owner & organizer of Ashtoberfest (a week-long festival dedicated to all-things zombie).

All attendees will get 20% off all purchases at Meltdown, Inc during the duration of the event. Can’t be there in person because you don’t live in Los Angeles? Show up to the online chat and receive a discount code good for 20% any online order placed through Meltdown Comics.

What: Comic Book-of-the-Month club.

When: Thursday, January 20, 2011 7PM PST.

Entry fee: $6.00 You’ll also have the opportunity to enter a raffle in order to win a copy of a Walking Dead graphic novel.

Los Angeles – Style Council – LA’s Meltdown Comics Brings the Party to Comic-Con with Nerd Prom 2099.

Liz Ohanesian

Comic-Con, where even the bartenders can be geeky for a few days.

Just because you’re nerdy enough to spend the bulk of your Thursday in line to get the goods on the upcoming Avatar film or blew your dinner money on a Darth Luke USB flash drive doesn’t mean you don’t know how to party. And so the folks at LA’s mecca of comic book art, Meltdown, threw Nerd Prom 2099 — a party where the geeks aren’t necessarily the wallflowers.

Tux T-shirts, a staple of every retro nerd wardrobe.

The special for this evening was the Nerd Prom Bomb, which I overheard people recommend during the course of the night.. Served by four-eyed, cape-crusading bartenders, the Nerd Prom Bomb mixes Tibetan tea and vodka served sake bomb style. It’s a strange drink, but maybe that’s kind of fitting.

Partying hard at Comic-Con

We saw a small crew of people who had practically cosplayed their geekiness, wearing bow ties and horn-rimmed glasses in a costumed way, but even those who showed up in their ordinary con gear looked pretty far removed from what you would normally see in nightclub. Dancing with a backpack filled with electronic equipment and junk food may not be fun, but it can be done. Proving that the Comic-Con crowd isn’t terribly different from the Hollywood crowd, Meltdown brought DJ Franki Chan to the party where he played the usual mix of Daft Punk and MGMT that still seems to pack dance floors. The crowd loved it, just like they loved those Nerd Prom Bombs.
