Publisher's summary

Get ready for Klingon-speaking cosplayers, cutthroat convention politics, and the unlikeliest heroes ever known inside the epic dark comedy Battle at the Comic Expo.

Ron Lionel is the hottest creator working in comic books today. His series, The Enduring, sells out every month and is set to become a major motion picture. Ron has no problem using his status to get what he wants, whether that be special treatment from his publisher or seducing fangirls into bed.

Joe Cotter, on the other hand, gave up his dreams of being a writer years ago and now lives for a steady paycheck. Joe has a sense of right and wrong that was born from years of reading comics, and as the security chief for America's Finest Comic Book Expo, he's as strong-willed as any hero with a power ring.

Enter Velma, an obsessed fan with some disturbing questions about The Enduring. When her righteous plan to gather answers backfires, the two men are swept into a dangerous world where heroes and villains don't come from spider bites or alien planets and don't have simple back stories.

Can the man with the mightiest ego work with the world's most immovable force to save each other and stop Velma's demented vision? Or will they end up being the catalyst that helps destroy the largest comics event in the US?

Find out, true believer, in the epic dark comedy Battle at the Comic Expo.

Critic reviews

"Andreoli captures the absurdity and the beauty within this tribe of lost souls, and along the way manages to tell a compelling yarn. But the real pleasure of this novel is in its authenticity of place and character.” (Michael Rymer, director and producer, Battlestar Galactica, Hannibal, Picnic at Hanging Rock)

"It’s a love letter to heroism and the people who believe in it most.” (C.J. Abedi, best-selling YA fantasy author of the FAE trilogy)
