Forbidden Planet NYC is pleased to announce that writer/artist Sebastien Samson will be here to sign copies of his new graphic novel My New York Marathon on Thursday November 1st, 2018.
My New York Marathon hasn’t officially released in the States yet (it’s timed to drop a few days before this year’s Marathon), but some of you may have seen/flipped through copies of the book at Humanoids’ NYCC booth. Here’s the publisher’s synopsis for those of you who haven’t seen it and may be interested in picking up a copy:
Sebastien, a quiet and shy teacher, gets lost in the memories of his boyhood, when he was a strong and successful runner. On a whim, he decides to challenge his aging body and crumbling spirit and run the New York Marathon!
From the streets of France to the streets of Brooklyn, Sebastien pushes himself past limits he didn’t even know he had.
A humorous and poignant autobiographical tale…. this inspiring love-letter to the event and to the city that hosts it has already been championed by running heavyweights Jeff Galloway and Amby Burfoot, and endorsed by both the New York Road Runners club and the New York Marathon itself.
So come join us at Forbidden Planet NYC on Thursday November 1st at 6pm and get your copy signed by the author himself! Can’t make it to our event? You can order signed copies via mail on our website.
