The 3 Geeks Appear in Indie Comics Magazine's Christmas Issue

Comic book fan favorite and Eisner nominated The 3 Geeks by Rich Koslowski will appear in Indie Comics Magazine #4, a special Christmas issue, scheduled for preorder in Diamond Comic Distributors' October 2011 Previews catalog and available ONLY through Previews, announced Publisher Gary Scott Beatty.

The 3 Geeks launched Koslowski's career and has been a constant in his years in the business of comics. Since the How To Pick Up Girls If You’re A Comic Book Geek one-shot was published in 1997, The 3 Geeks have appeared in 25 comics and four trade paperbacks.

Koslowski won an Ignatz Award for “Best Graphic Novel” in 2001 for Three Fingers, a dark comedy in documentary style about cartoon actors in the '30s and '40s and the barriers they faced in a prejudicial Hollywood. In 2005 Koslowski released The King, his take on the Elvis Presley phenomenon. His BB Wolf and the Three LPs hardcover was released last year with a blues CD. His 12 issue run writing for Marvel Comics Presents was recently released as the trade paperback Weapon Omega.

"I bought the first 3 Geeks one-shot from Rich at the Chicago Comicon 14 years ago and laughed my head off," said Beatty. "I knew then Rich was a great storyteller. His 2007 novel, The List, showed he has a different way of looking at the Christmas season. I was overjoyed when he decided to contribute a 3 Geeks Christmas story to Indie Comics Magazine #4."

Each issue of Indie Comics Magazine features full stories from many indie comic book creators, said Beatty. Short biographies and contact information are included so readers can easily seek out more of the creators' work. Rich Koslowski can be found at richkoslowski.com.
