For over 10 years we devoted ourselves to an industry for which good work is irrelevant, because people can't stop themselves from buying it. An industry that never improves, that's misogynist and borderline racist. But there was money in it. A lot of money. In fact, our entire business depended on it. We knew it wasn't good for us, but we couldn't stop.

So as of today, Raven Entertainment Studio will no longer take comic book accounts. We know it's going to be hard. If you're interested in comic work, here's a list of agencies that do it well: IDW, Dark Horse, Bluewater Productions, Image Comics, and Zenoscope.
As for us, we welcome all other business because we're certain that our best work is still ahead of us.
