ComiXology To Publish Original Adventure Time, Valiant And Harvey Kurtzman Comics
ComiXology have published original comics before. But this seems to be a step up with specially commissioned, high profile titles with big names and big brands – ComiXology Originals. These books will be digitially only for the ComiXology app and Kindle.
- Adventure Time Marshall Lee Spectacular from BOOM! Studios with three all-new original Marshall Lee stories set in BOOM! Studios' bestselling continuation of Cartoon Network's Adventure Time TV show. The first story features New York Times bestselling writer Mariko Tamaki with artist Audrey Mok, followed by stories teaming up writer Melanie Gillman with artist Trungles and writer S.M. Vidaurri with artist Asia Kendrick-Horton — all found behind a fully painted cover by Fabio Moon. This digital only exclusive is available for pre-order today on comiXology and Kindle for $3.99.
- Valiant High from Valiant Entertainment is a hilarious reimagining of Valiant's award-winning superhero universe by writer Daniel Kibblesmith (The Late Show with Stephen Colbert), artist Derek Charm (Jughead) with a first issue cover by David Lafuente! Before they became the world's most formidable heroes, they were roaming the halls at a super-powered preparatory academy where Aric "X-O Manowar" Dacia is a record-setting running back, Colin "Ninjak" King is a debonair foreign exchange student, and Coach Bloodshot is way too into dodgeball! Now… Faith "Zephyr" Herbert is about to discover it all for the first time as the newest girl in school! Issue #1 (of 4) of this digital only exclusive is available for pre-order today on comiXology and Kindle for $3.99.
- Harvey Kurtzman's Marley's Ghost will see The New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, illustrator Gideon Kendall and editor Josh O'Neill expand and complete Kurtzman's first attempt at the graphic novel form courtesy of the Estate of Harvey Kurtzman and packagers Kitchen, Lind & Associates. Never completed until now, in the 1950s Kurtzman attempted to adapt the Marley's ghost section of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol with over 70 pages of breakdowns. The completed work will be a 100+ page digital only exclusive graphic novel and is available for pre-order today for $9.99. on comiXology and Kindle with a winter 2017 release date.
I was wondering, with the much tauted "digital plateau" how ComiXology intended to expand. This should do it. And New York welcomes a new comic book publisher…
