Titan Joins Dynamite At New Digital Comics Distributor, Neon Ichiban
Titan Comics joins Dynamite Entertainment at new digital comics distributor, Neon Ichiban, from the people behind Comixology
Expect a lot of individual announcements and similarly themed graphics for a variety of comic book publishers announcing that their libraries of original comic book series and upcoming releases will be available on Neon Ichiban, the new digital comics platform from the people behind Comixology and Dstlry. With Dark Horse, DC, Dstlry, Kodansha, Marvel, Oni Press, Titan Comics and Vault Comics signing up, the first two out of the gate with their press releases are Dynamite and Titan Comics. And Bleeding Cool is putting them side by side, for comparison's sake
"Dynamite has always been committed to world-building and delivering unforgettable stories, from redefining icons like Vampirella, ThunderCats and Red Sonja to breakout hits like The Boys and many other iconic characters," said Nick Barucci, CEO & Publisher of Dynamite Entertainment. "Partnering with Neon Ichiban lets us expand that legacy and bring our comics to fans worldwide on the most innovative digital platform."
"From Tank Girl to Blade Runner, Titan Comics has provided an invaluable home for some of the most beloved modern mythologies in pop culture," added Chip Mosher, CCO & Co-Founder of Neon Ichiban. "Having Titan's catalog on Neon Ichiban means fans worldwide will be able to discover and collect their groundbreaking stories in a new platform."

"Titan has always strived to celebrate both pop culture's most iconic franchises and the bold visions of groundbreaking creators," said Titan Comics Publicity Manager Will O'Mullane. "Partnering with Neon Ichiban gives us the opportunity to bring that spectrum of storytelling—from Conan to Tank Girl—to fans everywhere in a way that's seamless, innovative, and built for the future of comics."
"Dynamite has spent 20 years blending timeless characters with bold creator-owned titles," said Chip Mosher, CCO & Co-Founder of Neon Ichiban. "We're excited to bring their incredible lineup to an even bigger global audience."

"We're proud to welcome Titan to Neon Ichiban and give their incredible stories a new home where fans can read, collect, and connect like never before."
Expect a lot more of these, or at least for Dark Horse, DC, Kodansha, Marvel, Oni Press and Vault Comics. But no Deadpool/Batman for now…
