Top Cow Productions was founded by Marc Silvestri in 1992 to publish comics through Image Comics. During the early years of Image Comics, founder Marc Silvestri shared a studio with Jim Lee, where he created his first creator-owned comic book, Cyberforce, as part of Image's initial line-up. After setting up his own studio, Top Cow Productions, he expanded into other comics, launching Codename: Strykeforce, a new Cyberforce series and various spin-offs. As a result of a divorce, Silvestri sold half of Top Cow Studios to Eidos Interactive, though this was bought back years later. After leaving and then rejoining Image Comics as a result of a disagreement with Rob Liefeld, Top Cow developed the likes of Witchblade, The Darkness, Magdalena, Aphrodite IX, and others, as well as creator-owned properties such as Michael Turner's Fathom and Joe's Comics, created exclusively for J. Michael Straczynski, which included Rising Stars and Midnight Nation.
