Newly Announced Publisher and Content Studio Puts Creators First With A New and More Sustainable Business Model Than Any Competitor Last month, the publisher with a mission to change the landscape of comics publishing announced that their first title would be created by Sean Chen, who 30 years earlier led the creative charge of one of modern comics' greatest disruptors: Valiant Entertainment, and moving on to widely acclaimed runs on some of Marvel and DC’s most well-known characters. Now, following the announcement of this inaugural title, 247 announces the next wave of creators leading a change in not only the way that comics are published but the way that creators are paid for their work. The future of 247 Comics' output will be guided by the community who will have unique access to the creative process and creators themselves as well as the ability to monetize their own contributions and their collectibles along the way. 247 Comics Publisher Carl Choi says “Hollywood Mov...

This forthcoming ongoing series is set to launch in May from Image Comics. This exciting comic will also feature a variant cover by Deadly Class artist Wes Craig. The Savage Strength of Starstorm follows orphaned amnesiac high school student Grant Garrison as he attempts to navigate his present and recall his past when a meteor decimates his school.

  This May, Dynamite is proud to roll out a new chapter in the Powers Saga by superstar writer Dan Abnett, as he brings Vampirella to the forefront once more for a thrilling new title that fully questions whether the Daughter of Drakulon can fill a traditional superhero role, in Vampirella vs. The Superpowers !
