Senior Comics Editor Steve White explains, “Our first year as Titan Comics has been all about establishing our brand, and proving to retailers and readers that we have a unique voice, a distinctive catalog, and that we can deliver on our promises. Well, we’ve delivered both resurrected and refurbished classics from the backlist and jaw-dropping stunners from the vanguard of the new, so 2014 is going to be all about blowing the bloody doors off!”
Publisher Nick Landau adds, “We’re very excited to be announcing the second wave of our creator owned titles which we’ll be discussing in detail at the New York Comicon. Come see us at the panel on Sunday October 13th at 3.45pm in Room 1A01, meet the creators and be in at the very beginning…!”
