AM’s diverse collection of titles received another marked boost with the help of Roddenberry Entertainment. The company will release Days Missing: Enox as a full-color comic celebrating the sci-fi series’ epic conclusion this fall. Also recently announced are AM’s plans to release a new series of Stargate Universe comics, following their success with the Stargate Atlantis series. The SGU books will stay with the same format used in SGA, and continue directly from where the television series left off.

The company’s all-ages comics will also be on display, from their hit Pink Panther comics, which will be released as a collected trade hard cover edition this November, to the new adventures of everyone’s favorite funnymen – The Three Stooges – to be featured in this year’s Halloween ComicFest in October.

“Baltimore Comic-Con is an East Coast tradition that we’re proud to be a part of this year,” said Michael Bornstein, American Mythology’s Publisher. “Many of the various creators, writers, and artists attending this year have participated with the convention in years past, but this time they’ll be there under the American Mythology banner, and we couldn’t be more delighted to have such an eclectic and talented group of individuals representing us on such a wide array of comics and upcoming projects. We’re uber-excited with where we’ve come as a publisher in such a short amount of time, and the folks there that weekend have played a large part in getting us there. Make sure you stop by the booth and chat with each of them. We’re just getting started and have some amazing surprises and events coming fans’ way in the near future that I’m sure will keep readers turning our pages!” |
