If you would just focus on telling the stories of the wrestlers themselves it would work, And I am happy to say after attending the Boom WWE panel today, I have faith that they may be the ones that get it.
The panel included Filip Sablik, Bryce Carson, Eric Powell, Eric Harburn, and Dan Mora, fresh[...]
Svensson quickly writes for Bleeding Cool.
At the end of BOOM! Studios's panel at SDCC, marketing master Filip Sablik broke with tradition by actually announcing a new title Slam! a series teased by BOOM! on social media earlier this week, featuring roller derby girls It will be written by New York Times best selling novelist, and[...]
This morning I read the first issue of Strange Attractors, the first issue of a new series from BOOM! Studios The book is written by Charles Soule with art by Greg Scott and Sou Lee and it's about math It's also about the resiliency of New York City as compared to places like New Orleans[...]
What I don't see is a publisher extending multiple series to ongoings.
Which is why I took note when Boom! Studios announced three of their limited series were being greenlit to ongoing status in a matter of four weeks.
First, Joyride was announced with an exclusive series trailer via io9, which resulted in the first issue selling[...]
The NY Times has run an article highlighting the Boom Box imprint at Boom! Studios, including the likes of Lumberjanes, Giant Days and Goldie Vance, and also mentioning a brand new series for August.
It confirms rumours that Bleeding Cool had previously reported, stating the James Tynion IV has a Lumberjanes-similar series lined up for the publisher.
Backstagers[...]
Bleeding Cool understands from certain people close to writer Grant Morrison that Fox has optioned his comic book Klaus for development as a feature film.
Published by Boom! and drawn by Dan Mora, Klaus tells the warrior origin of the man who would one day be Father Christmas.
Boom! Studios have an ongoing relationship with Fox, with a first[...]
Boom!

Dark Horse Comics has announced a new series, created with Boom! Studios, that takes Tarzan to… yes, the Planet Of The Apes. By Tim Seeley, David Walker, Fernando Dagnino and Duncan Fegredo on covers.
It does kinda make sense, doesn't it?
Tarzan on the Planet of the Apes sees Tarzan and his ape brother Caesar, raised as brothers but separated by[...]
Boom! Studios newest original series, Joyride, has it's Final Order Cutoff with comic book stores today The teen Sci-Fi adventure series by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly (Batman & Robin Eternal, Grayson) and Marcus To (Nightwing, New Warriors) could be the breakout ongoing hit Boom! has been desperately searching for since The Woods.
The parallels are certainly there[...]
Svensson writes for Bleeding Cool.
So, Boom Studios doesn't do the average sort of comic publisher panel, where they show a slideshow with covers of upcoming books and announce creative teams They have the internet for that What they do is talk Their panels get creators together to discuss their philosophies and thoughts about comics.

We also called BOOM! Box's second success story, Giant Days Earlier this week, we called your attention to Jonesy doubling its initial orders and selling out in a similar fashion.
The new Boom! Box series in April, Goldie Vance, could be the biggest one yet Fine, maybe not bigger than Lumberjanes But here's why you'll want to bet[...]
Hot on the heels of this weekend's second annual In Store Convention Kick-Off, I've understand that Jonesy #1 has sold out at the distributor level.
Jonesy is the latest hit from Boom! Box, home of Lumberjanes and Giant Days, written by Sam Humphries (Weirdworld) and Caitlin Rose Boyle (Buck n' Lou & The Night Crew) My[...]
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #1 certainly had a lot of exclusive retailer and event covers to help launch it. Selling over 100,000 should put it into the

And led to the aftermarket pushing the prices up the comic.
Well, looks like retailers weren't taking the chance on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #1.

So, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #0 went to second print before all the orders came in.
Boom Studios thought they might need an additional 5000 copies, so that's what they printed.
The full orders came in for 15,000 copies.
Sorry folks, that means that stores will only get 1 in every 3 copies of the comic they ordered.

The Darkwing Duck comic book has had a rather interesting history.
The comic was originally published by Boom but saw its editor, Aaron Sparrow, leave the company rather quickly When reprinted by Joe Books, the comic was rescripted throughout by Sparrow, with the implication that he had managed to co-write future issues visa conversations with the artist James[...]

So if someone's highest page rate was for DC, while Boom was close, only the DC rate will be reported. I expect this kind of thing will come But for now this is a good start – for information, for conversation, or comparison – and greater participation will only make it better.
