Image Comics Summer Expo

Summer 2015 announcements

Last week at the Image Expo in San Francisco the publisher, currently riding high and continuing to gain momentum in the comics business, announced a whole new slate of comics for the coming year.

In his keynote address Eric Stephenson started by thanking all of those involved with the day to day activities of Image Publishing; the ones who are responsible for production and promotion, before illustrating just how successful creator owned comics have become over the last 10 plus years. He also highlighted a section for a previous speech by Robert Kirkman (writer/creator of The Walking Dead) “the more people who do creator-owned work, the easier it will be to sell creator-owned work.” And of course, the more people who buy creator owned work, the more creator owned work can be produced.

The following are all new titles that were announced at the one day Expo and feature some massive names with new comics and some lesser known creators with equally exciting ventures.

Are there any in particular that you, consumers, are excited about? Let us know in the comments below.
