Red Giant Entertainment Inc. (OTCQB: REDG) has announced that the
first issue of its teen superhero comic book SUPERNOVAS will be
offered as a free "Digital First" comic through partner Keenspot
relationship with comiXology -- the revolutionary digial comics
platform available across the iPhone, iPad, Android, Kindle Fire,
Windows 8 and the Web.
SUPERNOVAS, which Red Giant earlier this month announced is
being developed into a feature-length animated film, is a series
that follows four ordinary teens from a small town in upstate New
York. While observing a gamma ray burst, they and the town's nearby
Supermax prison are irradiated with massive energy that mutates
them and grants each of them extraordinary powers. Taking up the
mantle of superheroes, they must face off against the powerful
inmates who now wreak havoc on the world at large.
"We're thrilled to team with our digital distributor Keenspot to
offer this landmark first issue for free on comiXology," said Red
Giant CEO Benny Powell. "It is enlightening to realize just how
powerful a fan base, comic book readers, can be. The fact that
comiXology sales on the iPad platform continue to outperform even
game apps with household names like ANGRY BIRDS and TEMPLE RUN is
obvious proof of that."
In addition to SUPERNOVAS #1, Red Giant is also offering a
64-page giant-size special issue of Red Giant's top-selling hit
WAYWARD SONS: LEGENDS for free on comiXology. The TYTANS SPECIAL is
an illustrated guide to the "bad guys" of the WAYWARD SONS
universe, the Tytans. The Tytans' arch nemeses, the Ulympeans,
received their own 91-page giant-size handbook earlier this
year.
Red Giant Entertainment titles can be found under the Keenspot
publishers' page on comiXology:
