Morrisville, NC. – Oct. 25th, 2013 – Digital publisher Myfutprint.com and four of the world’s most popular webcomic creators today announced Saturday AM, a dedicated brand for original action-packed manga. Saturday AM will consist of a line of digital comic books, merchandise and an interactive website, which will host new and exclusive content. The site will publish creator interviews and detailed character information over the following weeks until the debut of the digital comic on November 23, 2013.
Saturday AM is anchored by five manga-inspired webcomic titles that have garnered acclaim, page views and social media fans from around the globe. Many of the Saturday AM titles (Apple Black; Bully Eater; Comatose; Massively Multiplayer World of GHOSTS and POSBOTS) have generated excitement over the last few years but have lacked professional support for growing the properties into successful franchises. The team behind Saturday AM will work to develop promising new talent as well as ensure that creators earn a living from their intellectual property.
Saturday AM’s website offers archived editions of webcomics, video tutorials and more. A line of T-shirts will debut in late 2013 with specially designed illustrations to attract new fans to the medium. The digital comic, launching November 23, will consist of exclusive new stories of popular action-packed titles that will help to create regular, paying customers.
“I am so excited for the launch of Saturday AM,” said Odunze Oguguo (a.k.a. Whyt Manga), creator of Apple Black. “I hope our work will excite readers and also inspire other webcomic creators.”
“I’ve wanted to create Saturday AM since I was an executive in the video game business” said Frederick L. Jones, Creator of Massively Multiplayer World of GHOSTS and Founder of MyFutprint.com. “I think that the next great phenomenon like Batman or Pokemon will come from webcomics and crafted Saturday AM to be a place where new creators can flourish.”
Saturday AM is a subsidiary label of MyFutprint.com. Fans can visit saturday-am.com for more information about the brand and the creators.
