Dynamite Entertainment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dynamite Entertainment is a comic book publisher founded in 2005, first producing two Army of Darkness limited series published through Devil's Due Productions until self-publishing their titles later that year.
They focus on comic book adaptations of existing properties, with the only 'original' properties being new interpretations of the public domain classic monsters Dracula, Mr. Hyde, Frankenstein's Monster and the Wolf Man. Currently they hold the rights to publish titles based on films (Army of Darkness, Darkman and Highlander), television series (both original and modern Battlestar Galactica and Xena: Warrior Princess) and literature (Red Sonja and Re-Animator).
Two additional crossovers have been released through other companies, one through Image Comics in 2005 pitting their monsters against Top Cow published characters Witchblade, the Darkness, the Magdalena and Tomb Raider entitled Monster War; and an upcoming 2006 crossover between DC Comics' Claw the Unconquered and Red Sonja via Wildstorm.
