Skybound Entertainment is a comics publishing imprint founded by Robert Kirkman in 2010, after he became a partner in Image Comics in 2008.[1] It is the first new studio established in connection with Image Comics since the company was founded in the early 1990s, joining Highbrow Entertainment, Todd McFarlane Productions, Top Cow Productions, and Shadowline.
Kirkman's previous and current creator-owned work has been brought under the Skybound umbrella. In addition, Skybound has announced plans to publish outside works – dubbed "Skybound Originals" – in exchange for a partnership stake in the properties.[2] Witch Doctor by Brandon Seifert and Lukas Ketner was the first Skybound Original published by the company, beginning in June 2011.[2]
J. J. Didde is a business partner in Skybound. Sina Grace is the imprint's editorial director.[3]
