January 10th 2006 – Bloodstained Productions is proud to announce the addition of Joe Martino’s creations Ripperman and Shadowflame to their already impressive roster.
Joe Martino says “I am happy to be joining the BSPRD team. It is a great step towards both our companies joining together and making the best comics possible. I couldn’t find a better place to bring my creations. Marty is gung-ho and really into what he is doing.”
Martin R. Oakley says “We are really lucky to have such a talent as Joe and his crew coming on board with us. Joe is a consummate professional, and knows what he’s talking about.”
There will be 2 Graphic Novels coming out by Joe Martino in mid 2006.
Shadowflame 10th Anniversary special. This is a complete retelling of the 4 issue mini series that was released way back in 1996. Over half of it has been redrawn by Joe and it was re-inked by Peter Palmiotti. There are also over 20 pages of new, never before seen material that adds to the story and gives more insight to Shadowflame’s struggle. This will be a full color trade. Colors for this book will be handled by Dash Martin on the first chapter and Ian Sokoliwski on the rest.
Ripperman: Fates Warning. This is a follow up to the Graphic Novel of October 2004. It will be Black and White with color covers. It is written by Joe Martino with art by Jeff Austin and Dash Martin. Johnny Lowe does lettering chores on both projects.
Ripperman and Shadowflame will be joining the likes of Beyond Mortality, The WolfBlade Chronicles, Star of Bethlehem, Oblivion and Liturgy: Twilight which will also be released in 2006 by Bloodstained Productions.
