Dynamite Entertainment is the latest publisher to join Neon Ichiban, the new digital comics and manga platform that is currently in an invite-only beta. The public beta will launch soon, and when it does it will include series like ThunderCats, Red Sonja, James Bond, Army of Darkness, Space Ghost, Disney titles, and Vampirella — as well as The Boys and others.
“Dynamite has always been committed to world building and delivering unforgettable stories, from redefining icons like Vampirella, ThunderCats and Red Sonja to breakout hits like The Boys and many other iconic characters,” said Nick Barucci, CEO & Publisher of Dynamite Entertainment via a press release provided to Comic Book Club. “Partnering with Neon Ichiban lets us expand that legacy and bring our comics to fans worldwide on the most innovative digital platform.”
Added David Steinberger, CEO & Co-Founder of Neon Ichiban, “Dynamite has been a perpetual gamechanger of comics and pop culture, redefining legacy franchises and launching bold new ones. Now fans everywhere can digitally dive into some of the most popular comics of the past two decades.”
The perks of Neon Ichiban are that they serve up same-day-as-print comics, as well as the option to read online or off, as well as downloading local copies. There’s also the “I don’t know about that one” function of, per the release, “With participating publishers, digital comics can be transformed into one-of-a-kind collectibles through digital signatures and remarques from top creators—unique pieces that can be cherished or resold with provenance intact. A built-in secondary marketplace allows fans to buy and sell digital comics while ensuring publishers and creators benefit.” So they’re not calling them NFTs, but… Come on.
In any case, Dynamite joins a big list of publishers already on the platform, including Dark Horse, DC, DSTLRY, Kodansha, Marvel, Oni Press, Titan Comics, and Vault Comics.
