(July 27, 2008) \u2013 This fall, Devil&rsquo;s Due Publishing is proud to bring one of the most critically acclaimed lines of comic books back to U.S. comic book stores through a publishing partnership with Humanoids and its European sister company Les Humano\u00efdes Associ\u00e9s (\u00ab\u00a0LHA\u00a0\u00bb). Previously published in the U.S. both independently and through DC Comics, Humanoids is one of the premier European comic book publishers\u00a0with a vast library of titles by popular\u00a0European and<!--more-->\u00a0American\u00a0comic creators.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00ab\u00a0The quality of the Humanoids library and brand is unmatched, and the partnership between Humanoids and DDP allows us to do something different with the Humanoids brand than has been done before,\u00a0\u00bb said Stephen Christy, Manager of Development for DDP. \u00ab\u00a0DDP couldn&rsquo;t be happier to finally give American comic fans the chance to see unpublished work by industry legends like Kurt Busiek, John Cassaday and Butch Guice among others, as well as continuing to bring some of the best European creators to American shores.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The DDP\/Humanoids partnership will be a prestige imprint publishing no more than 2-3 serialized comic books and graphic novels per month. The goal will be to feature titles by prominent American creators alongside titles by top-notch European creators in the standard American comic book format.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u00ab\u00a0We have been very impressed by DDP&rsquo;s growing success, in particular in the audiovisual arena. Considering that Humanoids plans to increase its collaboration with American artists and writers, it was key to establish a strong partnership with a dynamic player in the industry, exactly like DDP\u00a0\u00bb said Fabrice A. Giger, co-owner and Chairman of Humanoids \/ LHA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u00ab\u00a0One of our main goals is to turn some of our properties into film, TV series and video games,\u00a0\u00bb added co-owner and film producer Pierre Spengler (original SUPERMAN trilogy), \u00ab\u00a0There is just such a tremendous potential in a virtually untapped catalog.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0The imprint launches in November with I Am Legion #1 (of 6), illustrated by John Cassaday, and the rollout will continue in December with The Zombies Who Ate the World #1 (of 8), illustrated by Guy Davis and written by Jerry Frissen. Additional titles such as Kurt Busiek&rsquo;s Redhand, and Metal, illustrated by Butch Guice, will follow, as well as the completion of classic titles such as The Metabarons and The Technopriests.
