Monkeybrain Comics has officially transitioned from a publisher of digital-only comics to digital-first comics with the announement that a number of their series will see print by Image Comics and IDW Publishing this summer.

Chris Roberson and Dennis Culver’s Edison Rex will go first, with a collection published by IDW in June. Then, in July, Image Comics's Shadowline imprint will release Masks & Mobsters by Joshua Williamson and Mike Henderson.

“Print collections have been a main goal from the beginning and it’s really exciting to see such a major piece of the plan fall into place,” Monkeybrain's Allison Baker said, “especially since it means even more people get to discover the amazing work of our creators!”

IDW's slate will continue on with Amelia Cole and the Unknown World by writers Adam P. Knave and D.J. Kirkbride and artist Nick Brokenshire premiering in August and titles like Dan Goldman’s Red Light Properties, Kevin Church and Grace Allison’s Wander, and many more to follow.

“Monkeybrain was founded because we love comics,” Chris Roberson said in a release. “And thanks to IDW, we’ll have even more comics to love.”

“Monkeybrain has brought in top creators to launch some of the best original digital comics around,” said Jeff Webber, IDW’s VP of Digital Publishing. “This is a great opportunity for new readers to discover these titles in their local comic shops or bookstores. And the fans that have read the digital versions can add a fine printed collection to their shelves.”
