Art! Art! Art!

There's a bunch of awesome stuff I'm eager to talk about, but I have to bite my tongue until official annoucements are done. Most of these are coming during the course of this year, so all I can say is stay tuned to this blog and our facebook group.

For the moment, I'm afraid you're going to have to settle with some ridiculously great-looking art. (Yeah, I didn't think you'd mind either!). Let's get Started:

Upcoming Page from Violet Descends: A Day in a Life short by Ivonne Falcon.

Remember that black & white Hybrid Genesis page from Ozzy I showed you last December? Well, look at those pretty colors now! They're courtesy of artist/colorist Luis Santiago.

Preview page from Ana Bruno's Hellion Rider #1 coming soon! Letters by Carlos Mangual.

Enough peeking. Be back soon for your next dose in awesomeness.

Happy Holidays from RBA!

Best Wishes on the New Year!

2009 was the best year yet for RBA.

- We released 7 comics this year, including our bestseller Gunbreed: Ghost Town Resurrected. - Our website (designed by our awesome Art Director AC_Osorio) launched big time, allowing for a dynamic look and introducing the online store service with Ka-Blam.

- We acquired Rikky Carrion as Marketing Director of our studio, and as I said before, you'll be seeing his big plans for RBA come to frutition in 2010.

- We went to four Florida conventions, one in San Francisco and four in Puerto Rico. (BTW, scroll down for a few pics fro Kaisen, our las convention of the year).

- We're starting to get noticed by some sites including Comicmonsters.com and From the Tomb Magazine.

- And to close the year with more good news, scroll down to check out the ChikiMange/Hot Topics free comic.

It may sound cliche, but we couldn't have done any of this without your support and enthusiasm for our products. We're working hard to make next year even better, so stay tuned.

Have a happy 2010!
