Avatar Press is an independent American publisher of comic books, founded in 1996 by William A. Christensen, and based in Rantoul, Illinois. Avatar initially published only mini-series. They subsequently expanded to other formats. Currently, Avatar publishes several ongoing series. ==History== Avatar Press is most notable for their publishing of "Bad Girl" comics such as ''Pandora''. Other bad girl books include ''Hellina'', ''Lookers'', ''The Ravening'', and Brian Pulido's ''Lady Death''. As part of an effort to expand beyond their reputation as a bad girl publisher, it offered a number of noted creators an opportunity to publish creator-owned books with no content restrictions whatsoever. Among the creators to take them up on their offer was Frank Miller, Warren Ellis, Alan Moore, and Garth Ennis. Lately, the company has taken to licensed comic book adaptations of famous sci-fi and horror shows from movies and television, such as ''RoboCop'', ''Night of the Living Dead'', and ''Friday the 13th''. Avatar also has a strong web presence, launching Ellis' ''FreakAngels'' webcomic and the comics news site Bleeding Cool, helmed by Rich Johnston. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Avatar Press」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
