Defiant Comics
Defiant Comics was a comic book publishing imprint of Enlightened Entertainment Partners, LP. Defiant was established in 1993 by former Marvel Comics and Valiant Comics editor-in-chief Jim Shooter.〔"Newswatch: Shooter Forms New Comics Company: Defiant Comics is New Imprint" ''The Comics Journal'' #155 (January 1993), p. 23.〕
== Publication history ==
Defiant was founded in the wake of Jim Shooter's departure from Valiant. After attempting, unsuccessfully, to retain his partial ownership of Voyager Communications (Valiant's parent company) Shooter founded a new company that included some Valiant artists and writers on its staff. He formed a business venture with The River Group to help finance Defiant.
In early 1993, Defiant announced that its first title, ''Plasm'', would be released as a series of trading cards that could be put together in an album to form "issue #0".〔"Newswatch: Defiant Shooter to Produce Plasm," ''The Comics Journal'' #158 (Apr. 1993), pp. 25-26.〕 Upon hearing the news, Marvel Comics threatened a lawsuit against Defiant, claiming the new title violated a Marvel UK trademark for their book/character Plasmer. Though Defiant changed the title to ''Warriors of Plasm'', Marvel continued its lawsuit. While the court eventually ruled in favor of Defiant,〔"Legal News: Defiant Wins Judgement on Plasm," ''The Comics Journal'' #163 (November 1993), p. 14.〕 the legal process depleted the company's capital, having cost over $300,000 in legal fees.〔(Jim Shooter Interview: Part 2 ), Comic Book Resources, October 10, 2000〕 Defiant ceased publication in Summer 1995.
